A gated brick estate just off Main Street — private grounds, a heated saltwater pool, and downtown Marion at the end of the block. This 1933 1.5-story brick home sits behind the gate on Rutherford Road, a short stroll from the shops, dining, breweries, and events of historic downtown Marion. Come home to quiet. Walk out for coffee, dinner, or Friday night on Main. The main floor lives like a private wing. The primary suite and ensuite are on this level, with a dedicated home office that looks over the fenced front lawn and Rutherford Road — work with the light, not the commute. A custom kitchen with bar and breakfast nook is the everyday gathering spot. Formal living with fireplace and a separate dining room keep the house dressed for company. The sunroom, with a half bath, faces the pool: morning coffee, late swim, all in one room. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath give guests and family their own floor. The full basement is the quiet luxury of a house this age — storage, hobbies, projects, all under the same roof. Outside is the showpiece. A newer saltwater pool with gas heater. Gated grounds. An oversized detached garage and workshop. Brick, fence, gate, water — the kind of in-town compound that rarely comes up in Marion. Four bedrooms. Two full baths and a half. Pool. Workshop.

Briar Patch is one of those neighborhoods that earns the word "surprising." Positioned directly above the WCU campus with year-round views of university grounds and the surrounding mountains, it manages to stay genuinely quiet, a point that appears unprompted in many of the Airbnb guest reviews spanning five years of short-term rentals at this address. Adjacent student housing complexes operate under enforceable noise restrictions, and the result is a residential street that functions entirely on its own terms. The home is a well-maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath ranch on a level, half-acre open lot. Hardwood floors, an updated kitchen, a formal living room, and a separate family room give the main living area a comfortable and flexible layout. The roof, HVAC, electrical system, plumbing, and primary appliances have all been upgraded and/or replaced and are in verified working condition. Public water service and an insulated exterior with vinyl and brick finish make this a move-in-ready property without a project list attached. The property's most distinctive asset is an attached 1-bedroom efficiency suite with its own private exterior entry and near-complete sound isolation from the main home. This suite has operated as a licensed short-term rental since 2021, generating $20,900 across 83 bookings in 2025 alone and earning Airbnb Superhost and Guest Favorite status with 153 reviews at a 4.9-star rating. Current figures reflect intentional owner-use blackout dates, meaning a new owner who converts those dates to bookings has additional upside already built in. The current owners note that in five years of continuous operation, the suite has never produced a noise or disturbance in the main living area. Buyers with no interest in short-term rentals will find the suite equally well-suited as a private primary ensuite, guest quarters with independent access, or a dedicated home office with a separate entrance. The property functions as a hub for western North Carolina. Waynesville, Cashiers, Cherokee, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park are within 30 minutes. Bryson City and Franklin are 40 minutes out. Asheville is approximately one hour away. The Tuckasegee River, popular for whitewater paddling, kayaking, and fly fishing, runs through the area. The yard includes a 24-by-24-foot concrete basketball court. A double attached carport with an integrated storage building complete the property

$10,000 in Seller Paid Closing Costs - Imagine starting your mornings with coffee on the screened front porch as the countryside slowly wakes up around you. Afternoons are spent watching pets play freely inside the fully fenced backyard, working in the garden or simply taking in the peaceful pasture views. As the sun sets, there is room to gather, breathe and enjoy the kind of quiet that is becoming harder to find—all on 2.3 private acres with no HOA telling you how to use your property. Inside, the open kitchen becomes the heart of everyday life. Granite countertops, a center island and pantry make everything from quick weekday breakfasts to holiday gatherings feel effortless, while the seamless connection to the bright, spacious great room keeps everyone together. At the end of the day, retreat to a primary suite designed for relaxation. Unwind in the beautiful claw foot soaking tub, refresh in the tiled walk in shower and enjoy a massive walk in closet with room for far more than just the essentials. Every bathroom in the home has been fully remodeled, creating stylish, updated spaces for both family and guests. Upstairs, an incredible finished bonus and recreation area gives you the freedom to create whatever your life needs. Picture movie nights on one side, a playroom or game area on another and still enough room for a home gym, office or hobby space. It is the kind of flexibility that allows the home to grow and change right along with you. The massive garage provides plenty of room for large trucks or SUVs, along with additional space for tools, outdoor equipment and weekend projects. Thoughtful improvements including a new roof in 2023, new water heater in 2025, Andersen windows and updated flooring mean you can spend less time worrying about projects and more time enjoying where you live. Here, life feels quieter and offers a whole lot more room, yet Monroe, Wingate University and the Monroe Expressway are only minutes away. Enjoy peaceful country nights without giving up an easy connection to Charlotte. This is not simply a place to live it is a place to slow down, spread out and build the life you have been imagining.
