Under $200K, No HOA, Nearly Half an Acre: Meet 2979 N NC 111 Hwy in Goldsboro
Let's be honest. Finding a move-in-ready home with a garage, a yard, and zero HOA for $199,494 is starting to feel like spotting a unicorn. So when this one hit our desk, we knew it wasn't going to stay quiet for long.
Welcome to 2979 N NC 111 Hwy, Goldsboro, NC 27534.
Classic Charm, Modern Comfort
Built in 1956, this home has the kind of timeless design that newer builds keep trying to imitate. It has been updated and is move-in ready, so you get the character without the project list. The front porch is begging for a rocking chair, and the 0.46-acre rural lot gives you the peace and privacy that subdivision living just can't match.
No HOA means no one is going to send you a letter about your mailbox. It's your land, your rules, your freedom.
A Layout That Actually Works
Step inside and the main level opens up to a bright, open-concept living space with a kitchen island that's ready for morning coffee, homework, or hosting. Right off the main living area is a flexible room that can be whatever you need it to be: a dining room, a home office, a craft space, or the spot where the Christmas tree finally fits.
There's also a downstairs bedroom, which is a big win for guests, aging parents, or anyone who'd rather skip the stairs. Head upstairs and you'll find two more bedrooms and a full bath, so everyone gets their own space without anyone getting in each other's way.
Add in an attached garage, and you've got a home that checks the boxes buyers usually pay a lot more for.
Location Without the Hassle
Tucked in the Seymour Johnson AFB area, this home keeps you close to the base while still feeling a world away from traffic and noise. I-42 is nearby, making the commute to Smithfield, Wilson, Rocky Mount, Clayton, and Raleigh a lot more manageable than you'd expect from a spot this peaceful.
Who Is This Home Perfect For?
If you're a first-time buyer tired of watching rent go up, a military family looking for space and independence near base, or someone who's been dreaming of a little breathing room outside a subdivision, this one deserves a spot on your tour list. It's also a smart pick for anyone wanting a home that keeps the monthly payment friendly without giving up space or style.
A few things worth knowing so there are no surprises: the home is on a crawl space foundation, uses a septic system, and is served by county water. We're always happy to walk you through what that means for day-to-day living and ownership.
Homes Like This Don't Wait Around
Under $200K, move-in ready, no HOA, nearly half an acre, and a garage? We'd be surprised if this one sits for long.
