If you’ve been looking for space, privacy, and a property that actually feels different from everything else on the market, this is one worth seeing. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom brick home sits on 3 private acres and offers a layout that lives bigger than expected.
Inside, the home has a bright, open-concept feel with beautiful hardwood floors and a natural flow between living spaces. The sunroom is a standout and adds a great additional area to relax or entertain. The layout is simple, functional, and comfortable without feeling confined.
The property itself is what truly sets it apart. A long driveway creates a strong sense of arrival and sets the home back from the road, while the land offers usable space and flexibility that’s getting harder to find. A well-built chicken coop adds to the overall usability and lifestyle appeal.
The full walkout basement includes multiple partially finished rooms, offering real usable space and flexibility beyond the main level, without being included in the heated square footage.
Located just off Hwy 16 with easy access to Newton, Conover, and Hickory, all areas seeing strong growth, while still maintaining a quiet, tucked-away feel. Easy access to Charlotte makes it a strong option for those needing to stay connected to the city while enjoying more space and lower taxes.
