The photo with the sunset view was taken from Lot 27 when the gated community opened in 2007. The trees in the foreground now have an additional 20 years of growth, so without also purchasing Lot 29 to the northwest (and doing a little clearing), the current view will not be the same. (Lot 29 is available.) This 1.19 acre parcel would be perfect for building your new home on a walk-out basement, but any foundation you choose would work - either way, you'll sit above many others. It features gently sloping land. Part of a ridge, Lot 27 (located in Phase One of Hearthstone Ridge) features gentle slopes that nearly level out at the highest points. Laced with deer trails and blanketed with pine straw and grapevine, you'll find a few hardwoods scattered in the mix of mostly Carolina pines. Along the northeast border is a farm (horses & cows), though the farm land here is steep and heavily wooded as it meets this residential lot, so it's unlikely that you'll ever see horses visiting along the property line. Rising up from the paved road and with its light underbrush, the land is easy enough to walk and explore. It will be an easy lot to build on, and provide a considerable amount of privacy. Featuring two gated entrances, Hearthstone Ridge is five miles north of Rutherfordton, the county seat. Here, you will find little in the way of commercialism and tourism, and an abundance of peace & quiet. The community requires a twelve hundred square foot minimum build.
