Residential Land with Home for Sale in Maiden, North Carolina
5394 S NC 16 Business Hgwy Dr, Maiden, NC 28650
This is the kind of property people look for when they want space, freedom, and options-without giving up convenience. Set on 1.57 acres along NC 16 Business in Maiden, NC, and close to NC 150 and NC 16, this property offers room to build, create, and live without feeling boxed in. Sit on the deck in the evenings and watch the sun set over South Mountain. It's quiet. It's peaceful. And it feels like home. The house was built in 1930 and offers three bedrooms and two full baths with approximately 1,280 square feet of living space. About 389 square feet has ceiling heights under 7 feet, offering an opportunity for future expansion. Ever dream of vaulted ceilings? This is your chance to pop the roof and transform the space. Updates over the years keep the home comfortable and functional, including a 2017 roof, updated flooring, and a bright kitchen and dining area filled with windows. A working wood stove adds warmth, character, and a second heat source. Propane heat, central air, well, and septic keep things simple and efficient. Crawl space has been taken care of by Dry Otter in 2018. What truly sets this property apart is the land. A 20' x 70' greenhouse sits beside the home, ready for growing, experimenting, or producing whatever you have in mind. There's a compost area with years of rich, established compost you can't buy in a store. You'll also find three sheds, including a wired metal garage/shop, plus wide-open space that gives you real flexibility. Build a large garage, car - dominium, workshop, or artist studio. Add a pool or a pond. Create a firepit. Bring the toys, the tools, and the big ideas. This property gives you room to dream-and room to make it happen. The location strikes a rare balance. You're just minutes from shopping, groceries, and daily essentials in Maiden, Sherrills Ford, and Denver, with easy access to NC 16 and NC 150. Charlotte Douglas International Airport is approximately 35-40 minutes away, making commuting and travel realistic-without living in the middle of it all. This isn't a cookie-cutter home. It's a property with land, flexibility, and opportunity-ready for someone who wants more than just a house. Please do not drive down driveway, especially in snow and ice. Thank you.
