Some homes offer more than square footage, they offer a story worth carrying forward. Built in 1952 for prominent Landis community benefactors D.C. and Frances Linn, this custom residence pairs gracious scale with distinctive character: a grand entertaining room/20-foot ceilings, a custom staircase, 3/4" wormy chestnut panels and other details, polished hardwood floors, two screened porches, mature gardens, generous vehicle storage, on 1.38 acres in a quiet, walkable neighborhood. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, it is ready for a buyer who values craftsmanship, history, and the opportunity to become the next steward of an exceptional Landis home. If that sounds like you—or someone you know, please reach out for advance listing details and a private first look. What Makes This Property Architecturally Unusual: French Provincial home from 1952 is rare in the Carolinas. Custom-built homes from that era are rarer still. And a home of this scale and finish quality, in this condition, in this location that’s genuinely uncommon. The property reflects the design sensibilities of its time: clean lines, distinctive architectural features, and a transitional character that blends mid-century structure with livable, classic detail. The finishes throughout the home are unusual-not unusual in a quirky sense, but in the way that intentional, crafted spaces feel different from standard construction. You notice it the moment you walk in. The home runs substantially larger than most properties built in this period and price range. Square footage alone won’t capture it. The proportions feel generous without being overwhelming. Rooms have a presence that modern builds rarely replicate. Immaculate maintenance over the decades has preserved much of what makes this home special. That’s not a given with properties of this age. It speaks to how the home was cared for and how a future owner can step in with confidence rather than caution. The Landis Location, Sought After for Good Reason, Landis sits within Rowan County, close to Kannapolis and within reasonable reach of the greater Charlotte metro. It has the feel of a genuine small town with parks, local history, and the kind of walkable character that’s become harder to find. The area where this property is situated is among the most desirable in Landis. Buyers who know the town know exactly which neighborhoods have held their value, held their character, and drawn the kind of long-term residents who take pride in where they live. This is one of those neighborhoods. Signature architectural features include: •Grand room built for entertaining with 20’ ceilings, custom staircase, wood paneling •Unique wormy chestnut (now extinct) throughout the kitchen and den •Hardwood floors •French Provincial (European) exterior •Wrap around driveway Property upgrades •Kitchen upgrades •Bathroom upgrades •2 screened porches •Pergola and patio •Fully encapsulated crawl space with spray insulation •LVP flooring and new plumbing •Rain soft whole house water softener •Kitchen drinking water filter •Fenced backyard Other Property features •Beautiful mature azaleas and shade trees •Organic raised bed garden •2 car garage •2 carports •covered RV parking •2 fireplaces •Quiet, walkable neighborhood •1.38 acres-a custom 1952 residence with mid-century modern influences, transitional details, and a distinctive connection to Landis history. Built for D.C. Linn, one of Landis’s founding mill owners and a notable community benefactor. Its unusual finishes, generous proportions, and architectural character make it an exceptional opportunity for a buyer who values craftsmanship, provenance, and a home unlike any other. Please arrange for your Private Showing.
