Belmont, NC 28012

Welcome to 5 South First Street, a well-maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath single-story home offering flexibility, functionality, and income potential in a convenient Gastonia location. Whether you’re searching for a primary residence, short-term rental opportunity, or investment property, this home provides a variety of options to fit your goals. The open-concept layout creates an easy flow between the main living areas, making the home feel bright, inviting, and well-suited for both everyday living and entertaining. With four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the floor plan offers versatility for families, guests, or potential rental configurations. Previously operated as a successful short-term rental, the property is well-positioned for continued Airbnb use or long-term rental income, while still offering a comfortable layout for owner-occupants. The setup allows for a seamless transition depending on how the next owner chooses to utilize the space. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, updated carpet, new front landscaping, and the addition of a fire pit, enhancing both curb appeal and outdoor enjoyment. Additional upgrades such as a replaced exterior electrical panel, Ring flood light, and EV charger add functionality and convenience for modern living. Outside, the home features a nicely sized backyard with space to relax, entertain, or customize to your liking, and sits on an extra-wide lot compared to many homes on the street, providing added outdoor space and flexibility. Ideally situated at the end of a dead-end street with no through traffic, the property offers added privacy while still being just minutes from downtown Gastonia’s shops, restaurants, and local amenities. Enjoy walkability to nearby attractions, quick access to major highways, and an easy commute to Charlotte and the airport. The home is also located just down the street from the revitalized Chronicle Mill redevelopment, adding to the area’s continued growth and appeal. For added convenience, most of the existing furniture can convey with an acceptable offer, creating a largely turnkey opportunity for investors or buyers looking for a move-in-ready option. Washer and dryer can also be included. Located with easy access to local amenities, shopping, and major routes, this property combines simplicity, flexibility, and strong potential in one package.
