Own a piece of NC Mountain History. The main structure on this property was built in 1910 and was built as the FIRST Library in Spruce Pine. Spruce Pine, incorporated as a town in 1907, it quickly developed civic institutions to support its growing population. By 1910, the community had secured its first dedicated public library, reflecting the state’s push for a rural library service and the town’s desire for a cultural and educational center. This early library was modest in size and resources but served a significant in role — it provided books, educational materials, and programs to residents, and it helped bridge the gap between the town’s mining and railroad economy and opportunities for lifelong learning. This stone structure has survived the test of time and was eventually turned in a beautiful living space. It still has most of the original architecture in place including most of the wood floors to the 1910 floor to ceiling stone fireplace. Downstairs hosts a large family area (living room), an eat-in kitchen, full bathroom and laundry area. The upstairs has two bedrooms, another full bath and a den/sitting balcony area overlooking the massive living room. Some of the pictures from the original library are included. Also on the property sits a 900 sq ft guest house with large living/kitchen combination, one bedroom and a full bath with laundry area. A 16×45, 720 sq ft attached drive through garage (with garage doors on either end).
