About This Property
Spring is just around the corner, and this lovely home is ready for summer fun with its sparkling in-ground pool! Nestled at the back of a quiet, circular neighborhood with only one entrance, you'll enjoy the added peacefulness of minimal traffic. The backyard slopes toward a creek on the right and a neighbor’s large wooded tract beyond the fenced yard. (There is no flood plain per the GIS). Whether you’re relaxing on the deck, the patio below, or lounging poolside, you’ll appreciate the serene view. Inside, a welcoming foyer features hardwood floors flowing into the family room and dining area beyond. The cozy family room is anchored by a gas-log masonry fireplace (which can be converted back to wood-burning). The kitchen boasts a bright bay-window breakfast nook to sip coffee while enjoying the backyard view, and features a new range and dishwasher (2025); the microwave and refrigerator also remain. Upstairs, the primary suite offers laminate wood flooring and a private ensuite bath complete with a garden tub, separate shower, and walk-in closet. Also upstairs is a full hall bath, two additional carpeted bedrooms, and a spacious bonus room for work or play featuring hardwood floors and attic storage access. The front bedroom also has pulldown access to additional floored storage. Convenient to the bedrooms, the washer and gas dryer are in the upstairs hall closet and will remain. Other key upgrades and features: Architectural roof (2016) •Energy Efficiency: Tankless gas water heater and dual gas-pack HVAC units (one for each floor).• Exterior: Low maintenance brick and vinyl exterior with a fully fenced backyard. • Attached 2-car front-load garage with a double width concrete driveway with an extra pad to the left of the garage great for a camper, RV, trailer, or boat.• Connectivity: Fiber optics and wired internet available—perfect for remote work. Ring doorbell, front door entry keypad, automatic pool cleaner, and children's swing set also remain. Don't miss this opportunity ready for your quick closing. (More pictures coming 2/19/2026).
About the Neighborhood
Homes for sale in 28164 offer buyers a genuinely distinctive Lincoln County lifestyle in Stanley, a small community situated along the South Fork Catawba River approximately 25 miles west of Charlotte via NC-27, defined by its riverfront character, historic Craftsman and ranch home inventory, and the kind of established small-town authenticity increasingly rare within the broader metro commute range. The residential landscape features mid-century brick ranch homes, period Craftsman bungalows, and newer construction on generous lots reflecting the community's measured pace of growth along the South Fork corridor. The South Fork River Trails — a celebrated multi-use greenway system connecting communities along the Catawba watershed — provide kayaking, fishing, and trail access directly tied to Stanley's riverfront positioning. The growing Belmont and Mount Holly commercial corridors are within 15 minutes, delivering expanding dining and retail options, and major employers along the I-85 Gaston County industrial corridor are within easy reach. The 28164 real estate market delivers competitive Lincoln County price points with riverfront access and a manageable NC-27 commute placing Uptown Charlotte approximately 30–35 minutes away.
