About the property

Front-Porch Charm with Main-Level Primary and Loft

You’ll notice the curb appeal before you step inside: an inviting front porch facing a tree-lined lane that frames long, colorful sunsets. This Brayden residence delivers modern, lived-in polish — freshly painted on the exterior and staged for immediate occupancy — with 2,400 square feet arranged for both daily routines and gatherings.

The heart of the home is an open-plan kitchen and living area designed around a generous center island and sleek countertops. The cook’s work area opens toward the dining and family zones so hosts stay engaged while meals are prepared. A dedicated main-level office sits apart from the entertaining spaces, offering a quiet, bright spot for remote work or a study. Also on the first floor: a large laundry room and a convenient half bath that support household logistics without crowding living space.

The primary suite on the main level is intentionally private — a full retreat that includes a spa-inspired bath with separate garden tub, glass-enclosed shower and a roomy walk-in closet. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a full bath, and a substantial loft provides flexible square footage for a media room, play area or hobby studio.

Step outside to a low-maintenance backyard: a paver patio anchored by a built-in fire pit creates a year-round gathering point for conversation and grilling. The property comes with a two-car garage and the community adds lifestyle perks — residents in Brayden enjoy a walkable layout with restaurants, shopping, entertainment and a community pool just steps away.

Thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready, this 2016-built home blends purposeful floor planning with neighborhood convenience. Whether you need a main-level primary, a dedicated workspace, or upstairs living areas for guests and family, 278 Helton Ln balances everyday practicality with outdoor spaces that extend your living area through every season.

Editorial market perspective

This listing is offered at $630,000, which aligns exactly with the valuation midpoint drawn from the Redfin data (midpoint $630,000, price/sf $262, confidence 0.65, posted 03/08/2026). Deep, local market metrics (days on market, current inventory, month-over-month median price change) were not included in the research packet, so buyers and agents should consult live MLS feeds for real-time indicators. That said, Fort Mill’s top-rated school district and amenity-rich master-planned neighborhoods like Brayden tend to keep steady buyer interest in the $500K–$800K segment. Single-family homes with a main-level primary suite and outdoor entertaining areas typically perform well here, often receiving competitive attention when priced accurately and presented move-in ready. For sellers, this alignment of list price to automated valuation suggests the home is competitively positioned; for buyers, it signals an opportunity to evaluate offers quickly against comparable active and recently closed homes. Working with a local agent to pull current days-on-market, pending ratio and absorption rates will clarify whether the immediate neighborhood is behaving as a buyer’s or seller’s market on the day of offer.
