Few mountain properties offer the story, flexibility, and possibilities found on this 10-acre retreat just minutes from downtown Rutherfordton, less than 20 miles from Lake Lure and Chimney Rock State Park, and about an hour from Asheville. The custom-built 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath log cabin was handcrafted from timber milled directly from the property, creating a home rich in character with exposed wood beams, custom details, and thoughtfully designed living spaces. In addition to the main home, the property includes a 2-bedroom, 1-bath guest cabin currently operating as a short-term rental, a second cabin under development, and multiple additional homesites—ideal for a family compound, retreat, or expanded rental opportunity. Enjoy a stocked fishing pond, peaceful waterfall with a meditation area, creek, gem mine replica, mountain views, and wooded privacy. The hangar provides a unique opportunity for aviation enthusiasts to store their aircraft, while equestrian buyers may envision converting the space into a barn to complement the property's proximity to the Tryon International Equestrian Center, located less than 10 miles away. Further down the property, you'll find far more than a typical garage: Moonshiner's Garage is a destination of its own—offering a vehicle lift, generous workshop space, and plenty of room for collectors, hobbyists, and automotive enthusiasts. Whether you're looking for a mountain retreat, aviation property, income-producing investment, or legacy estate, 1002 C C Road is a rare opportunity unlike any other.

Some places simply feel different. At 540 Crutchfield Road, the landscape has been shaping memories long before the home was ever built. Massive hardwood trees, now more than a century old, frame the property with their sprawling branches and welcome shade. Beyond them, open pastures roll toward the horizon where the Blue Ridge Mountains rise in the distance, creating a view that never seems to get old. From the living room, the mountains become part of everyday life. Morning coffee comes with a front-row seat to changing seasons, drifting clouds, and the quiet beauty that makes this part of North Carolina so special. The home itself has been thoughtfully refreshed with new flooring and fresh paint throughout, creating a clean and inviting space ready for its next chapter. Offering three bedrooms, one full bath, and a convenient half bath, the single-level layout is comfortable, practical, and easy to enjoy. A full basement provides additional storage and workspace below. Outside, a large wooden workshop stands ready for projects, equipment, hobbies, or simply a place to tinker. The yard offers plenty of room to spread out, garden, or relax beneath the shade of trees that have stood here for generations. The property has also been recently surveyed, with boundary markers already in place, making it easy to understand exactly what you're purchasing. This isn't a subdivision home with a mountain-themed name and a distant glimpse of a ridge. This is a genuine foothills property where the views are real, the trees are old, and life moves at just the right pace.

Where panoramic mountain views meet the feel of a private rainforest retreat, this one-of-a-kind custom home creates an experience unlike anything else on the market. Positioned at the very end of a quiet cul-de-sac inside the gated Vista at Bill’s Mountain community, the property is surrounded by protected natural beauty, with a rushing mountain stream and walking trail just beyond the backyard. From sunrise over the long-range mountain views to evenings spent listening to the sounds of the creek from your deck, every space was designed to connect you with nature while still offering refined luxury and comfort. Expansive windows flood the home with natural light, soaring ceilings create an impressive sense of scale, and the open-concept layout flows effortlessly for entertaining or everyday living. The heart of the home is anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living areas, while the chef’s kitchen offers premium stainless appliances, generous gathering space, and easy access to multiple outdoor decks. The main-level primary suite provides a peaceful escape with direct access to the outdoor living spaces, creating the perfect place to unwind after a day in the mountains. The lower levels offer incredible flexibility with spacious recreation areas, guest accommodations, and bonus rooms ideal for additional sleeping quarters, office space, or hobby rooms. With no homes beyond your view line and fewer than 100 homes throughout this 800-acre gated community, privacy here feels truly unmatched. This is not simply a mountain home—it’s a secluded sanctuary where luxury and nature exist in perfect balance.
