Description

Tucked away along the edge of the South Mountains in Western North Carolina, this charming cabin on 8+ acres offering exceptional peace and natural beauty. Property is best suited for enjoyment as-is and is not intended for further development or additional structures. A garage or outbuilding near the home would be a possibility. The land offers the perfect balance of rustic beauty and modern comfort. Surrounded by towering hardwoods and the sounds of nature, this private retreat invites you to truly unplug and unwind. Explore your own wooded acreage or venture onto the nearby trails of the adjacent NC Game Land—outdoor adventure is right at your doorstep. Inside, the cabin welcomes you with a warm and inviting living room featuring vaulted ceilings, rich wood interiors, and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. West-facing picture windows fill the space with natural light and frame breathtaking sunset views each evening. Step outside onto the wraparound porch—ideal for morning coffee among the trees or relaxing evenings under a canopy of stars. The upper-level bath offers a spa-like experience with a newly updated walk-in tiled shower (2024) and a jetted tub. Thoughtful updates provide peace of mind, including a new HVAC system with Nest thermostat (2023), new well and pump (2022), and a durable metal roof (2021). An outdoor shed adds additional storage for tools and gear. Whether you’re searching for a peaceful getaway, a second home, or a full-time mountain escape, this property captures the timeless magic of life in the North Carolina mountains. Located just 20–30 minutes from Marion, Rutherfordton, Forest City, and Morganton, you’ll enjoy both seclusion and convenience. As an added bonus, walk across the street to access over 500 acres of NC State Forest protected game lands—perfect for hiking, exploring, and connecting with nature.
