About The Storybook Cottage, NC

Timeless Charm Meets Event-Ready Elegance in This 1935 Historic Haven Make memories magical in this beautifully preserved 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath historic home, dating circa 1935, where original craftsmanship meets warm, versatile design. Located in a National Register of Historic Places neighborhood, this quaint house offers an ideal backdrop for cozy and creative retreats, chic events, styled shoots, gregarious gatherings, and luxurious micro-weddings. On the first floor, the flow is effortless: from kitchen to dining, entertainment, living, and sunroom. The front and backyard terraces are private and elegant spaces that invites your story to be written right here. Features included in the Listing: Outdoor Terraces for Mingling and Celebrating Photo Vignettes in Light-Filled Main Living Area, Sunroom, or Duskier Entertainment Space Full Kitchen and Prep Areas Changing and Parent/Nursing Spaces with Full-Length Mirror Upstairs Basic A/V Set-up either Inside or Outside Additional Features: Onsite DJ Available $70/hr Event/Local Vendor Coordination $40/hr Partnerships Take a Tour of our Spaces: Main Living Area ~ Classic Warmth & Conversational Flow Step into a luminous living space that radiates warmth and versatility. Anchored by a plush velvet tufted sofa and framed by crisp white walls and rich hardwood floors, the room seamlessly blends mid-century and traditional design elements. A vintage-inspired area rug brings texture and refinement, while eclectic armchairs and modern accents invite guests to gather and converse. The fireplace, adorned with original millwork, adds gravitas to the room, while a modern ceiling fan above and streamlined furniture keep the look fresh and contemporary. French doors open outward, offering a striking view and easy access to the adjoining sunroom, enhancing the intimate experience. Sunroom ~ A Magical, Light-Filled Retreat Perhaps the crown jewel of the property, the sunroom is a show-stopper. With its arched window, exposed brick walls, and geometric jute rug, the space is equal parts whimsical and serene. Whether used as a cozy cocktail nook, art gallery vignette, or pre-event lounge, this room offers ambiance that's unforgettable. Evening light dances through the glass panes, giving the space a golden, candlelit glow that transforms it into a magical setting after dark. Kitchen, Dining, & Entertainment Spaces ~ Seamless Flow Just off the main living area, the kitchen, dining, and entertainment zones offer flexible configurations for gatherings large and small. In the kitchen, natural light, warm finishes, and a soft vintage palette meet classic touches like open shelving and butcher-block countertops, modernized with subtle hardware. Appliances are modern where needed and styled to blend in with the space's historic bones. A service bar and circular flow allows hosts or caterers to not be isolated and allows for smooth movement of food, drinks, and guests during events. With both a more intimate eating/creating nook as well as open flexible space and classic details like picture molding and built-ins throughout, the space is versatile for dinner parties, intimate concerts, wellness events, or creative workshops. Outdoor Terraces ~ Private & Inviting The centerpiece of entertainment in this home is around the rear of the home. A charming terrace is ideal for al fresco dining, photo shoots, or elegant micro-weddings and receptions. Surrounded by historic brickwork and a gardeners' paradise, this area offers a secluded yet spacious extension to the home's entertaining capacity. The front yard, surrounded by a fence and anchored with a two-person swing, invites guests to mingle in the open air and enjoy the gently landscaped elegance that bespeaks this space.
