More DetailsWatch the sun setting over the mountains from the front porch of this genuine log cabin! It sits on Lot 198 in Phase Seven of Hearthstone Ridge, just north of Rutherfordton, NC. The cabin, built in 2014, had its exterior recently re-stained (2023) with a solid color stain (which holds up better than a transparent stain). A number of expensive upgrades, additions and installations adds significant value to this charming cabin!
The owners had a lengthy concrete driveway poured, with retaining walls and drainage as it should be done. A massive carport was added, spec'd and built to potentially serve as a full addition, if someone wants to pursue the idea. It could also be closed in as a free-standing, detached garage, and the high, 12' ceilings leave room for your RV if you choose.
Another outdoor bonus is the large 16'x24' shed, with a full garage door entry, beautifully clad in synthetic tree bark siding. Other notables are the screened back porch, and steps with a custom, decorative rail leading up the bank in the back yard. Maybe the best feature of all is when you walk around to side of the home and discover the whole-house, fully automatic, self-starting, propane-fueled generator. (A 1,000 gallon below-ground propane tank is buried nearby.) It worked flawlessly during Hurricane Helene, and runs a self-check every Wednesday for five minutes.
Once you step inside, you'll notice this cabin offers a vaulted ceiling in the great room. The cozy space includes a gas fireplace, just the thing for cool, cozy nights in this four-season climate! You'll probably notice the oak hardwood floors throughout the house, which features a split floorplan.
In the kitchen, take a look at the thick slab of walnut that makes up the countertop on the island! Other countertops are easy-care solid surface, and inside the cabinetry are numerous hardware slides and drawers that just make life easier. Cooks will enjoy the gas stove, too, plus a new Bosch refrigerator is included with your purchase. Adjacent to the kitchen is the laundry/utility room, upgraded with cabinetry for additional storage, and the washer/dryer will convey.
The large primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and en suite with a double vanity and walk-in shower, while the second bedroom is still plenty roomy for an office, guests, or whatever you have in mind. A Starlink system will keep you connected with high speed internet - the seller-owned hardware is included!
Being located in the foothills offers easy, practical living - this one's just a twelve-minute drive into town. Hearthstone Ridge is quiet - five and a half miles north of the county seat of Rutherfordton - and with low dues of only $435/yr, the gated community offers security and peace of mind.
