950 Blanton St Columbus, NC 28722

Welcome to 950 Blanton Street — one of the best, rare values you’ll find!
At just $429,000, this home offers a rare combination of size, quality, and location that you simply won’t find anywhere else in Western North Carolina - great internet for work/home options, too.
Over 2,300± FINISHED square feet on the main levels and opportunity to almost "double" your heated living area by completing the walk-out basement, this property provides incredible flexibility for today and tomorrow!
At a price per square foot that is nearly impossible to match—right at/over $175/ft2 for finished space, and closer to $105/ft2 if you include the "unfinished" basement—you cannot build or buy this solid of a home, this close to town, for anywhere near this price!!!! Ever or anywhere nearby! That doesn't include the 2-car garage! Inside, a well-maintained 3BR, 2.5BA layout w/bonus spaces galore. 2 additional bonus room options - (one upstairs where the "old living room is/was", one in the basement, previously used as a bedroom off the bathroom) provide flexibility for a home office, hobby room, or guest quarters!
Also multiple living areas, including a cozy den, an open kitchen, plus a dining area, and a front living room with a fireplace (*that was the one previously used as an office).
HARDWOOD floors, "FRESH" paint, and newer, highest-quality carpets in the bedrooms/hall give the home a bright, welcoming feel, while thoughtful updates over the years ensure MOVE-IN-READY peace of mind! The primary living areas are warm & inviting + the basement is already partially "finished" WITH plumbing, framing, even a full bath in place(*Not considered HLA at this moment per guidelines.).
Minimal effort, you could create multi-GENERATIONAL living quarters, a private GUEST suite, a RENTAL unit for additional INCOME options, or simply MORE space for family & friends. The opportunities are endless—rarely do you find a home that offers so much flexibility and untapped potential at this price point!! The property also features an oversized garage (approx. +/-490 sq ft), a metal outbuilding for additional storage or workshop space(*no value given for comps, can be removed if buyer desires, sits on a nice concrete pad), and a private backyard with room to enjoy mountain sunsets and long range winter views.
City water(*Not in city limits), natural gas water heater, and a radon-free, smoke-free, pet-free history ALL add to the home’s long-term APPEAL. Location is everything, and this home delivers ~ only minutes from local dining, parks, fitness centers, and community amenities and pool, you’re also less than 5 minutes to I-26/74 for quick access to major destinations.
Nestled perfectly between Asheville, Greenville, Hendersonville, Tryon, Lake Lure, Spartanburg, and Charlotte or even a quick trip to TN for theme parks or a day of joyriding to some outlets!
You’re right in the middle of some of the region’s best arts, culture, outdoor recreation, equestrian events, wineries, and more! It’s a rare opportunity to enjoy small-town living while being connected to everything Western NC and Upstate SC + have to offer! Whether you’re looking for a forever home, an investment with income potential, or simply a property that offers more space than you ever imagined possible, and for this price, 950 Blanton Street is the one.
