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. Downtown at your door.

Private Mountaintop Estate | 5 Bedrooms | ±11.39 Acres | Solar Uninterrupted views of Marion from one of the highest homesites in the area. High above downtown, this two-story estate sits on approximately 11.39 acres of mountaintop land, reached by a paved private drive. The setting is quiet and private by elevation itself. The property borders Mount Ida Wilderness Park — 36 acres of city preserve with a one-mile trail to overlooks of Short Off Mountain and the town below. Downtown Marion is about three-tenths of a mile away. You live above it. You easily go down to it. Solar panels crown the home — a quieter kind of luxury: lower operating cost, a lighter footprint, and the comfort of generating power on your own roof while the views do the rest. The main level is built for living well. A fully appointed kitchen with breakfast nook. Formal dining. A great room wrapped in glass, fireplace at the center, views running front to back. The primary suite is its own retreat: fireplace, private bath with jetted tub, and a screened covered deck. The great room opens to a broad entertaining deck above Marion. Upstairs: four bedrooms and two full baths. One suite is large enough to serve as a second primary, with its own bath, walk-in closet, and a private balcony. This is a rare combination in McDowell County — acreage, long views, trail access, solar, and Main Street close enough for dinner, the Peavine, and the farmers market. A private mountaintop estate that still belongs to town. If you want room, elevation, and a home that works as beautifully as it looks, this property deserves a private showing.
