Agents: please read agent remarks. Handyman Special, with income potential! This genuine log cabin needs someone to give it some TLC. Nearly finished inside and only ever used as a second home, this cabin could use your finishing touches! (Interior trim around windows and doors, flooring in the loft, plus maintenance and some repairs are needed on the cabin's exterior/garage.) With the electric, water well, the septic field and HVAC already installed and functional, you could easily live here while either working on this cabin, or having work done. It has two bedrooms and two full baths - one bedroom and bath is on the main level, the other is upstairs in the loft, which features a Juliette balcony off the open-concept bedroom. You'll also find a fireplace, a covered deck, washer & dryer hookups, and a huge, detached three-car garage/workshop with potential for an apartment over it. Due to the plentiful hardwood leaves, the roofs of both buildings look a little stained, but were redone in 2013. There is no power or water to the garage yet, but there's an abundance of storage room/apartment potential above in this oversized building, plus all your vehicles will fit below (or turn it into a huge shop)! The log cabin was purchased as a "shell' in 2006, the garage built the same year, and although a lot of work was done, it was never quite completed. With a little polish, this could be quite a jewel! Gated Clearwater Creek is just north of Rutherfordton, the seat of Rutherford County in western North Carolina. You'll find grocery stores, healthcare, shopping, restaurants and just about anything you need is a ten to fifteen minute drive away. You've found a great location!
