$2,096Welcome to this stunning farmhouse-style retreat nestled on just under an acre of nature lover's paradise — complete with a wooded backyard, babbling creek, and the kind of privacy that's nearly impossible to find. From the moment you arrive, the charcoal board-and-batten exterior, covered front porch, and landscape lighting set the tone for what awaits inside. Step through the foyer, and you're immediately greeted by a thoughtfully designed first floor featuring laminate wood flooring throughout. A private office off the foyer with double French doors is tucked away from the main living areas, making it ideal for remote work or a quiet retreat. The open-concept great room impresses with soaring natural wood ceiling beams, an electric fireplace framed in shiplap, recessed lighting, and a wall of windows overlooking the lush wooded backyard — all flowing seamlessly into the kitchen. The kitchen is an absolute showstopper and the heart of this home. White shaker cabinets with glass-front uppers are paired with a dramatic artisan tile backsplash, quartz countertops, and a large custom island with seating. A ceramic farmhouse sink is centered under a window with backyard views, and the stainless steel appliance package includes double wall ovens, an electric cooktop, a dishwasher, and a microwave. Pendant and recessed lighting, black hardware, and an oversized pantry with a built-in butler's pantry — perfectly styled as a coffee bar — complete this chef's dream space. The informal dining area features a built-in table with a quartz countertop connected to the island, plus French doors that open to the impressive 20x20 deck with cable railing, overlooking a stunning canopy of mature trees and the creek below. Whether you're sipping morning coffee or entertaining at sunset, this outdoor space is pure magic. Also on the main level is a stylish powder room with a quartz vanity and black fixtures. The finished attached two-car garage features epoxy flooring, a MyQ smart opener, recessed lighting, and extra storage. Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to four well-sized bedrooms, all with laminate wood flooring and ceiling fans. The primary suite offers a large walk-in custom closet and a spa-quality ensuite with a double quartz vanity, black fixtures, and an oversized walk-in tile shower with wave-texture wall tile, dual niches, mosaic floor tile, and a window that brings the outdoors in. Three additional bedrooms are generously sized — each with laminate wood flooring and ceiling fans — with one bedroom offering peaceful wooded views through dual windows. All three are served by a well-appointed hall bath with quartz vanity, black fixtures, and a tub/shower combo. A laundry room that redefines the standard — white cabinetry, quartz countertop, artisan tile backsplash, floating wood shelf, and a window. Exterior extras include black gutters, landscape lighting, an extra parking pad, and a creek-side backyard that truly cannot be replicated. And the location? Better than you'd expect. Less than 10 miles to Lake Tillery, under 4 miles to Uwharrie Vineyards, ~3 miles to Downtown Albemarle — Goody Shop Cafe, Connie's Coffee and Cafe, Five Points Public House, Albemarle Sweet Shop & more. Catch summer baseball with the local Wampus Cats at Don Montgomery Park, and within about an hour of Uptown Charlotte. This one is special — and homes like this don't come around often in this area.

Huntersville NC Real Estate Guide
Local Tips & Strategies for the 28078 Market
1. Commute Tips: If you’re interested in Huntersville homes for sale, drive I-77 at 0730. Managing the Express Lane access points from Birkdale or Macaulay is the difference between an easy commute and total gridlock nightmare.
2. Valuation Tips: Sellers in communities like Skybrook or Northstone shouldn’t ever anchor prices to Lake Norman waterfront data or properties. Value is driven by the Huntersville school district, lifestyle amenities and location, location, location.
3. Local Boating Tips: Beat the boat ramp crowds at Blythe Landing by launching early in the morning, before 0800. On the way home, hit Rise Cafe in Birkdale Crossings or head by Birkdale Village for dinner. (See some of our favorite restaurants in Birkdale Village)
Huntersville NC Real Estate FAQ
Is Huntersville NC walkable?
Birkdale Village is the premier walkable hub, offering a mix of luxury retail, dining, and single-family residential homes.. There are also townhomes and plenty of places to eat. As a resident, I walk to Birkdale daily for exercise or to eat. There’s always something going on there.
How are the schools in Huntersville?
Top schools include Lake Norman Charter and Grand Oak Elementary, which are major drivers for local property values. Beware of Charlotte Mecklenburg School systems as they constantly change the school map around Huntersville. If you need more information, go directly to the school system to be sure.
Are property taxes lower than Charlotte?
Yes. You get Mecklenburg County services without the added Charlotte city tax—a major win for relocations. Local tip to consider is that taxes in Mecklenburg County are higher than nearby counties.
Where is the best outdoor recreation?
Latta Nature Preserve is the crown jewel, offering miles of waterfront hiking and kayak launches on Mountain Island Lake. Jetton Park in Cornelius is on of my favorites and only a five minute drive from Birkdale Village.
What are the top golf neighborhoods?
Northstone Country Club and Skybrook Golf Club are the premier destinations for luxury golf-course living. Nearby in other towns you’ll also find additional choices to drive balls or play 18 holes.
