About this home
A Charming Millstone Drive Gem Tucked into the historic Smyre Mill village, this beautifully renovated cottage at 2878 Millstone Drive is the kind of home that stops you in your tracks. Warm cottage-style charm — while a full renovation brought in a fresh kitchen with wood cabinetry, butcher block counters, backsplash, stainless appliances, new luxury vinyl plank flooring and a brand-new HVAC system. It's move-in ready! Families will love this location. The home sits just steps from Smyre Millenium Park right on Millstone Drive, a neighborhood gem with a paved walking trail, playground, picnic shelter. It's the kind of walkable, community-feel setting that's increasingly hard to find.
Outside, the yard gives kids and pets room to roam safely, and the property's charming storage shed adds practical space for tools, bikes, and outdoor gear without cluttering the home itself. A private driveway offers ample, hassle-free parking — no street-parking headaches here.
And the location couldn't be more convenient: you're minutes from downtown Gastonia's shops, dining, and services, with easy access north to Dallas, NC as well — giving residents the best of small-town charm with quick reach to everyday conveniences on both sides.
Altogether, 2878 Millstone Drive delivers historic character, thoughtful updates, and a genuinely family-friendly setting — a rare combination that makes this cottage a standout in the Gastonia market.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. Christy can introduce you to lenders she trusts.
Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
