Rare Historic District Opportunity — Iconic 1920s Craftsman Airplane Bungalow

Located just one block from Downtown Morganton, this remarkable custom-renovated home offers a rare blend of architectural significance, rich history, and modern luxury. Influenced by both the Craftsman movement and Prairie School design, the home was built by R.O. Huffman, son of the founder of Drexel Furniture.

A stunning 547-square-foot front porch welcomes you home, featuring restored original hardwood flooring and the home's original Dutch entry door with a matching screen. Inside, the inviting living room showcases a fireplace with gas logs, a dramatic custom-vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, and beautifully refinished hardwood floors that continue throughout the home, preserving its timeless character while enhancing everyday comfort.

The extensively renovated kitchen blends style and function with KitchenAid appliances, including a commercial-style gas range, custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, a center island, pantry, designer lighting, and an open-concept layout ideal for entertaining. A spacious dining room connects the kitchen and great room, creating a natural flow for gatherings and daily living.

The main level features a private primary suite with an updated bath and direct access to the fenced saltwater pool area, creating a peaceful retreat. Two additional bedrooms—perfect for guests, home offices, or flexible living spaces—share a hall bath complete with a jacuzzi tub. A bonus room in the partially above-grade basement offers endless possibilities as a fitness room, playroom, media room, or additional bedroom.

Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath featuring original tile floors and walls, vintage fixtures, and a beautifully refinished tub/shower. This level also includes oversized walk-in closets, custom built-ins, a cedar closet, and a walk-in attic providing exceptional storage. A new HVAC system was installed (2026) to serve the upper level.

Historic details abound throughout the home, including original functioning door hardware with skeleton keys, vintage switch plate, brass thresholds, and brick handcrafted on-site during the home's construction. A full basement and detached garage—originally connected to the home by a columned pergola—offer additional possibilities, including potential use as an ADU, guest quarters, studio, or Airbnb. Behind the garage, a private garden sanctuary provides a peaceful outdoor escape, while an added parking area enhances convenience.

Rich in history and architectural authenticity, yet thoughtfully updated for modern living, this exceptional property occupies one of Morganton's most desirable locations. Enjoy being just steps from downtown dining, shopping, breweries, and entertainment while remaining only minutes from Lake James, Pisgah National Forest, and the endless hiking, biking, and outdoor recreation opportunities of Western North Carolina.
