I have lived in Smithfield for most of my life and raised my family here. I know the community because I have been active in civic affairs for a long time. I am a past president of the Greater Smithfield-Selma Area Chamber of Commerce, a former chairman of the Downtown Smithfield Development Corporation, past president of Habitat for Humanity of Johnston County, a founder of the Johnston County YMCA, and presently a member of the Board of Trustees of Centenary United Methodist Church and president of the Johnston County Arts Council. I served for eight years on the Smithfield Town Council.
I am a REALTOR® and broker affiliated with the The Kelly Cobb Home Team of Fonville Morisey Realty, a Long & Foster Company. I have memberships in the Johnston County Association of Realtors, the Triangle Multiple Listing Service, and the Raleigh Regional Association of Realtors.
In representing buyers, I can show you properties listed in the Triangle Multiple Listing Service. This is a large database service for REALTORS® who are located in over 16 counties throughout the Greater Triangle Region of North Carolina. In representing sellers, I can do a market analysis, list properties for sale, and professionally market them through printed advertisements, the Triangle Multiple Listing Service, and the Internet.

A few words about Smithfield . . .
Smithfield is the county seat of Johnston County, and one of the oldest towns in North Carolina. Founded in 1777, Smithfield has an interesting history that still is reflected in some of our lovely older neighborhoods, our revitalized downtown business district, our Town Commons along the Neuse River, and in our renowned Johnston County Heritage Center.
Our community has grown to more than 12,000 residents and is located in the center of Johnston County – a county with a population approaching 150,000. Smithfield is well-located with convenient access via major highways, railroads, and airports. Raleigh, our dymanic state capital, is only 28 miles away, and we're just two hours from North Carolina’s beaches and four hours from the mountains.
The Smithfield area offers a number of available homes in a variety of styles, prices, and locations. Locations range from historic neighborhoods with elegant older homes to several new and inviting subdivisions. If you are interested in new construction, single-family homes and town houses are being built in established neighborhoods and also near our golf courses, including lakeside vistas. Building sites are also available for custom-built homes. Housing choices are wide open for preferences and tastes.

This adorable lakefront property overlooks Holt Lake and provides a relaxing retreat for folks who enjoy living near water. The two-story cottage has three bedrooms and two baths. Part of the home is one-story and this is where the large family room is located. The home has central heating and air. It was built around 1955 and the exterior face brick was added after 1960. The back of the home is painted Masonite. The roof is built-up and flat. Flooring in the home is wood, vinyl, carpet, and ceramic. The kitchen has good storage, an electric stove, a double sink, refrigerator, washer, and dryer. There are gas logs in the family room. The raised back patio is large (12x34) and faces Holt Lake. When the house was built, it was designed to face the lake, therefore, the view from the road is of the back of the home and pictured above. The property is located across the lake from the Country Club of Johnston County, which features an 18-hole golf course that's now open to the public: $193,500. MLS#1662282
