Great opportunity inside City limits for a multitude of possibilities. This property was historically part of the Cross Cotton Mill properties during the "hay-day" of the textile industry of NC. The surrounding community was housing owned by the Mill for their employees and this property was the Park they provided for the workers and their families. The recreation area had a baseball field, a tennis court and pool for the families of Cross Mill. Bring life back to a once vibrant area that is nostalgic for so many. New construction is taking place as well as many homes being renovated. Re-create the former life with amenities for a multi-family complex or small single-family community or construct warehousing, storage, or other commercial or industrial endeavors. Neighboring properties were once Drexel Heritage and Broyhill Furniture. The Drexel site has been envisioned by the City as Drexel Village at Marion Station; a mixed-use development to be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike if the proposed passenger train service returns to western NC to carry passengers along the Norfolk Southern rail from Salisbury to Asheville. Rezoning IS a possibility.

Unlocking true mountain value requires looking past previous listing history. This property offers an intentional financial entry point designed to offset site development costs. A major strategic advantage of this parcel is its subdividable potential per POA covenants! The land offers the buyer post-closing flexibility to split the property into separate 5 acre and 10 acre tracts. This option allows an owner to build a primary residence on the upper section while holding or liquidating the remaining acreage to offset development capital. The topography features a natural build bench near the upper northwest ridge off the cul-de-sac around the 1,600 foot elevation mark, ideal for capturing long range views while controlling site prep expense. The steady slope moving down to the 1,400 foot level along the private stream provides natural gravity fed drainage, establishing a straightforward layout for traditional septic placement. To subdivide Lot 46 (15.61 acres) into a 5+ acre upper parcel and a 10+ acre lower parcel based strictly on its 20-foot elevation profile and boundary layout, execute the following technical plan: The Upper 5.1+ Acre Parcel (The Ridge Bench): Draw the new boundary line horizontally across the northern section of the parcel, roughly following the 1,540-foot contour line. This captures the highest elevation area (1,600 feet down to 1,540 feet) immediately adjacent to the South View Court cul-de-sac. It includes the widest contour line spacing, preserving the primary natural build bench for low-grade foundation construction and preserving long-range mountain views. The Lower 10.5+ Acre Parcel (The Stream Corridor): The remaining acreage spans from the 1,540-foot contour line down to the 1,400-foot line at the eastern/southeastern boundary. This tract contains the private stream corridor and dense woodland, creating a secluded estate site. Buyer to verify with support from a survey. Short-term rentals are allowed, making this property ideal for a private mountain home, vacation retreat, or income-producing cabin. Located in a gated community 5 minutes from I-40 and under 30 minutes to Lake James, this property combines seclusion with actionable logistics. Complete Property Owners Association covenants and contour maps available upon request and included in attachments.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Mountain Estate Bordering Pisgah National Forest Privacy. History. Adventure. Possibilities. This is the kind of property that rarely becomes available. Ride out your own gate. This 14-acre equestrian estate borders Pisgah National Forest on three sides, opening directly onto thousands of acres of protected trail. No trailer, no trailhead, no hauling out. Paxton Creek runs year-round through the property, audible from the screened porch. One hour from Tryon International Equestrian Center. The facility is built to work. A three-stall barn with grain and tack room and full hay loft with overhang. A riding arena for lunging, training, schooling or use as a dry lot. Three fenced and cross-fenced pastures with a run-in shelter, watered by a natural freshwater spring capable of serving the barn. A 30' x 30' workshop with side overhang handles equipment, hay or a second rig, with RV parking on a 50-amp hookup and a generator hookup for the property. The log residence is engineered for permanence: a 10-foot Superior Walls foundation, a heated and cooled semi-finished basement for tack, training or recreation space, a new 3-ton heat pump (2025) and a Hot Blast wood furnace ducted throughout. Wide porches, mountain and water views, and the quiet of a property at the end of a private road. Flexible by design. Keep it as a private equestrian estate. Run it as a working homestead — pastures, chicken coop, historic blacksmith shop and spring already in place. Or build: a prepared site along the historic Wagon Trail commands 360-degree views of Old Fort Mountain and the ranges beyond. Underground utilities, well, septic, no HOA, publicly maintained road access.
