This charming home has so much to offer! It's fenced with a large detached garage, and includes a fireplace, a full basement, screened patio, beautiful yard and more! You'll enjoy a pleasing, southern view of heavy tree coverage from this incredibly private location. Found in the end of a cul-de-sac in Phase 7 of Hearthstone Ridge, there's only one other house - tucked behind a long driveway - and not visible from this one. Found on the north edge of the gated community, behind this house is a 382-acre farm, which is heavily wooded as it meets the shared border. On the main floor, the west side of the central staircase features the primary bedroom - the other side features the living, kitchen and dining areas (plus the fireplace and basement access). A jack & jill full bath is accessible from either side. Hardwood (hickory) flooring is found throughout this level. The second level is floored in pine, and sports two generous bedrooms and the second full bathroom between. The basement features the laundry area (washer/dryer conveys), and an incredibly efficient GE GeoSpring heat-pump water heater. You'll also find the air-handling unit of the Carrier heat pump system, along with ample, dry storage. There's access to the screened-in patio and large garage, where a riding lawn mower waits for its new owner. Starlink, Spectrum cable or T-Mobile Home Internet are all great options for supplying your internet needs and staying connected. (Starlink equipment is included, just establish an account.) This home is on a private well and a (recently pumped) septic system. (We have excellent water in north Rutherford County!) Outside, located behind the insulated out-building, is an underground propane tank that feeds an emergency generator as well as the fireplace. One fenced area (off the screened porch) is alongside and behind the house, the sides and front yards are also fenced, and only separated by the concrete driveway. Siding is low-maintenance HardieBoard, while thick, architectural shingles cover the roof. Hearthstone Ridge is five miles north of Rutherfordton, the seat of Rutherford County in western North Carolina. Featuring two gated entrances, the community sits just fourteen miles south of Interstate 40.

The photo with the sunset view was taken from Lot 27 when the gated community opened in 2007. The trees in the foreground now have an additional 20 years of growth, so without also purchasing Lot 29 to the northwest (and doing a little clearing), the current view will not be the same. (Lot 29 is available.) This 1.19 acre parcel would be perfect for building your new home on a walk-out basement, but any foundation you choose would work - either way, you'll sit above many others. It features gently sloping land. Part of a ridge, Lot 27 (located in Phase One of Hearthstone Ridge) features gentle slopes that nearly level out at the highest points. Laced with deer trails and blanketed with pine straw and grapevine, you'll find a few hardwoods scattered in the mix of mostly Carolina pines. Along the northeast border is a farm (horses & cows), though the farm land here is steep and heavily wooded as it meets this residential lot, so it's unlikely that you'll ever see horses visiting along the property line. Rising up from the paved road and with its light underbrush, the land is easy enough to walk and explore. It will be an easy lot to build on, and provide a considerable amount of privacy. Featuring two gated entrances, Hearthstone Ridge is five miles north of Rutherfordton, the county seat. Here, you will find little in the way of commercialism and tourism, and an abundance of peace & quiet. The community requires a twelve hundred square foot minimum build.

Located in gated Hearthstone Ridge, this property is moderately wooded with a mix of hardwoods/evergreens. It sits above the road, and when you're ready to build, it offers a great view of the mountains! This parcel's east border helps form one edge of the community. It's backed up by a land-locked parcel of 80-acres, home to deer and other wildlife. The photo was taken from this parcel about five years ago...the view hasn't changed, but some trees have grown. Most of them are the trees you'll be taking down when you are building your new home! The parcel originally had a septic permit for a three-bedroom home (now expired) from the Health Department. The gentle slope will be easy to build on, and offers excellent drainage. The minimum building size for a home in Hearthstone Ridge is 1,200 sq. ft. of heated indoor living space, not including basements, porches or garages. There are no maximum size restrictions.

Just over an acre and a half, this lot sits on Whitestone Circle, in the gated community of Hearthstone Ridge. Potential mountain views would be best from a second story or loft. This property is lightly wooded, mostly near-level with some gently sloping land - easy to build on, no matter what your design entails. If a walk-out basement foundation is in your plans, this parcel will work just fine, and if a one-level home is more to your liking, that's going to work, too! While it's true a second level will enjoy a mountain view, it's this gorgeous location you'll want to consider. A somewhat rural location with clean air, clean water and a sky full of stars, yet close to town for necessities and conveniences. Hearthstone Ridge has light restrictions (1,200 sf min, no mobile homes, no time frame to build) and dues of only $435/year to maintain the paved roads.

A private, estate-sized parcel, this property is a gorgeous example of western NC beauty. The land rolls and undulates while still offering plenty of room for your home site, no matter what your plans are. There's little undergrowth because of the massive hardwood canopy. (You'll have plenty of shade during the warm summer months, and after the vibrant autumn leaves fall, you'll have sunlight streaming in all winter long.) This wooded parcel is located in gated Hearthstone Ridge, and features a near-level driveway already in place, leading to an excellent potential home site. The property backs up to an 80-acre parcel of land outside the community that is land-locked, making this paradise so much more private! We hope you don't mind deer, because this is one of their favorite spaces to travel through, judging by the abundance of tracks.
