Agents: please read agent remarks.   Handyman Special, with income potential!   This genuine log cabin needs someone to give it some TLC. Nearly finished inside and only ever used as a second home, this cabin could use your finishing touches! (Interior trim around windows and doors, flooring in the loft, plus maintenance and some repairs are needed on the cabin's exterior/garage, and a linen closet in the downstairs bath was never finished) With the electric, water well, the septic field and HVAC already installed and functional, you could easily live here while either working on this cabin, or having work done. It has two bedrooms and two full baths - one bedroom and bath is on the main level, the other is upstairs in the loft, which features a Juliette balcony off the open-concept bedroom. You'll also find a fireplace, a covered deck, washer & dryer hookups, and a huge, detached three-car garage/workshop with potential for an apartment over it. Due to the plentiful hardwood leaves, the roofs of both buildings look a little stained, but were redone in 2013. The electrical box is set, but there is no power or water to the garage yet, though there's an abundance of storage room/apartment potential above in this oversized building, plus all your vehicles will fit below (or turn it into a huge shop)! The log cabin was purchased as a "shell' in 2006, the garage built the same year, and although a lot of work was done, it was never quite completed. With a little polish, this could be quite a jewel!   Gated Clearwater Creek is just north of Rutherfordton, the seat of Rutherford County in western North Carolina. You'll find grocery stores, healthcare, shopping, restaurants and just about anything you need is a ten to fifteen minute drive away. You've found a great location!

New, better price! Close to town yet this lot is set in the middle of a serene, park-like forest. Bordering a gentle, meandering creek this is easily one of the prettiest lots in the entire community. Gentle slope with flat areas, easy to build, on a cul-de-sac with plenty of wildlife and deer. Lot is easy to explore. Underground utilities. No damage from Hurricane Helene. Short walk from lot to community park, picnic area with shelter, walking trails and playground. Only 9 miles into the heart of downtown Rutherfordton, 33 miles to Marion and an hour to Asheviile or Gastonia. 10 minutes to the famous Thermal Belt Rail Trail for miles of hiking and biking. Trail merges with the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail. There is so much to do and see in this area with fun day trips in any direction you care to go.

This 1.48 acre lot offers an excellent place to build, and features what might be an old road bed. Well-priced. Covered with mostly Carolina pines, this parcel sits above the road. An easy-to-build-on lot, the slope gets more gentle as one ventures deeper into the land. A gully sits on the west edge, creating a natural boundary to the next property on the northwest. On either side, the residential lots have been built on, giving you clear choices about where you might want to place your new home. The property would easily support either a one-level or walk-out basement foundation. Lot 14 is located near the south gate of the community, providing easy access to town, highways, schools, etc. Being located in the foothills offers easy, practical living - this land is about a five minute drive into town. Clearwater Creek is quiet, yet only three miles north of the county seat of Rutherfordton, and with low dues, the gated community offers security and peace of mind.

This corner residential lot will be easy to build on - it's virtually level with the road, and drops off gently in the back, providing excellent drainage. Perfect for a one-level residence, with room to add a garage, workshops, or anything you like. On the larger boundary line along Midnight Pass, the lot is level. As one walks into the property, it eventually slopes gently down in what would potentially be a backyard. The lot features a handful of mature hardwoods while young pines have started to make their presence known. (The pines could be easily taken out of the way, or left alone to accommodate your landscaping choices.) It's convenient to the north, gated entrance of Clearwater Creek, which sits about 4 miles north of Rutherfordton, making it reasonably close to schools, banks, grocery stores, etc.
