About 1010 Sw College Avenue

Steeped in history and Southern charm, this stately 1945 home offers a rare opportunity in the heart of Lenoir, a vibrant foothills community just 20 minutes from Blowing Rock. Rich in character, this remarkable property has served many roles over the years—from the residence and medical practice of a local physician to a cherished family home and, more recently, a successful Airbnb. Inside, you’ll find beautifully preserved original oak hardwood floors, seven fireplaces (most with gas logs), and timeless architectural details throughout. The nostalgic sunroom features classic terrazzo flooring, creating the perfect place to relax and unwind. Offering up to six bedrooms and four full baths, the spacious floor plan provides exceptional flexibility for a large family, multi-generational living, vacation rental potential, or a live/work arrangement. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a generous covered front porch—where generations gathered for meals and conversation—and a large open rear deck perfect for entertaining. Zoned Business/Commercial while still eligible for residential use, this unique property opens the door to countless possibilities including professional offices, boutique lodging, retail, restaurant or continued residential living. Convenient public parking located directly behind the home further enhances its commercial appeal. Whether you’re searching for a distinctive residence, an investment opportunity, or the perfect place to grow your business, this one-of-a-kind property offers history, versatility, and endless potential in an exceptional location. The certified measure report from Carolina MeasurePro does not agree with the tax card.
