NO HOA – Peaceful Fixer Upper on Nearly an Acre in Vale, NC!
Tucked back off the road in the quiet countryside of Vale, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on just under an acre with no HOA and no close neighbors—offering the privacy and freedom you've been searching for.
The home needs work, no sugar-coating it—but with vinyl siding, a metal roof, and a charming outbuilding out back, the right updates could truly bring this property back to life. Whether you're an investor looking for your next project or a buyer with vision, there’s plenty of potential here.
Enjoy the best of peaceful, rural living while still being close to the charming town of Lincolnton and just a short drive to South Mountain State Park—a dream location for nature lovers, investors, or anyone ready to roll up their sleeves and bring this place back to life.
Sold as-is—a great opportunity to create something truly special.
