1711 Providence Rd, Elizabeth City, NC 27909

Why this home stands out

The 1967 build gives this home solid bones and a floor plan that spreads across nearly 1,900 square feet. Four bedrooms and two and a half baths mean there is real room to spread out. The location is the other standout: a Food Lion, an Applebee's, and a Planet Fitness are all within a few minutes on foot. Not many addresses in Elizabeth City put that much within a quarter mile.
