Looking for a brick home on country acreage? Here it is! Situated just south of the Lincoln County line, this classic brick ranch, built and owned by one family in 1953, offers timeless mid-century character and peaceful country living nestled on 3.3 acres with 427 feet of road frontage. Original craftsmanship shines throughout with genuine hardwood floors in the hallway, living room, and all 3 bedrooms. The main living space features warm original pine paneling, French doors, and a cozy masonry fireplace with propane gas logs. Additional flex space includes a large, unheated recreation room (converted garage bay) leading out to the backyard, an attached 1-car garage, and interior access to a partial walk-out basement—perfect for extra storage or a dedicated workshop. The home is equipped with heat pump central heat/air. After the passing of the matriarch of the family, the adult children offered the house as a professionally managed rental. Vacated recently by the tenant, it is now vacant, sold “as-is, ” and ready for your custom cosmetic touches. Looking for more land? A new survey provides a 20’ ROW access beside the neighbor’s driveway to the right of the house and extending along the right border back to the adjoining rear parcel (10.712 wooded acres partially bordered by a creek; available separately at MLS 4417189 or combined with this house listing at MLS 4382850 for a total of 14 acres). Per GIS, there are no flood zones or utility easements on either parcel. Enjoy peaceful country living while maintaining commuting convenience: only about 1/2 mile to Hwy 27; approx. 4 miles to Stanley dining and shops, about 10 miles to Lincolnton (shopping, dining, Atrium Hospital), or, for airline travel, it’s just a 19-mile drive to Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
