Tucked away in the desirable Valley Farm equestrian community in charming Mineral Springs, just five miles from downtown Waxhaw, this picturesque 5+ acre farm offers the charm of an English countryside cottage with all the conveniences of an established horse property. Whether your dream includes horses, a few goats or miniature donkeys, backyard chickens, or simply enjoying a farm-to-table lifestyle, this manageable property offers plenty of possibilities without the upkeep of a large farm. A gated entrance welcomes you beneath mature hardwoods, where established landscaping, shady lawns, and thoughtfully arranged farm amenities create a peaceful country setting. The fenced pastures share a run-in shelter, while the two-stall barn offers a workshop, storage room, covered equipment storage, and a covered sitting area. There's even a greenhouse, raised garden beds, and a covered potting shed for those who enjoy gardening or growing their own produce. The home, originally built in 1992, has benefited from numerous improvements over the past decade, including kitchen updates, replacement windows, a new fireplace, an additional full bath upstairs, an expansive screened porch, and a complete barn conversion. Inside, the floor plan offers an unexpected amount of flexibility, particularly for those who enjoy entertaining. Multiple spaces adjoining the great room can easily accommodate a piano, card table, cozy sitting area, television room, or whatever suits your lifestyle. A full wet bar adds to the home's entertaining appeal. The primary suite includes a spacious walk-in closet with built-in shelving that could also serve as a private office or dressing room. Upstairs, a fireplace, sitting area, and full bath create an inviting guest retreat. One of the home's favorite gathering spots is sure to be the large screened porch, opening to a private courtyard patio with views across the pastures. It's the perfect place for morning coffee, casual dinners, or simply watching the horses graze. Practical features include a three-car side-load garage and additional parking pad, providing plenty of room for vehicles, guests, and farm equipment. And while the setting feels wonderfully rural, you're just minutes from Waxhaw's shops, restaurants, and small-town attractions. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby 1,100-acre Cane Creek Park and the Mineral Springs Greenway, offering opportunities to explore the outdoors and enjoy area trails. If you've dreamed of owning a horse farm or country homestead but weren't interested in starting from scratch, this delightful property may be just what you've been looking for. The fencing, barn, gardens, and outdoor spaces are already in place. All that's missing is your personal touch.
