New 2025 3-Bed Transitional Home — Wooded Deck & Community Pool
Step inside this Empire Communities new-construction Transitional home and you’ll find a floor plan designed around family living and low-maintenance finishes. The first floor opens to a flexible room with French doors — perfect for a home office or formal dining — and flows into an open kitchen and family area. The L-shaped kitchen is appointed with 42" white cabinets, quartz counters and matching backsplash, a tile backsplash, an island with double trash pullout, and GE Café stainless appliances anchored by a gas range. A large pantry sits adjacent to the kitchen for serious storage needs.
Functional touches are everywhere: a mudroom with drop zone and a generous storage closet off the garage keep daily clutter contained, while LVP on the main level, oak stair treads, and tile in wet areas create a durable, modern palette. Upstairs offers a bonus room for additional gathering space, two secondary bedrooms with walk-in closets, a well-designed shared guest bath, and a spacious Premier Suite with tray ceiling, large tiled shower with semi-frameless glass, quartz counters, and an ample walk-in closet.
Outside, enjoy a large composite deck that backs to a leafy, wooded view — a rare private backdrop for a subdivision lot. The .25-acre cul-de-sac parcel gives extra privacy and yard depth for play or patio expansion. Practical systems include a tankless hot water heater, radiant barrier sheathing, zoned central air, and natural gas heating — upgrades that help performance and long-term operating costs. The community adds everyday convenience with a pool and tot lot.
Located with quick access to I-85 and roughly a 30-minute drive to Uptown Charlotte, this home balances suburban tranquility with commute-friendly connectivity. Buyer incentives may be available — contact the listing agent for current offers and HOA details.

Location
2387 Trundle Dr Unit CWO0155, Gastonia, NC 28054
This property is in a newer subdivision developed by Empire Communities within Gastonia’s suburban growth corridor. The neighborhood features cul-de-sac streets, similar new homes, and community amenities such as a pool and tot lot. It's a commuter-friendly pocket with convenient access to major routes and local retail, while lots generally provide more privacy and yard depth than denser infill areas.
Good access to neighborhood green space, a community pool, and regional recreation within a short drive; suburban setting more car-dependent than walkable.
A factual market snapshot around 2387 Trundle Dr.
Gastonia sits inside the expanding Charlotte MSA where buyers continue to favor newer construction offering energy-efficient systems and open floor plans. Local median sale prices for Gaston County are below Charlotte proper — providing relative affordability while remaining commutable — and new homes with modern finishes typically command a premium of $15k–$40k over similar-sized older stock. Inventory in this sector is moderate; properly priced new listings with desirable features (deck/back-of-lot privacy, efficient HVAC, quality appliances) see strong buyer interest. Given the property's quality and location, pricing at $449,000 positions it competitively against other new builds in the area, but buyers should confirm HOA dues and recent closed comps to finalize valuation.
Likely single-family residential zoning consistent with new subdivision development; verify with City of Gastonia zoning maps.
