About this home

BEAUTIFUL 20+ ACRE EQUESTRIAN & BUILD-READY PROPERTY | WAXHAW, NC NOW OFFERING FLEXIBLE ACREAGE OPTIONS — PURCHASE ALL 20+ ACRES OR EXPLORE AN 8- OR 12-ACRE TRACT! Take a look at this gorgeous 20+ acre unrestricted property on Potter Road in the heart of Union County! Currently consisting of two parcels being offered together, this exceptional property offers a unique opportunity for buyers looking for acreage, privacy, and the freedom to create their dream country lifestyle. Don't need all 20+ acres? We are open to selling approximately 8 or 12 acres separately! We understand that not everyone needs 20 acres, and we're willing to work with interested buyers to explore potential property divisions. Our preference is to create an 8- or 12-acre tract while preserving the larger remaining parcel's eligibility for the agricultural-use tax program. Interested in a smaller tract? Reach out! We're happy to discuss potential lot lines, surveys, and options that could work for everyone. Final acreage and boundaries would be subject to an agreed-upon survey and applicable approvals. BUILD YOUR DREAM HOME — WITHOUT STARTING FROM SCRATCH! This property is truly build-ready, featuring an approved 4-bedroom homesite with a paid septic permit, plus water and power already established. Imagine building your dream home overlooking beautiful rolling pastures, surrounded by open space, privacy, and breathtaking country sunsets. EXCEPTIONALLY IMPROVED & READY TO ENJOY The property features an impressive collection of established improvements, including: • 42' × 25' metal garage on a concrete slab • 18' × 45' covered RV storage with a 50-amp hookup • Full perimeter fencing • Multiple fenced and sectioned pastures • Shed-row barn with equestrian amenities • Chicken coop and small-animal run-in • Large established garden area • Established pastures with potential for hay production and baling • Water and electricity already on-site Whether you envision horses grazing in the pastures, raising livestock, establishing a homestead, or simply enjoying the peace and freedom of country living, this property offers an incredible head start. POTENTIAL AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY-TAX BENEFITS Another significant advantage is that the property is currently enrolled in an agricultural-use tax program, which may offer substantial property-tax savings for qualifying owners. Our goal in considering an 8- or 12-acre division is to preserve the larger remaining tract's potential eligibility for the program. Continued participation would depend on applicable acreage, use, ownership, and county requirements. We're happy to share information about the program and discuss what may be required to maintain these benefits. PEACEFUL. PRIVATE. IMPROVED. BUILD-READY. Properties offering this combination of acreage, established infrastructure, flexibility, and country charm are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Waxhaw and Union County. Purchase the entire 20+ acres or let's discuss creating the perfect 8- or 12-acre property for you! Bring your horses, bring your animals, build your dream home, and start living the country lifestyle you've always wanted. Interested? Send us a message to learn more, discuss acreage options, or schedule a private showing!
