317 Ridge Avenue

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.
