Welcome to 317 S Ridge Avenue-a thoughtfully renovated home in the heart of downtown Kannapolis, where timeless character meets modern comfort. Enjoy convenient access to downtown shopping, dining, entertainment, community events, and Atrium Health Ballpark-home of the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers!
This comprehensive, permitted renovation was completed by licensed contractors and extends far beyond cosmetic updates. Major improvements include a new architectural roof, gutters, siding, fascia, soffits, vinyl windows, insulation, HVAC system and ductwork, water heater, plumbing, electrical service, panels, and full-home rewiring with the original knob-and-tube wiring removed. Foundation elements were restored, while the basement and crawlspace were encapsulated, insulated, sealed, and dehumidified.
Inside, the redesigned open-concept kitchen and dining area features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a GE appliance package, and a large center island perfect for gathering. Both bathrooms have been beautifully updated, including an expanded primary bath with modern tile and a glass enclosure. Restored hardwood floors add warmth and character, while the flexible layout provides space for up to four bedrooms, a home office, or guest accommodations.
Outdoor improvements include a new concrete driveway, renovated front porch, approximately 15-by-15-foot rear deck, fenced backyard, updated landscaping, and a tire swing. The property also features a two-car shed and a renovated, detached one-car garage with an approximately 190-square-foot finished room upstairs-ideal for an office, studio, or hobby space. Electrical power is installed; the upstairs room is not heated or cooled.
With its prime downtown Kannapolis location, extensive system replacements, inviting living spaces, two-car shed, detached garage with a finished upstairs room, and move-in-ready interior, this home offers lasting value, modern functionality, and added peace of mind.
