Property Description
Welcome to 601 Pennell Street NE in Lenoir, North Carolina—a timeless all-brick ranch home that beautifully blends classic construction with modern comfort. Perfectly positioned in one of Lenoir's most desirable established neighborhoods, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence delivers true one-level living with the added benefit of an unfinished basement, providing exceptional flexibility for storage, workshop space, or future expansion.
Built in 1969, this home showcases the craftsmanship and solid construction that have made brick ranch homes in the North Carolina foothills so enduring. From the moment you arrive, the stately brick exterior, two-car garage, and covered front porch create an inviting presence that feels both welcoming and refined. Step inside to find 1,819 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, where natural light fills each room and neutral tones provide a warm, move-in-ready backdrop for any style.
The front living room offers generous dimensions and a picture window that frames the morning glow over Hibriten Mountain, one of Lenoir's most recognizable landmarks. The kitchen features ample cabinetry and updated counters. A formal dining area connects seamlessly to the kitchen, creating an effortless flow for entertaining or everyday living and easy access to the brick patio—the perfect setting for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or simply enjoying the privacy of your fenced backyard.
The primary suite offers an en-suite bath and double closets, while two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guest rooms, a home office, or creative space. The laundry area is located on the main level, reinforcing the appeal of true single-story living.
Downstairs, the full unfinished basement opens the door to countless possibilities—finish it for a home gym, media room, or hobby workshop, or keep it as abundant, dry storage space. The two-car garage provides easy parking and direct access to the main level, a rare and valuable feature for homes of this era.
Outside, the fenced backyard offers a private retreat surrounded by mature trees and thoughtful landscaping, ideal for pets, gardening, or quiet afternoons in the sun. The brick patio extends the living space outdoors, and the covered front porch invites you to unwind while taking in peaceful views of the foothills.
