Private Mountaintop Estate | 5 Bedrooms | ±11.39 Acres | Solar Uninterrupted views of Marion from one of the highest homesites in the area. High above downtown, this two-story estate sits on approximately 11.39 acres of mountaintop land, reached by a paved private drive. The setting is quiet and private by elevation itself. The property borders Mount Ida Wilderness Park — 36 acres of city preserve with a one-mile trail to overlooks of Short Off Mountain and the town below. Downtown Marion is about three-tenths of a mile away. You live above it. You easily go down to it. Solar panels crown the home — a quieter kind of luxury: lower operating cost, a lighter footprint, and the comfort of generating power on your own roof while the views do the rest. The main level is built for living well. A fully appointed kitchen with breakfast nook. Formal dining. A great room wrapped in glass, fireplace at the center, views running front to back. The primary suite is its own retreat: fireplace, private bath with jetted tub, and a screened covered deck. The great room opens to a broad entertaining deck above Marion. Upstairs: four bedrooms and two full baths. One suite is large enough to serve as a second primary, with its own bath, walk-in closet, and a private balcony. This is a rare combination in McDowell County — acreage, long views, trail access, solar, and Main Street close enough for dinner, the Peavine, and the farmers market. A private mountaintop estate that still belongs to town. If you want room, elevation, and a home that works as beautifully as it looks, this property deserves a private showing.

WANTED: A Dream Builder with Vision and Grit This one is for the dreamers, the doers, and the ones who can see potential where others just see overgrowth. Sitting on 103 acres, this property is full of character and waiting for someone ready to bring it back to life. Once home to a cozy farmhouse, you will still find two original stone fireplaces standing proud as a nod to what once was. There is a creek that winds through in several spots, a few natural caves tucked away, and plenty of open areas just waiting to be cleared for a homesite, garden, or maybe a few four-legged friends. The old barn still stands, weathered but strong, and the former home site has power access, a well, and a septic system. The condition of those is unknown, but the potential is there. The property is bordered by conservation land at the top and along one side, giving you peace, privacy, and room to roam. You will see the original photos marked to show where everything once was, so you can imagine how easily, with a bush hog and a little vision, this land could be transformed back to its well-manicured glory. Possible Uses Include: A private homestead or family retreat A small farm or hobby ranch A hunting or recreational getaway An off-grid or eco-friendly community project A campground or glamping site with creekside charm If you are ready to roll up your sleeves and build something special, this land is ready to meet its match. Bring your boots, your imagination, and your vision. The dream is waiting.

Your Own Slice of Carolina Magic Step into a place where nature does all the talking. Tucked away in the heart of the mountains, this rare piece of land is unlike anything else on the market. With a sparkling waterfall cascading through the property and a U-shaped river that flows in and out, it feels like your very own enchanted kingdom. In the middle, you’ll find a dreamy stretch of land perfect for stargazing, camping, or maybe one day building your forever escape on the higher ridges, safe from potential flooding and with views worth every step. On the Land A rustic off-grid camping cabin rests quietly among the trees. It was built for weekends, not forever, complete with an old outhouse but it sets the scene for wilderness adventures. The cabin itself holds no value in this sale, but it whispers of the stories already lived here. An aged pump house once served RV hookups. It’s been years since it worked, and it will need repair, but it still hints at possibility. A septic tank is in place, with a report pending. Powerlines run along the side of the front of the property, but don’t let that discourage you. Once you’re on the land, you can’t even see them. The well situation is uncertain given the rocky ground beneath, another reason this land favors those with vision and imagination. Why You’ll Love It This is land for dreamers, explorers, and anyone who knows that places of peace are priceless. Whether you envision a hideaway in the high spots, weekends by the river, or just want to say you own land where waterfalls sing you’ll find that here. Important Note Please remember: showings are by appointment with a real estate agent only. Do not go chasing waterfalls on your own! Trespassing is not permitted, and you must be accompanied to enter. The Bottom Line With water, nature, and space to build your dreams, this property is as magical as it is rare. Bring your boots, bring your vision, and let your imagination flow like the river that runs through it.

Oh, you found me. Go ahead, take your time. I’m more than a house. I’m a story, written one quiet morning and golden evening at a time. Step through the front door and feel it. The calm. The space that welcomes you without a word. Sunlight spills across hardwood floors and softens against warm neutral walls. Every room has its own heartbeat, steady and sure. Three bedrooms wait just down the hall, each with its own personality. The main suite feels like exhaling after a long day, with generous space for your favorite chair, a window that greets the sunrise, and a private bath that glows with soft light and clean lines. The second and third bedrooms are perfect reflections of comfort and versatility. They hold stories of movie nights, quiet reading hours, or that guest who always overstays because it feels too good to leave. Both bathrooms are beautifully updated, designed for real life but dressed for beauty. Modern fixtures, quality finishes, and thoughtful touches turn everyday routines into moments that feel intentional. And then there’s the extra room. It’s the wildcard, ready to become whatever your life needs next. Maybe it’s your creative studio where ideas spill out faster than coffee. Maybe it’s a yoga space with sunlight stretching across the mat. Or maybe it’s simply a quiet retreat where you close the door, breathe, and just exist. The kitchen is bright and open, connected effortlessly to the dining and living areas. Every inch was designed for gathering. There’s space to cook, to laugh, to watch someone dance barefoot while dinner sizzles. From the first cup of coffee to midnight snacks, this is the kind of kitchen that becomes the center of everything. Step outside, and the story shifts from cozy to cinematic. A brand-new roof rises above you, strong and steady, while the new deck stretches wide beneath your feet. It’s the perfect blend of open air and comfort. Picture golden evenings with string lights, the smell of something grilled, the hum of conversation that rolls into laughter. The backyard feels private, peaceful, and open enough to dream bigger. Garden beds, a fire pit, maybe a hammock under the trees. You can see it already, can’t you? And just beyond, a powered garage and workshop stand ready. This is where imagination meets muscle. It’s neat, functional, and waiting for your next big idea. Tools, hobbies, projects, all the things that build a life well-lived find their place here. Every inch of me has been cared for and loved. I’m not flashy. I’m real. I’m warm, inviting, and built to hold the kind of life that makes memories stick. If you’ve been looking for a home that has character, strength, and heart, you’ve found it. This is the one that stays with you long after you’ve closed the app and turned off the lights. So take another look. Let it sink in. Because something tells me, we might just belong together.
