649 Clearwater Pkwy, Rutherfordton, NC 28139

Together, the main level and loft of this log cabin measure 1,500 sq.ft. - the fully finished walk-out basement adds another 934 sq.ft. of heated living space, with one bedroom / bath on each level. The genuine log construction, heart pine flooring throughout, and stacked stone fireplace combine to create a nice rustic statement. It's sitting on a beautiful 1.87 acre lot, and is currently on a rental program so no walk-ups, please. (Call or text agent for showing instructions.) ¶ This home sits high and was built to take advantage of the park-like setting in the desirable, gated Clearwater Creek community. Beautifully landscaped, the year 'round creek in the front yard not only adds charm, but the sound of rushing water can be heard from the large porch, which wraps around two sides of the home. From there you'll notice the views of nature from every vantage point, and you'll probably spend much of your free time enjoying all four seasons from the spacious covering. Adjacent wooded properties give shelter to the white-tailed deer, which you're bound to see on a regular basis. Note: if the stairs are an issue, consider using the side driveway (currently gravel) to access the back porch, which could be a primary entrance if you choose! ¶ Inside, heart pine flooring is featured over much of the home, with carpeting on the stairs, in the loft and basement, while ceramic tile flooring was used in the baths. An expansive, comfortable living area features a stacked stone gas fireplace with a built-in for the television. The adjacent dining area sports a sliding door to a covered porch for access to the clean, concrete patio outside, where the built-in grill will enhance your outdoor recreation time. ¶ The kitchen has a perfect 'work triangle', excellent lighting, and features a breakfast bar on one end, near the dining area. Plenty of cabinet space and counter top makes food prep easier, with enough room to share the chore if you like cooking together. The master bedroom is on the main level, with ample closet space and a large en suite. The second bedroom is in the huge loft and features a beautiful room with its own private Juliette balcony! (The loft has plenty of additional room to create office space, add a pool table, add bunk beds, or whatever you like.) The third bedroom is on the ground level in the walk-out basement, where you'll also find plenty of extra space for games, entertaining, or whatever 'floats your boat' (yes, worth mentioning this home is near Lake Lure - a 20 minute drive to the golf course, marina, and boat rentals, maybe 30 minutes to the beach area). ¶ Please call when scheduling a showing. This property has a strong rental history, which means (as you can see in the photos) that the property is well-maintained, clean, and offers potential income for an investor or interested buyer, but its location makes it perfect for a full time resident to enjoy this quiet, off-the-beaten-path area. No traffic and there's a sky full of stars on a clear night. Clean air, clean water, friendly people, simple, quiet. ¶ Clearwater Creek is north of Rutherfordton, the county seat of Rutherford County in western North Carolina. Large grocery stores, healthcare, shopping, restaurants and just about anything you need is a ten to fifteen minute drive away. Located on the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains - Come visit this unspoiled area!
