New 3-Bed, 2.5-Bath Townhome with Garage in Westfall
This Mattamy-built townhome on Selbourne Drive presents a fresh, low-maintenance option for buyers seeking modern finishes and immediate occupancy. At 1,768 square feet, the home opens to an airy main level defined by a purposeful open layout and a large kitchen island that anchors daily life. The kitchen offers ample prep space and a sightline to the living area—perfect for casual meals or hosting friends. A powder room and storage complete the main floor.
Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms and two full baths plus a laundry area. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath; two additional bedrooms are generous enough for office setups or growing households. Built-in storage and walk-in closets are practical touches throughout, and the electric heat pump and central AC deliver modern comfort. New construction means contemporary systems and little maintenance for years to come.
Outside, the property sits on a level 0.06-acre lot with a two-car attached garage accessed from a rear driveway—an efficient layout that maximizes curb appeal while keeping outdoor upkeep minimal. Westfall's community amenities amplify the lifestyle: a cabana and outdoor pool, playground, picnic areas, pond, sidewalks, streetlights and neighborhood walking trails add daily convenience and weekend options without a long drive.
Location is a standout: Linwood Springs Park is approximately one block away (0.2 miles) for easy access to green space, and Crowders Mountain State Park sits within a short drive for more ambitious outdoor pursuits. Downtown Gastonia's shops and restaurants are about 3 miles away. Priced at $299,990 (about $170/sqft) and vacant for immediate move-in, this townhome is positioned for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors targeting new-construction rentals in a stable local market.
Note: local school ratings in the area are below regional averages, so buyers with school considerations may explore alternative options. With comparable recent sales in the Westfall community and a short average market time for similar units, this home is a practical, modern entry into Gastonia ownership or a turnkey rental opportunity.

A factual market snapshot around 2580 Selbourne Dr.
Gastonia's 28052 market is currently balanced—neither strongly favoring buyers nor sellers—which creates a predictable environment for purchase decisions. Recent market metrics show roughly three months of inventory and an average days-on-market near 45 days, with the local median sale price around $253,250 and annual appreciation near 5%. For new-construction townhomes like 2580 Selbourne Dr, demand has been steady: three very recent Westfall sales closed between $279,990 and $299,990, producing a neighborhood price-per-square-foot near $157–$170. That range informs the listing price of $299,990 (about $170/sqft) and suggests fair market alignment.
Townhomes in this corridor perform well because new product is meeting consistent local demand from first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors seeking rental units. Inventory for new units remains limited, and lease comparables indicate rents near $1,750–$1,850/month, supporting rental yield potential. Given average market velocity and stable appreciation, now is a reasonable time to consider this property if you value immediate occupancy, modern systems, and community amenities. Buyers should verify HOA terms and compare recent comps for final pricing strategy; sellers benefit from the balanced market but should price competitively on move-in-ready units.
