About this home

68 Circle Drive offers a unique opportunity to own a newly completed one-bedroom residence built within a substantially improved commercial property in the desirable Pleasant Gardens community of Marion, North Carolina.

Completed in 2026, the approximately 490-square-foot executive suite features a private entrance, full kitchen with custom cabinetry and granite countertops, dining and living area with an open floor plan, full bathroom with handicap-width door openings, dedicated bedroom, washer and dryer, all-new appliances, and beautiful mountain views.

This versatile space is ideal for an owner-occupant seeking a live/work environment, business owner needing on-site accommodations, employee or manager housing, or an investor seeking a flexible mixed-use opportunity.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE: This residence is located within a larger commercial warehouse and flex-industrial property containing approximately 9,029 square feet of warehouse, office, and commercial space. The residential suite is not a standalone home and is being offered as part of the commercial property located at 68 Circle Drive. Buyers should review Commercial MLS #4388554 for complete details regarding the overall property, commercial improvements, permitted uses, and site information.

The commercial portion of the property includes warehouse, office, and flex space with multiple overhead doors, loading docks, 3-phase power, separate utility services, and extensive recent improvements including new roofing systems, exterior updates, and modernized infrastructure.

Situated on approximately 0.50 acres with city water and convenient access to US Highway 70 and Interstate 40, the property offers quick access to Marion, Morganton, Asheville, and surrounding Western North Carolina markets.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a modern residential living space combined with an established commercial property in one of McDowell County's most desirable growth corridors. Buyers are encouraged to review Commercial MLS #4388554 and verify all intended residential and commercial uses with McDowell County Planning.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. Christy can introduce you to lenders she trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
