About the property
1928 Character Home with Built-Ins and Fenced Yard
The living room at 316 E 28th St announces itself with a classic focal point: a wood-burning fireplace flanked by original built-in cabinets that capture the character of a 1928 home while offering practical storage and display. That sense of authenticity continues through generous room proportions — five bedrooms across roughly 2,068 square feet give this house flexibility for a growing family, frequent guests, or dedicated work-from-home spaces.
Practical updates sit quietly beneath the historic shell: the property is equipped with modern dual‑fuel heating and cooling systems and active air conditioning for year‑round comfort. Interior features highlighted by the seller include the preserved built-ins and fireplaces, while mechanical upgrades deliver efficiency and ease of ownership. A dedicated laundry hookup is available to simplify everyday living.
Outside, the house is sheathed in low‑maintenance vinyl siding and sits on a fully fenced lot — a secure, private yard for pets, play, and container gardening. The fenced yard pairs well with the home’s flexible interior, inviting both active outdoor time and low‑care weekends. The scale of the lot and yard supports typical in‑town uses without high maintenance demands.
Location is part of the appeal: this home offers proximity to downtown Winston‑Salem’s restaurants, shops, and cultural venues, putting city amenities within easy reach while keeping the feel of a residential street. For buyers seeking a mix of period details, meaningful square footage, and modern systems, this property represents a rare crossroads of space and character at a competitive price point. With its combination of preserved architectural details and essential updates, 316 E 28th St stands ready to welcome whoever values history, versatility, and an urban-adjacent lifestyle.
