7 Stowe St, Lowell, NC 28098

You’ll notice the lot before the porch — a level, well-proportioned .34‑acre parcel with 75 feet of frontage on quiet Stowe Street, rare for ranches in town. This solid brick home, built in 1957, sits low and comfortable on its grounds, framed by mature plantings and a long driveway that leads to a two‑car detached garage with workshop potential.

Inside, clean hardwood runs through the primary living areas and underscores the home’s straightforward mid‑century plan. The living room centers on a brick fireplace and flows to an updated kitchen that blends classic lines with practical modern updates — durable counters, refreshed cabinetry, and room for an eat‑in table. Two main‑level bedrooms and a 1.5 bath keep daily life simple; a partial unfinished basement provides storage and future expansion possibilities.

Recent, owner‑completed investments remove immediate maintenance concerns: a new shingle roof installed in 2023 and central air for comfortable summers. Natural gas heating, municipal utilities, and solid brick construction contribute to a low‑upkeep ownership profile. The detached garage and ample yard make this property flexible — a gardener’s plot, a backyard hangout, or room for a playset and pets.

Location is quietly convenient. Downtown Lowell is about half a mile away for errands and local dining, I‑85 is roughly a mile for easy commuting, and Rankin Lake Park and the Gaston County YMCA are an easy short drive. With a compact footprint, updated systems, and a rare oversized lot in this neighborhood, 7 Stowe St is attractive to first‑time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a stable, well‑maintained rental option.

Lowell offers a small‑town feel with fast access to regional highways and larger employment centers in the Charlotte‑Concord‑Gastonia MSA.

Outdoor options include local parks and Rankin Lake nearby; community amenities like the Gaston County YMCA are just minutes away.
