The furnishings and décor are both sophisticated and comfortable, making the cottage easy to enjoy as a private getaway or continue as a vacation rental. Many furnishings are available.

5 Beds ⋅ 4 Baths ⋅ 4417094 MLS
Built in 1940 and thoughtfully remodeled and expanded , this 5 bedroom farmhouse sits on 5.45 acres in the North Carolina mountains, the kind of property equestrians and small farm owners look for and rarely find. A wraparound porch takes in long range mountain views from nearly every angle, overlooking the pasture below. Inside, the main level was clearly built for gathering. The kitchen, with its breakfast bar and center island, opens into connected dining and family rooms, making it easy to move between cooking, conversation, and company. Two fireplaces add warmth to the living spaces, and the primary bedroom is tucked away on this level with its own ensuite bath. Step outside from nearly any room and you land on a covered deck or porch, each one framing a different view of the pasture, barn, and hills beyond. Upstairs, the home splits into two separate wings, each with two bedrooms and a full bath. It is a layout that adapts easily, whether that means housing visiting family, giving teenagers their own space, or setting up a quiet wing for working from home. For the horse owner, the barn is where this property truly stands apart. The 4-stall barn has stall access from both the inside and outside, a dedicated feed and tack room to keep equipment organized and close at hand. A hayloft provides ample storage above, and drive up access makes loading and unloading hay simple and efficient. The fenced pasture surrounding the barn gives horses and other farm animals room to roam, with a stream running through the acreage that offers a natural water source. Together, the barn and grounds give this small farm real equestrian functionality, with plenty of room left over for chickens, goats, or homesteading of any kind. The detached 3-bay garage provides additional storage, with ceiling height and floor space for equipment, feed, or trailers, and additional gravel parking to accommodate trucks and horse trailers. For the equestrian or small farm buyer, this property offers a barn, pasture, water, and ample space to run a working farm, all within a "sprawling" mountain home

Rare legacy property bordering protected land. Opportunities like this are few and far between. Spanning approximately 61 acres of rolling pasture, mature hardwood forest and mountain landscape, this remarkable property offers an extraordinary combination of privacy, natural beauty and protected surroundings. One boundary adjoins Pisgah National Forest, while another borders Lake Logan, owned by the State of North Carolina, creating an exceptional setting where neighboring land is unlikely to change. McClure Creek meanders along the lower portion of the property, adding yet another layer of Appalachian charm. At the heart of the property is a rustic mountain cabin tucked among native stone, towering trees and rhododendron. Rich with character, the home embraces a timeless Appalachian aesthetic. The main level features a welcoming living room centered around a striking fieldstone wood-burning fireplace whose stonework extends into the dining area, creating a warm gathering space. Also on the main level are the kitchen, a bedroom and full bath. The lower level offers a second bedroom, full bath, laundry area and utility room. Enjoy the peaceful surroundings from the screened porch or open deck and take advantage of the attached two-car garage. A detached garage includes a thoughtfully finished apartment above with a bedroom, full bath, kitchen and living area, ideal for guests, extended family, a caretaker or rental possibilities. Also on the property is an old farmhouse. While it is no longer habitable, it offers potential as a restoration project for the right buyer or could serve as site for future improvements. Perhaps the property's most spectacular feature is its highest ridge. Though accessible only by hiking through the wooded terrain, drone photography reveals breathtaking long-range mountain vistas overlooking Lake Logan, a view that hints at the property's incredible potential. Whether you're dreaming of a private mountain estate, family retreat, working farm, recreational property or a long-term legacy investment, this one-of-a-kind offering provides an uncommon combination of acreage, water, protected borders and mountain beauty in the heart of Haywood County.
