1402 Darden St, High Point, NC 27262

A generous quarter-acre lot frames this updated single-story ranch at 1402 Darden Street, offering a rare combination of outdoor space and modern finishes within a compact, easy-to-maintain footprint. The 915-square-foot layout was refreshed with practical, contemporary choices: a newly renovated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, updated cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances; new flooring throughout; and a fully remodeled bathroom that elevates everyday comfort.

Inside, the plan prioritizes efficient living. Three bedrooms provide flexible options for a home office or guest room, while the living area opens directly to the kitchen for uncomplicated daily routines. Mechanical comforts include central air and forced-air gas heat, and the asphalt-shingle roof reflects standard, well-understood systems for a home of this vintage. Driveway parking accommodates two vehicles and the level lot leaves room for garden beds, a play area, or possible future expansion (verify with city zoning).

This property’s appeal extends beyond the house. Located in the Williams Ave neighborhood, the site sits roughly 1.2 miles from High Point University and within easy driving distance of High Point Regional Hospital, local shopping and Oak Hollow recreation areas. For buyers seeking turn-key value, recent renovations substantially reduce near-term maintenance needs and make the home move-in ready. Investors will note the neighborhood’s steady rental demand — estimated rent is about $1,200/month — and comparables in the area support a current market value near the listing price range.

Buyers should complete standard due diligence: confirm the scope and permits for renovations, and inspect major systems (roof, HVAC, plumbing) given the 1953 construction date. With a balanced local market and average days on market near 35, this updated ranch offers an accessible entry point into High Point with clear upside for homeowners and investors alike.

Williams Ave is a practical, well-established residential neighborhood with quick access to High Point University, healthcare services and local retail corridors. Residents appreciate roomy lots and a quieter street grid while still being a short drive from Oak Hollow recreational areas and shopping. The community attracts first-time buyers, downsizers and investors due to affordable prices and steady demand. Local schools are average-rated, and many families supplement with nearby private options. Everyday life here blends small-city convenience with enough green space for outdoor activity.
