This large, wooded parcel is quiet and private. The excellent price is due to the property being steeper than many people prefer, though it offers a good, buildable and private home site. A big advantage is you won’t have the yard or landscaping maintenance that keeps you working on your property, instead of enjoying it. There are potential winter views of the mountains, too! Covered with a mixture of hardwood trees which keeps the underbrush minimal, it’s fairly easy to explore this land. There’s a ridge that can be followed down to a small near-level area, which would be a great home site, with the ridge itself being the potential driveway. The developer of Clearwater Creek (Mountain Creek Land Company, Inc.) originally had a three-bed septic permit issued (2007) for this property from the county Health Department (Foothills Health District). Though septic permits only have a five-year life, it’s still good to know the land previously passed the ‘perc’ test! Being located in the foothills offers easy, practical living. Clearwater Creek is quiet, and only three miles north of the county seat of Rutherfordton… and with low dues of only 400/yr, the gated community offers security and peace of mind, convenience, and ease of access.
