About the property

Turnkey 4-Bed Ranch with Large Addition, Pool & RV Pad

This thoughtfully transformed ranch blends practical updates with a flexible floorplan ideal for families and downsizers alike. The single-level layout totals 2,102 SF and includes a substantial 2009 addition (approx. 764 SF) that delivers a generous family room and a second primary-suite style bedroom and bath configuration — giving you main-floor comfort and separation where families appreciate it most.

Recent capital work gives you confidence: the kitchen was rebuilt from the joists up in 2021 and both the roof and dual HVAC systems were replaced the same year. The main living spaces flow openly from the living room (anchored by a wood-burning fireplace) into the kitchen/dining zone and the expanded family room. The current owner relocated the laundry to the garage for space efficiency; interior hookups remain behind a closet so you can easily move laundry back inside if you prefer.

Outdoor living is ready for summer entertaining: a back deck overlooks an above-ground pool with a new liner (2024), plus a backyard storage building and a partially floored attic for seasonal storage. Park comfortably — the home features a double-width concrete driveway plus a gravel pad sized for an RV, boat, or trailer. The enclosed garage was converted from a carport and includes a dedicated 7'x7' workshop area at the rear.

Practical details buyers will appreciate: enclosed crawlspace with an app-monitored dehumidifier, insulated windows, ceiling fans, wired internet/fiber availability, and included major appliances (refrigerator, washer, dryer). Located in established Stanley, this home sits within easy walking distance to a small neighborhood lake/park and offers quick drive access to regional retail and commuter routes into the greater Charlotte area.

Editorial market perspective

Stanley sits inside the Charlotte MSA but offers lower price points than Mecklenburg County. In early 2026 the suburban markets in Gaston County are balanced to slightly seller-favoring for well-maintained, updated single-family homes; inventory remains relatively tight for move-in-ready product. Median single-family prices in the immediate Gaston County corridor are below Charlotte proper, creating consistent buyer demand from price-conscious commuters and families. Given the home's recent systems work, sizable addition and outdoor amenities, it sits competitively in the $400k–$460k range for buyers seeking turnkey single-story living with room for guests, hobbies, and toys (RV/boat).
