Description

St. John's Church in Rutherfordton is a 'one of a kind' opportunity to own a piece of history. Historically & lovingly referred to as 'the little white church on Main Street' was built in 1846. The interior can be outfit as you wish, except no permanent wall to the 16' ceiling. The usage of the building has numerous residential & civic options as well as the 1/3-acre vacant lot next door. The pine wood plank floors are majestic & the huge multi-paned windows are stunning. The original pine pews remain...St. John's Church in Rutherfordton is a 'one of a kind' opportunity to own a piece of history. Historically & lovingly referred to as 'the little white church on Main Street' was built in 1846. The interior can be outfit as you wish, except no permanent wall to the 16' ceiling. The usage of the building has numerous residential & civic options as well as the 1/3-acre vacant lot next door. The pine wood plank floors are majestic & the huge multi-paned windows are stunning. The original pine pews remain or are to be given to the Historical Society. Below the Church is a quaint & private walk-out apartment that is turn-key. Great space for living below your business, or as a short-term rental. LR/Dining/Kit w/full bathroom is fully finished, while the BR has a low ceiling w/exposed rafters & brick/concrete walls that give it a rustic, historic feel. There is a great outdoor area too w/a patio, fire-pit and wooded view.
