About this home
Timeless Colonial charm meets thoughtful modern updates in this beautifully maintained home nestled in the highly desirable Farmwood community, just minutes from downtown Mint Hill and Pine Lake Country Club! Pride of ownership is evident throughout, with significant recent investments including a BRAND-NEW roof and gutters with gutter guards, new insulated garage doors with updated tracks and openers, and beautifully renovated bathrooms (October 2026). Additional improvements, including vinyl replacement windows and a whole-home Generac generator, offer added comfort and peace of mind for years to come. Inside, gorgeous hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, where a welcoming family room with gas-log fireplace, formal living room, and spacious dining room create the perfect setting for everything from quiet evenings at home to hosting a house full of family and friends. The beautifully updated kitchen features quartz countertops, a custom tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, while the adjoining breakfast area is surrounded by stunning floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the private, tree-lined backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a beautifully renovated ensuite with designer finishes, a spacious walk-in tile shower, separate soaking tub, and generous walk-in closet. Spacious secondary bedrooms and an equally impressive updated full bathroom offer comfort and functionality for the entire household. Need room to spread out? The expansive bonus room offers incredible flexibility as a media room, playroom, home office, or potential fifth bedroom, while the massive walk-up attic with permanent staircase provides exceptional storage and future possibilities. Outside, an expansive deck invites you to enjoy peaceful mornings and evenings surrounded by mature trees, while the oversized garage, convenient drop zone, storage shed, and extended driveway with additional parking make everyday living that much easier. Beautifully updated, meticulously cared for, and completely move-in ready, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy an established Mint Hill community with the space, character, and improvements today's buyers are searching for!

About
Farmwood
Farmwood, located between Matthews–Mint Hill Road and Lawyers Road, is a residential and suburban Mint Hill neighborhood with mature tree cover and winding cul-de-sacs. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Matthews–Mint Hill Rd/Lawyers Rd crossroads, where local storefronts and everyday errands cluster in a low-key, car-friendly strip. Nearby anchors like Carolina Creamery, Mint Hill Arts, and the Mint Hill Historical Society help set a small-town cultural rhythm. Homes lean toward classic ranches and traditional two-stories on generous lots. Side streets stay quiet, while main roads connect to parks and community events. Green space and neighborhood-scale streetscapes shape an outdoors-forward routine.
