182 Bellwood Loop unit: 22 22, Statesville, NC 28625

Tucked away on over half an acre, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home feels more like a Blue Ridge getaway than a city address. Inside, a wide-open living area with plenty of natural sunlight from floor to ceiling windows, wraps around a cozy fireplace that divides the living and dining spaces-perfect for gatherings or quiet nights in. Step outside and it's pure magic. A sprawling deck with a sunken hot tub overlooks your private, wooded retreat. Enjoy handcrafted wooden swings, a hammock area under the trees, a dedicated bonfire pit with its own wood shed, a powered outbuilding that has been used as a woodworking shop, and plenty of space to breathe. Here, you're minutes from Statesville's conveniences, yet surrounded by the peace of your own mountain-style escape! Some other notable things to mention... Ivy has been planted around the exterior, creating an evergreen carpet that thrives even under the deep shade of mature trees. Traditional grass struggles to grow here because of the dense canopy and the slope of the property. Even if it did, mowing would be nearly impossible. That's why Ivy is the perfect solution-it stays vibrant and green throughout the year, adding natural beauty to the landscape even in the heart of winter, when other plants look dormant. The real magic lies in how the Ivy manages the massive volume of leaves that fall each autumn. Instead of endless raking or bagging, the leaves are simply left in place. The Ivy gradually pulls them down, turning them into rich, organic soil by spring. New Ivy growth conceals any remnants, ensuring the yard always looks fresh and well-kept. All that's needed is the occasional use of a leaf blower to keep pathways, the deck, and the driveway clear. No mowing, no raking-just a quick trim along the paths a few times a year. In addition to its beauty and ease, the Ivy helps retain soil moisture and acts as a natural fire break, offering peace of mind during dry spells. For added convenience and security, the home is equipped with a professionally installed transfer switch by Energy United. Connected directly to the meter, this setup allows you to easily connect a generator to the entire house during power outages. You'll never have to worry about losing comfort or essential functions during storms or emergencies. If you're seeking a home with low-maintenance landscaping, year-round curb appeal, and modern utility upgrades, this property is a must-see.
