About Carolina Horse Farm Realty
Dedicated to helping horse enthusiasts find their perfect equestrian property in the Carolina Piedmont. Our passion for horses drives everything we do.
Our Story
Carolina Horse Farm Realty was founded with a simple yet powerful vision: to be the trusted partner for horse lovers seeking their dream equestrian property in the Charlotte Metro area.
As lifelong equestrians ourselves, we understood the frustration of working with agents who didn't grasp the unique requirements of horse properties. The difference between a good pasture and a great one, the importance of proper barn ventilation, the need for safe fencing and adequate turnout space these details matter immensely to horse owners.
That's why we built a team of agents who are not just real estate professionals, but genuine horse people. We ride, we train, we compete, and we care for our own horses. This firsthand experience means we can evaluate properties with an expert eye and advocate for our clients' equestrian needs.
Today, Carolina Horse Farm Realty is the region's premier equestrian real estate brokerage, helping families across the Carolinas find properties that support their equestrian dreams.
