BACK ON THE MARKET NO FAULT OF SELLER Tucked away on 37 unrestricted acres in the rolling foothills of North Carolina, this extraordinary homestead offers the rare combination of a brand-new custom home, income-producing potential, and a landscape so rich in character it practically tells its own story. Built in 2024, this 2,144 sq. ft. craftsman-quality residence features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a bonus room, and a 2-car attached garage, all sitting above a spacious crawl space with 8-foot walls ready to be transformed into a workshop, root cellar, or finished basement. Three-zone HVAC keeps every corner of the home comfortable year-round, including dedicated systems for the primary suite, bonus room, and main living area, while a storage room over the garage adds even more functionality. Car enthusiasts, contractors, and hobbyists will be thrilled by the massive 1,620 sq. ft. detached 4-bay garage, complete with two 16-foot roll-up doors, spray foam insulation, and a wood-burning stove, creating a comfortable and efficient workspace year-round. One bay has already been converted into a private in-law suite or rental unit, offering immediate income potential, and a chicken coop rounds out the working infrastructure of the property. Near the main road sits a second RV lot or future homesite already equipped with its own power, septic, and water hookups. Perfect for extended family, a guest cottage, rental income, or a future build. This is where the property truly shines. A year-round creek winds the entire length of the property parallel to Terry Road before feeding into historic Puzzle Creek. Multiple ATV, motorcycle, and horse trails crisscross the acreage, kept neatly mowed in season, and connect to neighboring riding trails beyond the property line. Eight acres surrounding the home are enclosed with underground fencing, ideal for dogs or livestock. The land is a forager’s and farmer’s dream with two apple trees, peach and pear trees, a blueberry bush, fig bush, loads of wild blackberries, a flower garden bursting with rose bushes and annuals, and stunning peony and evergreen plantings. A potential natural spring near the base of the driveway awaits confirmation, adding even more value to this already remarkable property. Hunters will appreciate that the property previously operated as a hunting lease and includes two enclosed deer stands. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, and coyote are frequent visitors, and the occasional black bear has been spotted nearby. The creek bottom and hardwood timber create ideal habitat and natural funnels. For the history buff and the adventurer alike, Puzzle Creek carries the lore of Abraham Lincoln’s earliest childhood home site, marked nearby and celebrated at a museum in Bostic. Just beyond the property line, a cluster of rock-piled grave sites believed to date back to Civil War soldiers, Native American, or early settlers adds a fascinating historical element. Exposed bedrock along the creek also offers opportunities for recreational gold panning. Enjoy peace, privacy, and star-filled skies while still being just 15–20 minutes from the shops, restaurants, and conveniences of Shelby, Forest City, Rutherfordton, and Spindale. No restrictions. No HOA. Hunt it, farm it, or build your private compound this is land that truly lets you live life on your terms.

Hardwoods are predominant on this large parcel in the gated community, with several old beech trees making an enduring (and endearing) statement. Of course it'll be your option, but you might choose to build half way down the first slope using a circular driveway, keeping things simple and providing easy access. It's also likely that you'll only have one step into your home! Building down a bit further, the old road bed could serve as the walking out part of a walk-out basement. It might be nice to cut a set of steps into the hill (similar to what you find at a state park), with a landing or two, giving easier access to the level land and stream below in the lower portion of this beautiful property. Imagine the view from your deck! And the near-level portion below could offer a lovely enhancement to your view from above - it could be a massive garden, a park or play space! Being located in the foothills offers easy, practical living - this land is just a ten-minute drive into town. Clearwater Creek is quiet, three miles north of the county seat of Rutherfordton, and features low annual dues.

