If you've been settling for a backyard, this isn't that. This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home on a private 0.8-acre corner lot in Midland was built for people who actually use their outdoor space - a fenced in-ground pool, dedicated outdoor kitchen area under a pergola, hot tub under its own covered structure, and a retractable awning extending the living area off the back of the home. It's a full outdoor setup that would cost well over $100K to replicate. Inside, 3,147 sq ft of well-proportioned living space gives you room to breathe - open main level with kitchen island, pantry, and French doors, plus four bedrooms, a bonus room, and laundry upstairs. The 2-car garage and expanded driveway handle up to 6 vehicles with ease. What makes this lot rare is the wooded buffer along the side - a natural privacy screen you simply don't find on newer construction. Fruit trees, large storage shed, and updated landscaping round out a property that functions like a private retreat while sitting minutes from shopping, dining, and Cabarrus County's well-regarded schools. Pre-inspected, warranted through 2-10, and priced with serious buyers in mind. Come see what $599,000 actually buys in this market.
