Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Rare opportunity to own your own mini real estate empire in Rutherfordton. The main home features solid cinder block construction topped with a durable metal roof and has been thoughtfully updated with recent renovations. Vaulted ceilings highlight the main level, along with an open concept kitchen and living area finished with LVP flooring. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom with tile finishes are also located on the main level. Each level of the home is equipped with its own new mini split system for efficient comfort. The basement level includes a walk in laundry room and additional space that could be used as a bedroom or second living area. A toilet is already in place in the bathroom area, leaving the rest ready for your customization. Seller is including select building materials to help complete your vision. There is even an extra mini split being left. Adding to the income potential, a single wide manufactured home currently sits on the property with a lot rent of $400 per month. The manufactured home is not owned by the seller and can remain or be removed based on buyer preference. The two residences share a 1500 gallon septic system that was pumped in May 2025, and each has separate power, water, and gas meters. To the right of the main home is an additional homesite where a residence once stood, offering even more potential for expansion. Across the road, approximately 0.44 acres is included with the parcel and provides further possibilities for building or investment. Conveniently located just moments from Rutherford Regional Health System with easy access to Highway 108 and 221, this property offers flexibility, income potential, and room to grow.
