296 Culloden Road, Iron Station, NC

The architectural diversity of Maple Grove distinguishes it from the homogenized developments often found in the greater Charlotte periphery, offering a collection of custom estates where no two footprints are identical. This 2001 residence occupies six and a half acres in Iron Station, providing a buffered retreat that terminates at a private creek. Spanning 4,445 square feet, the three-bedroom, four-bathroom interior is defined by a verticality rarely seen in contemporary builds, featuring a great room with vaulted ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The layout emphasizes natural light through expansive glazing, particularly in the kitchen which was updated in 2024. For the discerning collector of land, this submarket remains one of the few areas within reach of the city where multi-acre parcels are secured within a gated, deed-restricted environment, ensuring long-term privacy and value stability. The acreage and mature canopy provide a level of seclusion that is increasingly difficult to procure. Private viewings are available by appointment through Peters & Associates.
