Classic Brick 4-Bed, 3-Bath Home on 0.5-Acre Lot
Step through the front door of 129 Hazelwood Lane and feel an immediate sense of space and calm. Sunlight pours through well-placed windows in the front living room, warming the rich hardwood floors that run through the main living areas. The home’s traditional brick exterior gives way to an interior that balances classic details with modern updates—think crown molding, a welcoming fireplace for cool evenings, and wide sightlines that connect living, dining, and kitchen areas in an effortless flow.
At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen showcases granite countertops and thoughtful workspace—an island or breakfast area can easily anchor weekend breakfasts and weekday homework. With appliances and surfaces refreshed, the kitchen is both functional and inviting, opening to a generous family room where gatherings feel easy and relaxed. Multiple living areas and four comfortable bedrooms give plenty of privacy for family life and visiting guests.
The property sits on a level half-acre with approximately 100 feet of frontage on Hazelwood Lane—room to garden, play, or create an outdoor entertaining terrace. A two-car attached garage plus an ample driveway provide parking for family and visitors. The interior’s central heating and air systems deliver year-round comfort; the roof is asphalt shingle and the home’s brick construction gives solid, low-maintenance curb appeal.
Location enhances everyday life here. Pierrefont Estates is a quiet, residential neighborhood a half-mile from the recreational draw of Wilson Lake and roughly five miles to Downtown Florence’s dining and cultural offerings. Highly regarded Brooks schools are nearby, making routine school runs straightforward. While the area is car-dependent (Walk Score estimated at 25), the short drives to lake access, green space, and downtown make weekend outings effortless.
Thoughtful updates reduce near-term maintenance needs, but because the home was built in 1995, buyers are encouraged to verify the condition and age of major systems and to schedule a septic inspection. With 3,200 square feet of thoughtfully arranged living space, this well-maintained home offers a comfortable, move-in-ready option for families who value space, strong local schools, and convenient access to outdoor life on Wilson Lake.

A factual market snapshot around 129 Hazelwood Lane.
Florence’s single-family market remains tilted toward sellers: inventory is low at approximately three months and homes typically move in about 45 days. Local market data shows one-year appreciation near 4.3% and five-year appreciation around 20%, driven by steady demand from families and professionals seeking good schools and proximity to recreational assets like Wilson Lake. Median sale price in the broader area is roughly $240,000, while comparable nearby sales within 0.5 miles suggest a valuation range for properties like this of $325,000–$375,000 (midpoint $350,000). For this property type—traditional single-family homes on private lots—competition is consistent, and properties with modernized kitchens, good lot sizes, and strong school access perform particularly well. With average days on market around 45 and limited active inventory, now is an opportune time for sellers; buyers who move quickly and are prepared with financing or inspections can capture properties offering both lifestyle value and long-term appreciation potential.
