About this home

Welcome home to this charming all-brick ranch nestled in the quaint and established Northview Park neighborhood of Rutherfordton. Offering 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and nearly 1,000 square feet of comfortable living space, this move-in-ready home combines timeless character with valuable updates, making it an excellent choice for first-time homebuyers, downsizers, investors, or anyone looking for low-maintenance living. Inside, you'll find beautifully refinished hardwood floors that add warmth and charm throughout much of the home. The spacious living area flows into a bright kitchen featuring all newer appliances, providing a functional space for everyday living and entertaining. A large laundry/mud room offers additional storage and flexibility and could easily be converted into a primary bathroom, creating the potential for a true primary suite. Major updates have already been completed for added peace of mind, including a new roof installed in 2020, a new water heater in 2021, refinished hardwood floors, and updated kitchen appliances. The home is served by city water, septic, central heating and air, and includes a detached one-car garage with additional driveway parking. Step outside to enjoy the level, fenced backyard, offering plenty of room for pets, gardening, outdoor entertaining, or simply relaxing around the fire pit. The property also includes a storage building, providing extra space for tools, lawn equipment, or hobbies. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Situated in a quiet, established neighborhood, you'll enjoy the convenience of being approximately 6 minutes from Rutherford Regional Medical Center, about 20 minutes to the Tryon International Equestrian Center, and just 20 minutes from the beautiful waters, restaurants, and outdoor recreation of Lake Lure.
