Hardwoods are predominant on this large parcel in the gated community, with several old beech trees making an enduring (and endearing) statement. Of course it'll be your option, but you might choose to build half way down the first slope using a circular driveway, keeping things simple and providing easy access. It's also likely that you'll only have one step into your home! Building down a bit further, the old road bed could serve as the walking out part of a walk-out basement. It might be nice to cut a set of steps into the hill (similar to what you find at a state park), with a landing or two, giving easier access to the level land and stream below in the lower portion of this beautiful property. Imagine the view from your deck! And the near-level portion below could offer a lovely enhancement to your view from above - it could be a massive garden, a park or play space! Being located in the foothills offers easy, practical living - this land is just a ten-minute drive into town. Clearwater Creek is quiet, three miles north of the county seat of Rutherfordton, and features low annual dues.

With 475' of water frontage on this corner lot, a considerable amount of level land sits adjacent to the year 'round stream - you'll find hardwoods like river birch, poplar & beech. As the terrain gently rises, tall pines mixed with cedars and a few hardwoods are present. The land has a gentle, overall grade, though small undulations make it visually interesting. The property is great for one-level living, yet offers just enough slope to support a walk-out basement foundation as well. It'll be a gentle, easy walk to enjoy the water, and with deer trails and light undergrowth, you'll find it charming as you explore! Located in the foothills, you'll find easy, practical living - this property is less than a ten minute drive into town.

When driving through the Clearwater Creek neighborhood, you feel like you are in a wilderness within a development. It is close to the Town of Rutherfordton and the schools, giving you the feeling of nature. Watch out for the deer crossing the roads as you drive in. They will probably stare and check you out.

This residential lot is found near the end of a cul-de-sac road, on the southwest corner of gated Clearwater Creek. It features mostly sloping land with some of it near-level, with easy access and will be an easy lot to build on. Adorned with hardwoods, the rolling terrain offers multiple building options. Take advantage of the natural undulations and create a beautifully landscaped home. Build with a walk-out basement foundation and enjoy a view of the small stream, or keep it simple and build up top on the near-level part, perfect for a one-level home. You'll also find deer trails laced throughout the property. An advantage of land covered with hardwoods is the shade they offer in summer, and the sunlight they offer in the winter months. Plus gorgeous shades of green in the spring, beautiful reds, oranges and yellows in the fall.

This lot has two distinctive levels, with the higher part being a rather large, easy-to-build area, then it slopes down leading to the potential for a park-like setting along the small stream. From the road, you'd think this parcel is mostly pines, but it's covered in hardwoods, with a stream along the E border. Much of this land is near level giving you several home site choices. E-Z build for a one level home, or use the slope toward the stream to build with a basement. Along the stream, the land is near-level offering a peaceful respite. Create a park where you enjoy the soothing sounds of the water. The wooded mixture of evergreens and hardwoods in this lot create a sense of privacy and serenity, and it's located on a small, less-used street. You'll notice the land undulates somewhat, but it's still an easy walk - maybe a bit overgrown, but thanks to the deer trails, it's not difficult to navigate.

This parcel is wooded, with plenty of usable, near level land - bit overgrown, but with a glance at the photo above, you can tell it offers mountain views. Located at the end of the cul-de-sac, the property has a gentle slope following the slope of the road, eventually ending down by a small stream, all without being too steep to enjoy both! Laying well above the paved road, any home site taking advantage of the view will feature a gentle rise in its driveway. Most of the Clearwater Creek community is gated, but this parcel sits within Phase One, the un-gated section, inside the town limits of Rutherfordton.

Talia Drive Unit #4, Rutherfordton

3897536 MLS ⋅ ACTIVE Status
This lot rolls with undulations and an overall gentle slope - with the most gentle area almost midpoint between the road frontage (west border) and the stream (east), offering beauty and privacy plus an easy build. A generous parcel, it's convenient to the north gate of the community, yet it's on a little-used road. Features a great deal of privacy while being tucked under a canopy of mostly hardwoods. (Shade all summer and sunlight in the winter.) The stream flows all year, and while it gets a bit steeper along the water, it's still a lovely view, and not all that challenging to approach. The deer trails offer additional charm to this lovely property. While it's a bit dense along the road frontage, there's a minimum of undergrowth - you'll find it easy to walk on and explore.
