A fantastic canvas for investors, business owners, or homebuyers who want to put their own stamp on it.

(*3rd room was converted to a "den" area with a woodstove, which can be turned back into a bedroom.) All of this is just minutes to downtown Rutherfordton, with its charming shops, restaurants, and historic square. Outdoor lovers will appreciate the proximity to hiking, biking, and nearby Lake Lure for water adventures. Affordable, versatile, and full of potential—don’t let this one pass you by!
