Property Description
Exquisitely maintained, remodeled, and restored, this stately Colonial Revival estate is proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1909, the John W. Graham House stands as a cornerstone of Aberdeen's Historic District. Once home to John W. Graham—bank officer and chairman of the Moore County Board of Education—and his wife, Kate Blue, daughter of Aberdeen Rockfish Railroad founder John Blue—this residence is steeped in legacy and architectural significance.
The home showcases timeless features including a 210-degree wraparound front porch, ten-foot ceilings, eight-foot pocket doors, original heart pine flooring, and tiger oak fireplaces. It retains five original coal fireplaces, transom windows, and stained glass in the formal foyer and sitting room. The fireplace in the front foyer has been fitted with gas logs, though they have not been recently inspected or used. The striking asymmetrical façade is defined by Tuscan columns, a pedimented entrance bay, and a dramatic two-story semi-octagonal bay.
Inside, the interiors honor the home's original style while incorporating gentle modern updates. Carefully curated antiques and period décor create a seamless blend of history and comfort, and many of these pieces may convey with an acceptable offer, offering a truly turnkey opportunity. The bathrooms have all been fully remodeled, including a luxurious primary ensuite that was reimagined from a former closet and small room, now featuring a walk-in tiled shower with glass door and a double sink vanity.
The kitchen has been updated for modern functionality while preserving charm, with solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances from Kee's, a Wolf gas range, a walk-in pantry, and exposed brick walls that continue throughout the upstairs hallway, bathroom, and a bedroom. Additional highlights include a butler's pantry with original cabinetry, custom chandeliers, ornate medallions, original wallpaper in one upstairs bedroom, and professionally tinted windows for added privacy and energy efficiency. All custom drapes will convey.
Outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, with an expansive wraparound porch, a fenced backyard bordered by a stone wall, and a storage shed. This home is ideal for entertaining and offers a natural flow throughout.
Recent improvements since the last purchase include new gutters, soffits, and kitchen support piers in 2024, a rebuilt retaining wall on the side elevation in 2025, and sewer lines. Renovation included replacement of HVAC systems (2021) by 4 Seasons and is maintained by 4 Seasons, updated ductwork, new plumbing 2021, new electric 2021, a crawl space dehumidifier. The home also has a termite contract with BugOut in place.
A significant added benefit is the assumable VA loan with an interest rate of 6.124, with an approximate loan balance of $527,000. Buyers do not have to be military or former military to assume the loan, and no appraisal is typically required, making this an outstanding financing opportunity.
This property is also an exceptional candidate for a bed-and-breakfast or turnkey Airbnb. Its location directly across from Aberdeen's new green space park, soon to be modern library, and the Artists League, just steps from downtown shopping and dining, offers unbeatable charm and walkable access to the heart of the community.
This one-of-a-kind property must be seen to be fully appreciatedexperience the craftsmanship, thoughtful renovations, and timeless elegance of the John W. Graham House.
