About this home

Rare opportunity to own your own mini real estate empire in Rutherfordton, NC! It includes: 1) a single family remodeled home 2) a space collecting $400 per month lot rent (single wide not owned by seller) 3) additional land across the road from home 4) space to the right of the single family home where another home used to sit. Speak with Rutherford county to discover all the options this property offers! Use the lot rent income to offset your mortgage payment in the 2026 economy. The manufactured home is not owned by the seller and is currently on month to month rental. The two current homes there share a septic system that was pumped in May 2025. 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.

The 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.

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. The seller is including select building materials to help complete your vision. There is even an extra new mini split being left, per seller. 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.
