About this home
Escape to your own private mountain retreat on this stunning 10.79-acre wooded homesite in the sought-after Mountain View Acres community, just minutes from downtown Rutherfordton. Tucked along Wild Turkey Lane at the top of the ridge, this property offers the kind of privacy, elevation, and long-range mountain views that are becoming increasingly hard to find in this price range. The land is heavily wooded, giving you a blank canvas to clear a homesite exactly where you want it while preserving a natural buffer of hardwoods and mountain laurel around your future home. Deer, wild turkey, and songbirds are frequent visitors, and the elevation gain toward the back of the property opens up beautiful seasonal mountain views, imagine sipping coffee on the porch as the fog lifts off the ridgeline. County water and electric are already available at the road, saving you a significant step in the building process. A septic system and well (if desired) would need to be installed, giving you flexibility to design your homesite to your own specifications. With nearly 11 acres to work with, there's plenty of room for a home, outbuildings, gardens, or simply extra buffer between you and the road. Located in Rutherford County just off Hwy 64/74 West and Moss Road, you're close enough to Rutherfordton, Forest City, and Spindale for shopping, dining, and everyday errands, yet far enough removed to enjoy true country quiet. Lake Lure and Chimney Rock State Park are also a short drive away for weekend hiking, boating, and exploring Western North Carolina's mountains. Whether you're dreaming of a private mountain getaway, a forever home site, or simply an investment in raw land with room to grow, this 10.79-acre parcel on Wild Turkey Lane offers the privacy, natural beauty, and convenient location that's hard to beat. Bring your builder and your vision, this one won't last long.