Not all luxury is constructed. Some of it is discovered! Offered at a level seldom seen for an asset of this magnitude, Shoal Ridge + Falls Road presents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire 160+± acres of gated, generational land in the foothills of Western North Carolina—where elevation, water, privacy, and long-range vistas intersect with intention. This is not merely acreage; it is a place of presence and permanence. Fog drifts through the valleys at dawn, sunsets ignite the ridgelines in warm light, and evening skies reveal uninterrupted constellations—each day offering a different expression of the landscape’s quiet power. From select elevated vantage points, the property captures 100-mile+/- layered mountain panoramas across the Blue Ridge. On exceptionally clear days, binocular-assisted sightlines may extend to the distant Black Mountains, including Mount Mitchell, as well as far-off summits near Mount Pisgah and Waterrock Knob. Even under cloud cover, the overlapping ridges deliver exceptional depth, scale, and atmosphere—views that consistently outperform expectations. The land itself is defined by rare natural elements: • A private waterfall estimated at approximately 175 ft+/- • A natural cave, accessed by a private trail, showcasing striking teal-toned water • A pond and gently flowing creeks with sandy beds • Multiple carefully positioned, cleared homesites, each offering separation and distinct outlooks • An established interior road network throughout Currently configured across multiple parcels—including five 19–20± acre tracts at Shoal Ridge and additional Falls Road acreage—this offering allows for singular estate ownership, selective subdivision, or long-term stewardship as a private preserve or retreat-oriented compound. The groundwork has already been laid. Gated access, underground power, shared well infrastructure, and internal roads are in place—removing common development barriers while preserving freedom of design. With no HOA, no minimum square footage requirements, and only light original covenants affecting portions of the land, this property offers autonomy rarely found at this scale. Despite its seclusion, the location remains highly convenient—minutes to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, and Hendersonville, with accessible routes to Asheville, Greenville/Spartanburg, and Charlotte for regional and international connectivity.

Not all luxury is built. Some of it is discovered. An extraordinary opportunity awaits within New Forest Mountain—over 60+ acres of gated, infrastructure-ready land anchored by one of the most compelling natural features in Western North Carolina: your own private ±175-foot waterfall, cascading through the heart of the property and setting the tone for a sanctuary that is both powerful and serene. This is far more than a mountain tract. It is a rare convergence of scale, water, elevation, and readiness—a setting where sweeping, unobstructed mountain views frame a landscape shaped by flowing creeks, quiet forest paths, and dramatic changes in terrain. Here, every step feels intentional, every vista earned. Private trails invite exploration—leading to sandy-bottom streams, shaded swimming holes, and the waterfall itself, where a natural rock ledge forms a cooling cascade and an unforgettable sensory experience. The sound of moving water, the stillness of the forest, and the privacy of the land create a sense of calm that is increasingly difficult to find. Beyond the waterfall, the property features a tranquil man-made pond, meandering creeks, abundant wildlife, and multiple cleared homesites, each thoughtfully positioned to offer privacy and commanding outlooks. The foundation is already in place: underground power and water access are installed, allowing you to move directly into the building phase—whether your vision is a refined mountain retreat, a contemporary glass residence, or a collection of cabins designed for family, guests, or legacy use. Located within a secure, gated mountain community, this tract balances seclusion with accessibility. Enjoy proximity to everyday essentials while remaining centrally positioned—approximately one hour to Asheville or Greenville/Spartanburg, 1.5 hours to Charlotte, and just minutes from Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, and Hendersonville for dining, recreation, and seasonal events. Notable Features: • Private ±175-foot waterfall—rare, dramatic, and entirely yours • Over 60+ acres of diverse, usable terrain • Multiple cleared homesites with long-range mountain views • Underground power in place; water available • Pond, creeks, trail system, and natural recreation areas • Gated setting offering privacy and peace of mind Additional acreage and unique features may be available by request, including access to a private natural cave, expanded homesites, and extended mountain views—with the potential to combine into a much larger legacy holding. Properties of this caliber—especially those defined by water, views, and readiness—are exceptionally difficult to replicate at any price point. Proof of funds or pre-approval required prior to touring. Agent-accompanied showings only. This is a land offering that must be walked, heard, and felt to be fully understood.
