Property Description
Private estate offering an excellent blend of grassy meadows teeming with wildlife and wooded privacy accented by long range mountain vistas only minutes outside of Asheville city limits. Whether envisioned as a gentleman's farm, equestrian retreat, private homestead, multigenerational family compound, or future development opportunity, the land provides a rare canvas with remarkable flexibility. Fields of native range grasses are perfect for gardening, orchards, or the pasturing of livestock. The days here are sunny, the nighttime sky clear, and the mountain air refreshing. Zoning allows residential construction of the owner's choosing, livestock privileges, camping, and RV use. The meticulously maintained home features three bedrooms and two full baths, with comfortable living spaces that frame the peaceful surroundings. A covered back deck welcomes quiet mornings, while the covered front porch is placed for taking in the dramatic long-range mountain views and unforgettable sunsets. The walkout basement offers a partially finished den, generous storage, hobby space, and a workshop area with a garage door for easy exterior access. A short drive to Asheville, Weaverville, and Leicester, with convenient access to schools, shopping, and everyday amenities. Pre-inspected and offered under tax value, this is an exceptional opportunity to create your vision in a beautiful Western North Carolina setting. Bring your ideas, your animals, your family, your business plan, or your dream of a quieter life.
