Description

Sitting proudly on a corner lot with endless potential, this solid Rutherfordton home is ready for your vision. Priced at just $199,000 —and even less if purchased “as is”—this is truly a steal in today’s market! A fantastic canvas for investors, business owners, or homebuyers who want to put their own stamp on it. With its prime corner location, this property offers MANY possible uses—residential or commercial. Imagine enjoying winter mountain views from your yard, expanding into the unfinished basement for extra space, or getting creative with the existing slab—perfect for a carport, a pickleball court, or even a backyard hangout spot. The house has withstood storms and remains solid, so you’re starting with great bones! Act now with an offer and lock in the deal! (*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!
