Situated at the nexus of Mint Hill and Union County, this 1983 log residence offers a rare degree of seclusion within the Charlotte metropolitan area. Positioned nearly a thousand feet from the road at the terminus of a private drive, the home anchors a substantial 8.84-acre assemblage composed of four recorded parcels. The architecture is defined by a two-story great room with vaulted, beam-exposed ceilings and a full-length covered porch that overlooks a landscape of cleared pasture and mature hardwoods. Across 1,589 square feet of living space, the interior features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by a loft and a dining area that opens through French doors to a stone-faced deck. For those focused on the submarket’s equestrian potential, the property is already equipped with a stable, barn, and fully fenced enclosures. While acreage of this scale is increasingly difficult to secure near the I-485 corridor, this estate provides immediate utility for land banking or agricultural pursuits. Private viewings are available through Peters & Associates.
