408 W 20th St, Lumberton, NC 28358

A solid, mid-century brick veneer home stands with presence on W 20th Street — 408 W 20th St delivers generous interior space and a deep, level lot in Lumberton’s long-established Tanglewood neighborhood. With roughly 2,000 square feet across one-and-a-half stories, this 1946-built residence balances durable construction and practical livability: brick exterior, shingle roof, crawlspace foundation, and a concrete driveway that fits two vehicles.

You’ll find large, well-proportioned rooms throughout. The floorplan emphasizes comfortable living areas, three bedrooms and two full baths, and systems that support everyday convenience: central air conditioning, an electric heat pump, and a natural gas water heater. The home’s condition is listed as good, and the concrete driveway plus level yard create straightforward outdoor maintenance and room for landscaping, gardening, or an outdoor seating area.

What sets this property apart is location and scale. The 0.27-acre parcel provides private outdoor breathing room uncommon on many infill lots; Tanglewood Elementary sits about three blocks away and UNC Health Southeastern is roughly a half-mile — making commutes to medical, school, and community services quick and simple. The neighborhood’s mature streets and proximity to local anchors mean essentials are nearby without sacrificing a residential feel.

From an investment perspective, recent in-neighborhood sales and a professional valuation place fair market value in the $169,000–$207,000 range, with an estimated midpoint around $188,000. The current assessed value of $129,300 suggests opportunity for buyers attentive to condition and systems; key due diligence items include verifying the age and function of major mechanical systems, confirming lot boundaries, and reviewing zoning and school assignments. With thoughtful updates this home can reward both owner-occupants and investors looking for a well-built, centrally located single-family offering in Lumberton.

Tanglewood is a mature, residential neighborhood in central Lumberton characterized by tree-lined streets, single-family homes, and convenient proximity to essential services.
