Experience the authentic charm of the North Carolina foothills in this beautifully maintained MOVE-IN READY custom log home. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on nearly two wooded acres, this property offers a peaceful escape with a rare level of care from its sole original owner. It has been exclusively used as a private family getaway and never rented, leaving it in pristine condition. At 1,648 sq. ft., this 3-bedroom cabin delivers significantly more space and versatility than standard 2-bedroom area properties. THE CONVENIENT RETREAT ADVANTAGE: Enjoy an effortless transition into the foothills lifestyle. To provide the ultimate convenience for second-home buyers and short-term rental investors, the sellers are willing to let the property's tasteful wall decor, rugs, select furnishings (some exclusions) and outdoor patio/deck furniture convey separately with an acceptable offer. This allows buyers to skip the hassle of outfitting a mountain home while keeping the real estate transaction completely clean and appraisal-compliant. INTERIOR HIGHLIGHTS: Main Level: Soaring vaulted ceilings, cozy fireplace, spacious kitchen, and a breakfast bar. Two comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the first floor. Upper Level: Private primary suite Flexible Loft Space: Perfect for additional sleeping area, game area, or home office. OUTDOOR LIVING & LOCATION: Secluded Lot: Privacy on 1.81 wooded acres with a serene, end-of-the-road feel. Premium Decks: Covered front porch and an upper sun deck featuring a private hot tub. Foothills Location: Minutes to Rutherfordton dining and breweries, with easy access to Lake Lure, Asheville and Charlotte. Whether you seek a lucrative short-term rental asset or a hassle-free vacation home, this is an incredible quality-per-square-foot log cabin value for the area.
