What stands out at 808 Long St Lot 2 is the practical, modern layout: a newly built, two-story home that places a primary bedroom on the main level while delivering 1,431 square feet of smartly arranged living space. Constructed in 2026 by Stanly Construction Services, the house combines everyday convenience with low-maintenance exterior materials—vinyl siding and an architectural shingle roof—so you can spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying the neighborhood.
Step inside to an open living and dining area designed for easy furniture placement and everyday life. The main-level primary suite keeps morning and evening routines compact and comfortable, and the home is served by an efficient heat pump for both heating and cooling. With two bathrooms, three bedrooms and thoughtful new-construction finishes throughout, this home is practical for first-time buyers, downsizers, or small families who value a modern baseline that’s ready for personalization.
Outside, the lot is level and roughly 0.18 acres—large enough for yard activities and a future garden or patio. Driveway parking accommodates approximately two vehicles; there is no attached garage. Utilities include municipal water and sewer and electric service from Duke Energy. The property is being sold by the builder and is currently vacant, making it straightforward to schedule a viewing once construction is completed and inspections are finalized.
Location is a key advantage: Central Elementary sits about a mile away and Albemarle High School about 1.3 miles, while downtown Albemarle’s shops, restaurants and services are roughly 1.5 miles from the front door. That short commute to downtown amenities and schools pairs well with the Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia MSA’s regional access and Stanly County’s steady growth. Listed at $244,900 (about $171 per square foot), this new-construction home aligns with recent area sales and presents a competitively priced option in a balanced local market.
Buyers should note pending items: final completion date and assessment of improvements remain to be verified. Given recent comparable sales and current rental demand estimates (roughly $1,500/month), this property also merits consideration as a rental or starter-home investment in a market with modest appreciation over time.
This home sits in a residential section of Albemarle with quick access to downtown’s small-business shopping and dining scene. Families will appreciate proximity to Central Elementary and Albemarle High School, both just a short drive away, while commuters benefit from the property’s location inside the Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia MSA. The neighborhood is seeing new construction activity and steady municipal investment, creating a practical suburban atmosphere with short trips to parks, municipal services, and community events. It’s a community that favors practicality and access over long commutes.
Albemarle’s market sits in a balanced-to-slightly-seller-lean configuration right now. Inventory is about three months—below a neutral six months but not at constrained levels—while average days on market hover near 60 days. Median sale prices for the area are approximately $245,000, and recent new-construction comparables in the neighborhood have closed in the $241,500–$251,500 range, yielding a price-per-square-foot band that closely matches this listing’s $171/SF. Year-over-year appreciation in the immediate area is modest (around +5% over the past 12 months) with a longer-term five-year uptick of about 15%, indicating steady, not speculative, growth.
For single-family homes like this 3BR/2BA new build, demand is solid—especially from first-time buyers and investors seeking turnkey rental inventory. The property’s estimated rent of roughly $1,500/month produces a gross yield near 7.3%, which looks attractive relative to local rental comps. Given the current market signals—short inventory, moderate DOM, and pricing aligned to comps—qualified sellers can expect reasonable interest, and buyers who move decisively will find competitive options without the extreme bidding seen in hotter metros. Verify final inspections and assessed value changes at completion, as those will affect timing and ongoing tax obligations.
