A Rare Find with Character, Charm & Privacy! This unique Dutch Colonial-style cottage offers a peaceful, private setting and the kind of character that is increasingly hard to find. Custom-built with thoughtful design and no wasted space, this charming 2-bedroom, 2-full-bath home is truly one-of-a-kind. Inside, the spacious cottage-style kitchen offers an abundance of cabinetry and counter space, while tray ceilings throughout the main level and two palladium windows add architectural interest and inviting character. Upstairs, both bedrooms and primary bathroom feature skylights, creating a connection to the outdoors and allowing natural light to fill the spaces. The primary bedroom is calm and spacious with beautiful French doors that lead to a private storybook balcony. Brazilian cherry engineered hardwood flooring throughout much of the upstairs beautifully complements the home’s distinctive and warm style. Step outside to the expansive covered patio and enjoy peaceful outdoor living surrounded by nature. It’s the perfect place to relax, entertain, or simply watch deer, birds, and other wildlife pass through the private setting. Two charming, heavy-duty outbuildings nearby provide plenty of additional storage or flexible space for hobbies, projects, gardening, or whatever your needs may be. One even includes its own potting shed for the gardening enthusiast. Tucked away in a serene wooded setting, this special cottage offers the privacy and tranquility of a retreat while remaining conveniently located to Gastonia, Clover, and Lake Wylie. Homes with this much character and individuality don’t come along often—come experience this one for yourself!

Southwest Gastonia, located between Franklin Boulevard and the South Fork Catawba River, is a residential and commercial Gastonia neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a river-and-greenway edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Franklin Blvd corridor near Cox Rd, where auto shops, local diners, and service storefronts set a practical, lived-in rhythm. Eastridge Mall serves as a long-running retail anchor, while Cavendish Brewing Company adds a small-batch, taproom counterpoint nearby. Housing trends toward brick one-stories and split-levels with deep lots, plus pockets of newer infill. Wilkinson Boulevard and I-85 shape the geography, keeping daily errands and regional drives straightforward. River-adjacent trails and ballfields add outdoor space without leaving the area.
