About the host
Hosted by Susan Hoar
After living in Thailand for 16 years and traveling to many other countries, we returned to the US in 2019 and bought a little 4 acre place where we spend lots of time remodeling, raising bees, dogs and chickens, enjoying our dogs and porch sitting. We love spending time with friends and family and I (Susan) dabble in creating things and I usually have some new project in the works. We love the beauty of nature and lately you can find us at a local rodeo too. After traveling so much and staying in so many types of places, we finally had the chance to fulfill our dream of hosting. We hope we have created a space that you can call home for awhile without worrying about anything.
Why they chose this property
We have always loved history and historical building and were drawn to the Cannon Mill Town area. We love the old time charm of the porches, high ceilings and big backyards. The neighbors are so friendly and the convenience of being right next to downtown Kannapolis makes this the perfect spot for hosting. You can walk to the park for a summer concert or Christmas village yet still savor the quiet of a quaint neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
As you walk in you are greeted by 11 foot ceilings with original molding, hardwood floors, and large windows. We love that the rooms flow nicely into each other but retain their own individual space and charm, each adorned with an unique chandelier. The backyard is big enough to spread out, enjoy some firefly watching in the summer or roast marshmallows in the colder months. The front porch is a delightful place to savor your favorite coffee, enjoy a glass of wine or read a book. Come and spend your time away in a true home.
