Property Description
Beautiful Home with Acreage & Guest Cottage This 3 bed, 2 bath full-brick ranch is surrounded by 4.7 acres of mature woods & blends modern updates with classic charm. Fully renovated in 2023, it features new interior finishes, updated fixtures, and light-filled living spaces. A partially finished basement adds flexibility, along with the covered front porch. A recently finished 500 sq ft detached guest cottage with bath opens the door to multi-generational living, a private home office, or supplemental rental income. Water, septic & power hookups throughout the property, for your own RV or rentals. Outdoors are perfect for entertaining & homesteading. Fully covered firepit area & outdoor kitchen with fridge, grill, and rustic timber countertops. The property also includes a large enclosed chicken coop & run, two covered parking areas, and lush, mature landscaping. Feels secluded yet only minutes from both Rutherfordton and Forest City's shops and dining, and small-town charm. The entire basement is heated and cooled - one portion is currently being used as storage and is not noted in the heated living area square footage.
