Every time you come home, you’re entering your own sanctuary. Welcome to 115 Laurel Wood Ave., a place where the mountains are part of everyday life and good design never needs to call attention to itself. Surrounded by woods, this beautifully maintained home reflects a distinctly Appalachian sensibility: quality materials, practical design, natural beauty, and a strong connection to the landscape. There is nothing ostentatious here—just classic good looks and a feeling of calm that comes from living thoughtfully and simply. Throughout the day and across the seasons, the house fills with changing mountain light and remarkable color. Winter brings some of the area’s most beautiful and expansive long-range mountain views, while the home’s three heating systems and passive solar design, provide more than enough warmth and comfort without ever feeling closed in. Energy efficiency is another quiet strength. Photovoltaic solar panels, passive solar, and a tankless water heater contribute to low power bills. In warmer months, the home often needs little cooling, allowing you to take full advantage of the fresh mountain air and changing seasons. A 15-minute walk takes you to the Bailey Mountain Preserve trailhead, where miles of trails lead through the forest to expansive mountain views. The town’s greenway is just minutes away, while Hatley Pointe’s ski slopes and bike trails, area rafting outfitters, and the Appalachian Trail are all within easy reach. But Madison County offers more than scenery. It is a place with a strong sense of community and an enduring connection to music, craft, agriculture, and the land. Seasonal festivals bring local musicians, makers, and neighbors together. Mars Hill University adds an unexpected cultural depth, with visiting performers, speakers, and programs throughout the year. Independent shops and, a well-stocked grocery store, and quality medical services make day-to-day life easy without sacrificing the character of a small mountain community. And Asheville is close enough for an evening out, a concert, or the amenities of a larger city, yet far enough away that returning home feels like a change of pace. Here, mountain living is not a backdrop—it is a way of life. It’s quieter, more connected, and rooted in a place with a character all its own.

Some homes are built to fit neatly into a category. This one was built to be remembered. Perched atop a mountain in the heart of Western North Carolina, this remarkable three-bedroom log home is for the buyer who has always dreamed of owning a true mountain cabin only on a much grander scale. Rich wood, massive hand-hewn beams, stonework and a striking central fireplace give the home its authentic character, while walls of windows frame the surrounding mountains and bring the landscape into nearly every gathering space.

The expansive, multi-level floor plan offers an extraordinary amount of room for family and friends. The main level features generous living, dining and kitchen areas that flow together for entertaining, plus a pantry and access to an approximately 44-foot-long deck. Upstairs, the private bedroom spaces are complemented by a dedicated office, multiple bathrooms, a balcony and dramatic overlooks into the living areas below. The lower level feels like a destination of its own, with a large family room centered around a second fireplace, a game room, laundry, utility rooms, and additional flexible spaces for hobbies, recreation or spillover guests. Outside, covered porches, open decks, stone terraces and expansive acreage create a private mountaintop retreat surrounded by hardwood forest and long range mountain scenery. It feels wonderfully removed from the noise of everyday life, yet it is only approximately five minutes from Hatley Pointe Ski Resort, offering winter skiing, year-round fine dining at Smoke & Timber and a summertime downhill bike park scheduled to open in August 2026. Wolf Laurel’s acclaimed high elevation golf course is also nearby, along with Mars Hill, Burnsville and convenient access to Interstate 26. Asheville Regional Airport and Tri-Cities Airport near Johnson City, Tennessee, are each approximately 45 minutes away. This is not an ordinary cabin and it is not meant for an ordinary buyer.

For someone who has always imagined owning a substantial, authentic mountain retreat with room for everyone, this may be the place where that dream finally takes shape. *Additional Five Acres available.

Welcome to Little Bodhi Creek Farm Stay, an extraordinary 106-acre former tobacco farm in the heart of Madison County that serves as an eccentric, peaceful "hippie haven" rich with mature chestnuts, sassafras, native plant species, multiple creeks, waterfalls, natural springs, and impressive historic structures. Dense woods seamlessly run into rolling meadows, historic logging roads, and protected ridgetops, creating a landscape reminiscent of nearby Max Patch where wildlife like elk, deer, and bear roam freely. At the start of the acreage, an original four-bedroom farmhouse boasts gorgeous stonework and various significant updates for smart-modern mountain living, featuring a preserved yet remodeled interior with unpainted woodwork and stunning original hardwoods throughout both levels that presents an incredible opportunity for historical restoration. Expansive trails and roads lead you into every nook and cranny of the total acreage. Multiple pastures, flat landscapes, a stunning man-made pond, beautiful hand-built retaining walls, and altars offer the perfect backdrop for a gorgeous wedding venue, concert space, horse farm, multi-generational compound, or an expanded cabin retreat. Perfect for long-term investment holding. In addition to the main farmhouse, the property includes rich infrastructure and four historic, off-grid cabins—originally from Yancey County—that were carefully preserved and relocated here to previously offer a unique overnight glamping experience completely unplugged from utilities. Also, an earthen two-story greenhouse provides a studio or workshop. The barn has a septic connection, a bathhouse, and natural fed-spring water connection from a nearby waterfall.

For buyers seeking a full-scale project, this property offers the opportunity to create an entirely new vision in a classic mountain setting. The traditional 1.5-story farmhouse sits on approximately 100 acres in rural Spring Creek Valley, featuring open pastureland, wooded hillsides, creek frontage, and long-range mountain views. The outbuildings include a multi-car tandem garage/workshop, an equipment building, and a livestock barn. The property is located in the scenic Spring Creek Valley, surrounded by steep hillsides and a stream that ultimately flows into the French Broad River. Just down the road is the Spring Creek Community Center, a long-standing gathering point for local residents. The broader Hot Springs area is well known for Appalachian hiking, fishing, and outdoor recreation. The home and all outbuildings require restoration. This is an estate transaction, and the sellers have never occupied the home. Recorded rights-of-way exist for adjoining property owners. Due to the property's overall condition, it will not meet all financing requirements. All inspections are for buyer information only; the sellers will not perform or pay for any repairs, including those required by an appraisal. The property is being sold strictly “As Is,” “Where Is,” and “With All Faults.” The seller is a trust representing the estate of the owners who passed away and therefore makes no warranties or representations, express or implied, including any warranties of merchantability or fitness. No well permit was located. Because the county’s recorded construction year conflicts with the home’s observed materials, the true age of the dwelling is considered unknown. It is also unknown whether any buried fuel tanks exist on the property. A portion of the acreage across Hwy 209, as well as approximately one-third of the 25-acre pasture used for hay, is located within the designated floodway zone. Property showings are available by appointment only. Please contact your Realtor to schedule a time.
