Home Tour Information

Interested in touring one of our homes?

Pre-screening is required before a showing can be scheduled. Whether you're looking to rent or purchase, we start with a brief pre-screening call to review your qualifications, answer your questions, and walk you through the showing process.

For rental properties, we'll also review the qualification requirements so you know what to expect before visiting the home. It's a simple conversation that helps us make sure we're starting on the right foot.

A note about Sundays: Our office is closed, but we're still available to assist with previously confirmed Sunday showings.

More about the Auralia experience

Welcome! We're so glad you found us.

At Auralia Residential, we believe finding the right home should be exciting, not overwhelming. Whether you're searching for your next rental or preparing to purchase a home, we're here to make the experience a little more personal and a lot less complicated.

We value your time, and we know you have questions. That's why every showing starts with a pre-screening call. It's where we review your qualifications, learn what matters to you, explain what comes next, and make sure you have everything you need before you tour.

Real estate is personal, and we believe every conversation should be too.

You'll find a friendly team that believes in clear communication, honest guidance, and being there when you need us. From that first phone call through move-in or closing day, we want you to feel informed, comfortable, and confident about your next move.

And if you've already scheduled a Sunday showing, you're all set! Although our office is closed on Sundays so our team can enjoy time with their families, we'll still be available to help with property access and anything you need during your confirmed tour.

We're not simply opening a door. We're helping you open the door to your next chapter.

Now for the fun part. Let's find a home you'll truly love calling your own. We can't wait to meet you!

Auralia Residential proudly serves buyers and renters throughout Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Apex, Garner, Wake Forest, Fuquay-Varina, Clayton, and surrounding Greater Triangle communities.

Property Description

A timeless home located in Tarboro's Historic District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This exceptional property offers 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with refined architectural details and a thoughtfully designed layout ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. Refinished original quarter-sawn heart-pine floors, soaring ceilings, intricate moldings, crown molding, and original windows with plantation shutters showcase the home's rich character throughout. Four fireplaces—three with gas logs and one wood-burning—add warmth and charm. The gourmet kitchen features an open eat-in design with a movable island, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, glass-front display cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting and outlets, a built-in microwave, generous storage, and striking stained-glass doors. Formal and informal living spaces flow beautifully and include a spacious dining room, light-filled sunroom, and custom study with built-ins. Updated bathrooms, including a walk-in shower, and a laundry room with custom doors add modern convenience (washer and dryer convey). Outside, enjoy beautiful zoysia grass, mature landscaping, a stunning private courtyard, charming side porch, irrigation system, rain gutters, and a storage shed. The partially finished basement with exterior entrance, lined walls, and drainage system provides outstanding storage and flexible space for hobbies, projects, or home maintenance. Major improvements include a newer roof (2021), dual-fuel HVAC systems (2024 and 2022), basement dehumidifier, and hot water heater—offering peace of mind while preserving the home's historic integrity. A rare opportunity to own one of Tarboro's treasured historic homes, where architectural beauty, timeless craftsmanship, and thoughtful updates come together seamlessly. Located in one of North Carolina's most charming historic towns, Tarboro is recognized as a North Carolina Certified Retirement Community, offering residents a vibrant downtown, rich history, cultural attractions, and a welcoming sense of community. Step into timeless Southern charm at this beautifully preserved 1928 home, where historic character meets thoughtful modern updates. Located along one of Tarboro's beautiful historic streets, this distinctive home offers the craftsmanship and architectural details that make older homes so special—without sacrificing today's comforts. Inside, soaring ceilings, gorgeous quarter-sawn heart pine floors, abundant natural light, detailed millwork, plantation shutters, stained-glass doors, and four fireplaces create warmth and character throughout. The updated kitchen is designed for everyday living and entertaining, while spacious gathering areas, a sunroom, study, and flexible living spaces provide plenty of room to relax, work, and host. Outside, a private courtyard surrounded by mature landscaping creates an unexpected retreat, complemented by a charming side porch, irrigation, storage, and a partially finished basement with exterior access. Major improvements offer added peace of mind, including a 2021 roof, dual-fuel HVAC systems installed in 2022 and 2024, replacement windows, updated bathrooms, and additional improvements throughout. Convenient to historic downtown Tarboro, the Town Common, dining, shopping, cultural attractions, and community amenities, this home offers the opportunity to enjoy small-town living surrounded by history and architectural beauty. Tarboro is also recognized as a Certified NC Retirement Community with convenient access to Rocky Mount and Greenville. If you've dreamed of owning a historic home but don't want to take on a major restoration, this may be the one you've been waiting for.
