About This Property
Enjoy the perks of Locust just minutes from the Locust Town Center, multiple restaurants and shopping. This all brick home is perfect for low-maintenance living at only two years old. The rocking chair front porch is the perfect place to greet the day and the 18' x 15' patio with gazebo is great for gatherings. Inside, the kitchen, dining and living rooms are open with a generously-sized island, soft-close cabinetry, and luxury vinyl plank throughout the living areas and in the primary bedroom. Cozy up for a toasty evening at home with gas log fireplace while dreaming of all your holiday plans. If storage is a challenge, your search is over. This home has a HUGE attic space (960 sq ft) perfect for all the extras and the biggest plus of all is that you can access it by stairs. (Future expansion of a bonus room could also be considered for this area.) The primary suite features a spacious walk-in closet, step-in shower, dual-sink vanity with a drawer stack for extra storage. There is carpeting in the secondary bedrooms. The washer, dryer and refrigerator are all included to make move-in a breeze. With no HOA, city water and sewer, and a quarter acre, your time can be spent doing what you love rather than mowing a huge yard and keeping up a house! This nearly new property makes it possible.

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.
