About this home
Welcome to your private retreat nestled on 5.63 acres of picturesque land! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch home offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. This property is ideal for anyone looking for peace, comfort, and room to spread out—all while staying close to everything you need. Step inside to discover a traditional ranch-style layout designed for comfort and functionality. The heart of the home is the spacious living room, featuring vaulted ceilings that create an open, airy feel and a wood-burning stove that serves as a cozy focal point and a practical secondary heat source during colder months. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the living and breakfast nook, creating the perfect backdrop for both everyday living and entertaining. With ample cabinetry and counter space, meal preparation is easy and enjoyable. The home’s three bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility. The primary suite features its own private bathroom, while the additional bedrooms are well-sized for guests or a home office. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines! The full-width front porch is perfect for morning coffee or lazy afternoons spent rocking as you enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Off to the side, a screened-in porch with a charming swing invites you to relax, unwind, and take in the fresh country air without the bother of insects. The property’s 5.63 acres are thoughtfully designed to maximize usability and privacy. The front acreage is cleared and ready for animals—perfect for horses, goats, or chickens—while the wooded back portion provides a natural buffer and plenty of seclusion. A detached one-car garage outbuilding offers additional storage or workshop space, giving you plenty of options for hobbies, projects, and equipment. Despite its peaceful, tucked-away feel, this home offers incredible convenience. Located just 1 mile from Porter Ridge High School and only ½ mile to Lawyers Road, you’ll enjoy easy access to everyday essentials. The I-485 interchange is just 10 minutes away, making commutes to Charlotte or nearby towns simple and stress-free. Whether you’re looking for a place to put down roots, start a hobby farm, or simply escape the hustle and bustle, this property offers the best of both worlds—a private, rural setting with unbeatable access to modern conveniences.
