This .57-ACRE CORNER LOT on Blanton Street offers a rare combination of in-town convenience and elbow room in the heart of Polk County, North Carolina. CITY WATER AND SEWER ARE AVAILABLE, making this an easy, cost-effective build compared to rural parcels that require a well and septic system.

The standout feature here is the WALKABLE LIFESTYLE. From Blanton Street you can stroll to historic downtown Columbus, the Polk County Courthouse square, Stearns Park, local coffee shops, restaurants, and the Columbus Farmers Market. The THERMAL BELT RAIL TRAIL runs nearby for walking, running, and biking, and the Polk County Recreation Complex offers ball fields and walking tracks. Columbus sits in the FOOTHILLS OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA with something to do in every direction. You are minutes from the TRYON INTERNATIONAL EQUESTRIAN CENTER, the Tryon Fine Arts Center, and FENCE (Foothills Equestrian Nature Center) with its miles of trails. Outdoor recreation abounds with PEARSON'S FALLS near Saluda, WHITEWATER PADDLING ON THE GREEN RIVER, hiking on White Oak Mountain, and fishing at Lake Lanier. Wine lovers can visit OVERMOUNTAIN VINEYARDS, Parker-Binns Vineyard, and Mountain Brook Vineyards, all within a short drive.
