For those who believe a home should have a story, this one has plenty to tell. Tucked into 1.59 private acres in Strawberry Hill, this extraordinary three-level retreat is a true labor of love, handcrafted with reclaimed materials, locally milled timber, mixed metals, and unexpected architectural details. Part treehouse, part mountain cabin, with a little steampunk and bohemian spirit thrown in, there is simply nothing cookie-cutter about it. The home overlooks Mill Creek Falls on Lake Glenville and feels beautifully tucked into the mountainside. White pine harvested from Strawberry Hill was locally milled for deck supports and beams, while reclaimed timber posts, cypress, Ipe decking, industrial fixtures, antique trim sourced from international travels, and even wood from a 1910 schooner give the home remarkable texture and character. Reclaimed windows, mixed metals, exposed steel and wood, a spiral staircase, and a clever pulley system for hanging plants continue the collected, handcrafted aesthetic. Inside, a wood-burning stove and radiant floor heat make this an inviting retreat in cooler weather. The two-bedroom layout includes a unique primary bedroom on the second floor with an additional loft accessed by ladder above the bedroom. Also, an additional bedroom and half bath off the kitchen. Outside, an open-air shower and a hot-and-cold soaking tub are built directly into the rock, creating a wonderfully unexpected place to unwind beneath the trees. The substantial construction includes 4x8 and 4x4 timbers and a structure pinned into the mountainside with Teflon-coated rebar. There is also room to expand for someone inspired to continue the vision. Strawberry Hill is less than 10 minutes from public access to Lake Glenville and offers community water, activity courts, deeded swimming access to the lake, boat storage, and plans for a future gated entrance. Private, creative, and unapologetically original, this is a true mountain hideaway for hikers, adventurers, artists, and anyone who would rather own something with soul than something ordinary. An AWD vehicle is required for driveway access.

Western North Carolina's elevation keeps summer temperatures 15 to 20 degrees cooler than neighboring states to the south.

Briar Patch is one of those neighborhoods that earns the word "surprising." Positioned directly above the WCU campus with year-round views of university grounds and the surrounding mountains, it manages to stay genuinely quiet, a point that appears unprompted in many of the Airbnb guest reviews spanning five years of short-term rentals at this address. Adjacent student housing complexes operate under enforceable noise restrictions, and the result is a residential street that functions entirely on its own terms. The home is a well-maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath ranch on a level, half-acre open lot. Hardwood floors, an updated kitchen, a formal living room, and a separate family room give the main living area a comfortable and flexible layout. The roof, HVAC, electrical system, plumbing, and primary appliances have all been upgraded and/or replaced and are in verified working condition. Public water service and an insulated exterior with vinyl and brick finish make this a move-in-ready property without a project list attached. The property's most distinctive asset is an attached 1-bedroom efficiency suite with its own private exterior entry and near-complete sound isolation from the main home. This suite has operated as a licensed short-term rental since 2021, generating $20,900 across 83 bookings in 2025 alone and earning Airbnb Superhost and Guest Favorite status with 153 reviews at a 4.9-star rating. Current figures reflect intentional owner-use blackout dates, meaning a new owner who converts those dates to bookings has additional upside already built in. The current owners note that in five years of continuous operation, the suite has never produced a noise or disturbance in the main living area. Buyers with no interest in short-term rentals will find the suite equally well-suited as a private primary ensuite, guest quarters with independent access, or a dedicated home office with a separate entrance. The property functions as a hub for western North Carolina. Waynesville, Cashiers, Cherokee, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park are within 30 minutes. Bryson City and Franklin are 40 minutes out. Asheville is approximately one hour away. The Tuckasegee River, popular for whitewater paddling, kayaking, and fly fishing, runs through the area. The yard includes a 24-by-24-foot concrete basketball court. A double attached carport with an integrated storage building complete the property

Read to the end of this paragraph! The Seller is offering a $2,500.00 concession at closing, see Seller's note below!! Much of the infrastructure is in place for the building of your new home on this beautiful and practical 3.13+/- acre lot in the Moses Creek/Caney Fork community in Cullowhee, NC. This quiet, secluded location is on a paved, state-maintained road within a short driving distance of Western Carolina University. A 2 BR septic system is installed (contact Jackson County Environmental Health for instruction of expansion, if needed to suit your plans). The former owner made good use of the spring fed water system; the pump system is housed in a sturdy building – a new pump will need to be installed. There is already a house site in place where a singlewide mobile home was formerly located. Bring your builder to explore siting options; there's plenty of room. A well-built driveway is accessed directly from the paved state-maintained Moses Creek Rd. Currently, there's a large dead tree laying across the driveway and another standing dead tree which the sellers decided to leave in place while selling the property for security and to allow the new owner to make their own design decisions about the entryway. From the Seller, “this property is a treasure and in the interest of protecting the natural beauty and the professional grade driveway and house site from damage, we decided to leave a fallen tree in place while the property is being marketed. At closing, we are prepared to make a concession of $2,500.00 to the Buyers for driveway entrance enhancement or other improvements the buyer may wish to make as they prepare to fulfill their ultimate vision of this property that we have loved so well.” Call your Buyer's Agent to see this Moses Creek property and enjoy the mountain view, the seasonal wildflowers, the diversity of hardwood forest and the serenity of birdsong and preserved habitat acreage home to local wildlife.
