A Rare 7.8-Acre Historic Compound in the Carolina Foothills! Steeped in over 130 years of rich history and surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Carolina foothills, The Estate at Oak Grove is far more than a residence—it is a legacy waiting for its next chapter. Offered with no HOA, this rare 7.85-acre sanctuary boasts a beautiful farmhouse, country feel, making it perfectly suited for a discerning buyer looking to consolidate equity and invest in the last, finest home they will ever need to buy. At the heart of the estate stands a lovingly maintained 1894 historic farmhouse offering 3,085 sq ft of timeless elegance, plus an additional 992 sq ft of finished basement rec space complete with a pool table that remains. This 4 BR, 4 BA masterpiece flows gracefully from the grand foyer and formal dining room to the sunroom and spacious den, where a fireplace serves as the focal point. With hardwood floors throughout, it masterfully blends historic soul with top-tier modern reliability. Peace of mind is entirely built-in with a whole-home Generac generator, city water, a large stand-up attic, and a brand-new heat pump and well pump for the gardens installed in May 2026. Beyond the threshold lies an expansive, private landscape where space truly breathes. This is land you can walk at dawn, wandering through beautifully curated gardens alive with over 500 varieties of named, hybridized daylilies, (with the American Hemerocallis Society), roses, perennials, raised beds, asparagus, fruit-bearing blueberry, elderberry, and fig trees, alongside a small unheated greenhouse and a private wildlife and bird sanctuary. For outdoor living and entertaining, the oversized Trex deck and classic wraparound porch lead to a resort-style swimming pool added in 2022. Nearby, a gorgeous gazebo, an arbor, and a rustic cross frame a tranquil, stocked fish pond—creating an idyllic backdrop for quiet family time or unforgettable wedding ceremonies.

An investor can effortlessly run the historic main house as a luxury boutique short-term rental while living in the second, or tap into the booming North Carolina wedding venue market. Weekend event revenue alone at comparable venues demonstrates strong earning potential per event. Additionally, a 900 sq ft outbuilding with its own dedicated Generac generator and laundry—previously used for raising AKC Maltese—stands primed for premium boarding/kennel services or wedding support, presenting a significant source of annual revenue. The location perfectly balances peaceful country seclusion with destination appeal. Situated just 10 min from Hickory and Newton and 45 min from Charlotte, the estate is 30 min from Lake Hickory; 45 min to Lake Norman and Lake James. It places world-class recreation at your doorstep, sitting just 5 min from the renowned Hart Square Log Cabin Museum, 30 min from South Mountain State Park, and 45 min from the Blue Ridge Parkway and ski resorts.
