Welcome to the "Hill House" a Rutherfordton property with a distinctive character, generous space, and a layout that invites you to create something truly your own. Known in the community as the Hill House, this substantial brick home offers just under 3,500 sq ft of finished living space, plus an additional 325 sq ft enclosed porch that is not included in the heated square footage. You will find 2317 sq ft on the main level, along with 1172 sq ft of finished basement living and an additional 1211 sq ft of unfinished area. More than just a home, this is an opportunity to take a unique property and transform it into a one-of-a-kind personal retreat.
The main level features the kitchen with ample cabinet and counter space, breakfast area, dining room, and an oversized living room with a brick fireplace and built-ins. A room with cabinetry just off the foyer and across from the kitchen offers excellent potential for a walk-in pantry, mudroom, or additional storage. The primary bedroom and second bedroom feature a unique arrangement with two en-suite bathrooms sharing a walk-in shower. A third bedroom has the perfect ability to serve as a home office, with a separate laundry room offering additional cabinetry and storage.
The full walk-out basement includes two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a family room, with approximately half of the basement finished and plenty of room to expand. With its separate access and existing layout, the lower level offers exciting potential for a private guest suite or additional living quarters.
Recent improvements include two Trane heat pumps and air handlers installed in 2021, a tankless water heater installed in 2022, and an owned propane tank for the gas fireplace logs. Outside, enjoy the covered front porch, deck, vinyl-fenced area ideal for play or pets, expanded driveway, two-car garage with large storage room, and a 20x12 storage building with additional 10x12 lean-to storage.
Located conveniently near Rutherford Regional Hospital, Downtown Rutherfordton, recreation, walking trails, and Crestview Park. This is a home with character, space, and endless possibilities to customize, and ready for your personal vision.
