About This Property

Whether envisioned as an equestrian estate, multigenerational retreat, sporting property or income-producing farm, this is the kind of place where generations can gather, spread out and make lasting memories. Hidden behind an automatic gate and tucked away on more than 63 private acres, this remarkable estate offers a rare combination of privacy, recreation, equestrian amenities and income-producing potential, conveniently located between Waxhaw, Monroe, Lancaster and Wesley Chapel. Long before reaching the home, the outside world begins to disappear. Trails wind through the woods, pastures stretch toward the horizon and a stocked pond provide the backdrop for a lifestyle that feels increasingly rare. Whether your passions include horses, fishing, hunting, riding ATVs or simply enjoying the outdoors, this property was designed to accommodate them all. The custom one-level residence offers nearly 3,300 square feet with a split-bedroom design and wheelchair accessibility. At the center of the home, the kitchen, dining area and great room flow together beneath vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings accented by exposed wood beams, skylights and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Granite countertops, custom cabinetry, Bosch appliances, gas range and an oversized island create spaces equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. Multiple glass doors connect the interior to covered patios, pergola and built-in gas grill overlooking the surrounding landscape. The primary suite features a custom closet completed in 2025, spacious bath with wheel-in shower and garden tub, while the guest suite includes a private bath and adjoining flex room ideal for an office or sitting room. Outdoor living is every bit as impressive as the interior. The gunite saltwater pool was resurfaced with PebbleTec in 2024 and is complemented by paver patios, outdoor shower and fire pit gathering area. The approximately 2.85-acre stocked pond offers bass, catfish, crappie and bream fishing, while trails throughout the acreage invite horseback riding, hiking and ATV adventures. The separate 1,000-square-foot pool and guest house includes a kitchen, recreation room, two flex rooms, full bath and covered porch, providing ideal accommodations for guests, extended stays or income-producing opportunities. An apartment above the barn offers additional flexibility. Equestrians will appreciate the exceptional facilities including an eight-stall barn with automatic waterers, wash stall, tack room, feed room and hay loft. A covered 100' x 200' arena, large turf Grand Prix field, board-fenced pastures, trailer parking and riding trails create a setting equally suited for pleasure riding, training or boarding. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant wildlife, wooded acreage and private shooting range. Hunting, ATV trails and excellent fishing create a year-round playground, while hay production and existing infrastructure provide additional income opportunities. Multiple support buildings include a workshop and four-bay steel building for tractors, trailers and recreational vehicles. Recent improvements include the automatic gate, pool resurfacing, HVAC systems, water filtration, well upgrades and a Generac generator installed in 2026. Properties combining this level of privacy, recreation and functionality are becoming increasingly difficult to find. More than simply a horse farm, this is the kind of place where holidays become traditions, memories are made and everyone eventually finds their way back home. Because some places are more than where you live. Septic system is an engineered drip system, available documentation shows system for 2 bedroom home and 2 bedroom guest house, yet the guest/flex rooms in the guest house do not have closets.
