Some homes you tour. This one you settle into. Tucked behind mature pines on a .36 acre corner lot, this stately brick Traditional gives you rare privacy without giving up an ounce of convenience. Twin dormers, black shutters and a classic brick facade give it the kind of curb appeal that never goes out of style.

A leaded glass door opens to herringbone hardwoods, crown molding and plantation shutters. The formal living and dining rooms are ready for holiday dinners, with a butler's pantry to keep them running. The kitchen flows into the breakfast area and a family room built around a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, the kind of room where weeknights slow down.

Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with a soaking tub and dual vanity. An office with an arched window and built in window seat makes working from home feel less like work. Three more bedrooms complete the second floor.

Then step outside. The timber frame porch, with its vaulted cedar ceiling and stone base, opens to a paver patio for firepit nights under the pines, all inside a fully fenced yard.

Life here comes easy. Tee times at Highland Creek Golf Club, morning walks on the Clarks Creek Greenway, weekends at Mallard Creek Park or the UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens. Concerts at Truliant Amphitheatre, race days at Charlotte Motor Speedway and Concord Mills are all minutes away.

Come see the porch at golden hour. You'll understand.
