Mint Hill, NC Happy 4th of July!! I live in Mint Hill and and sell Mint Hill, NC homes and I must say we are a very patriotic bunch. My subdivision, Ellington Farm, has a contest every year to see who can decorate their house, yard, mailbox in the most patriotic manor. We have great fun starting with a parade from all willing neighbors who compete for most patriotic costume, float, bike and dog. After we parade around the neighborhood we break for lunch and have a neighborhood picnic along with games and even a watermelon eating contest (we're also very competitive).

This year's events did not disappoint and I think you will agree by the pictures how much fun we have. If you are thinking of moving to Mint Hill, NC and are interested in Mint Hill homes for sale or homes for sale in Ellington Farm, you won't find a better place to live.
