Looking for a wooded retreat near Rutherfordton with easy access to town or the interstate? Check out this cozy home w/guest cottage in Holly Forest on a private 4+ acre lot. Although the house is only 2 bed/2 bath on the main level, you've got an additional room in the finished basement w/1/2 bath - perfect for an office or craft room - PLUS the adjacent full suite guest apartment. The kitchen in the main house has tons of cabinet storage, an island w/cooktop, solid surface counters, and the snug breakfast nook looking out over the back yard. Gorgeous hardwood floors, archways, and vaulted ceiling add a casual elegance to the open living & dining rooms. The Master Suite was designed to comfortably fit a king bed, dual walk-in closets, and a desk area and the screened back porch feels more like an extension of the indoors. Note: TV armoire in LR can convey with the property.
