ON-SITE live auction featuring ON-LINE simulcast bidding option. Historic 1901 home and gardens in the heart of Manteo, NC! (On the famed North Carolina Outer Banks) This property WILL SELL at or above a minimum bid of $325,000!

This beautiful Colonial Revival style home is sold with 2 lots totaling nearly one-half acre and includes fabulous gardens and gazebo areas suitable for garden parties, weddings or any formal entertaining, not to mention being the perfect oasis for morning coffee or evening drinks. Known as the Forbes-Nixon House (W.G. Forbes was the first mayor of Manteo) this home underwent major renovations in 2006 by noted builder Calvin Gibbs, including a new wing built in the original style. Modern conveniences and additions blend with the original home in a seamless, yet livable marriage.

Current zoning would allow for uses such as a Bed & Breakfast or VRBO or use as a special events venue. Of course, one would be hard pressed not to wish to make this their permanent residence and enjoy all that Manteo has to offer within a short stroll.

30 day no finance contingent closing.
