About This Property

Situated on a spacious corner lot totaling 1.37 acres across two parcels, this all-brick 3 bedroom and 1 bathroom home offers character, thoughtful updates, and opportunity. Built in 1945, the property blends timeless charm with modern functionality while offering the perfect canvas to create the home you’ve been dreaming of. The upgraded kitchen features granite countertops, a large center island ideal for gathering with family and friends, stainless steel appliances (dishwasher 2026), and pull-out pantry shelving for added convenience. An open floor plan between the kitchen and living room creates an inviting space for both everyday living and entertaining. The updated bathroom includes classic subway tile and a walk-in shower. For buyers considering a remodel or renovation, the home does need some TLC but has been maintained over the years. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including HVAC (2025), ductwork (2017), roof (2021), encapsulated basement (2011), and well pump (2023). Whether you envision building new or completing a full renovation, this property presents a rare opportunity in the path of Locust’s continued growth. The outdoor space offers endless possibilities with an entertainment area, fire pit circle, and two storage sheds. Bedroom count is based on tax records, please note that second bedroom on the main level lacks a permanent closet.

About the Neighborhood

Homes for sale in 28097 offer buyers a genuine small-town Stanly County lifestyle in Locust, a growing community approximately 30 miles east of Charlotte via NC-24/27, defined by its tight-knit residential character and competitive price points relative to Mecklenburg and Cabarrus County alternatives. The residential landscape blends established mid-century ranch homes with a growing inventory of newer construction subdivisions responding to sustained buyer demand from Charlotte metro commuters discovering the value proposition of Stanly County's western edge. Morrow Mountain State Park — one of North Carolina's most celebrated outdoor destinations, featuring the ancient Uwharrie mountain range, Lake Tillery access, and extensive hiking trails — is within 20 minutes of Locust's residential streets. The evolving Downtown Locust corridor and the City of Locust's ongoing infrastructure investments reflect a community actively planning for thoughtful growth. Uptown Charlotte is approximately 35–40 minutes via NC-24/27 and US-601, and the 28097 real estate market consistently delivers new and established construction at price points that represent exceptional value within the broader Charlotte metropolitan area.
