The circa 1938 Luther Cabin is SOLD! With Salisbury Real Estate LLC & Preservation North Carolina

A property like the Luther Cabin does not come along every day!  Known as 'Sleepy Hollow' ~ an ultra-rustic, 1930s 2-story cabin nestled into 25 wooded acres, with a pre-Civil War log barn . . . and protective covenants and restrictions preserving the integrity of the property!  READ the full story HERE.

This step-back-in-time was donated to Preservation North Carolina, which contracted with Salisbury Real Estate LLC to sell this untouched, fully furnished historic cabin and over 25 acres of land.


What does this mean?  It means developers were jumping on the chance to scoop up this property, clear it, and build multi-unit housing.  Whelp . . . they just could NOT.  

The right buyer always comes around...and we closed on this property on April 1st. The buyer will continue to preserve this special cabin and historic site.

I love representing properties like this, knowing they will be preserved in perpetuity. I love the uniqueness of the historic properties and the stories they tell.

While the nature of this type of transaction can be challenging (and sometimes difficult), it is most gratifying to know that these properties are saved through deed restrictions for generations to come!


Kudos to Preservation North Carolina for the work they do.  This is my second transaction with Preservation NC, and have sold a large number of properties for the Historic Salisbury Foundation, both as the original sale where covenants and restrictions were placed on the properties and in re-sales. I enjoy building these relationships with our preservation-minded organizations.



When it is time to sell your piece of history, with all its stories, let Salisbury Real Estate LLC help you find that right buyer: 704.213.6846.
