A stone fireplace with gas logs anchors the living room, and there's a second fireplace in one of the bedrooms. The owner added a laundry closet in one bedroom for main-level convenience, and hookups remain in the basement. Major systems are done: roof replaced in 2025, HVAC in 2018, electrical in 2017, water heater in 2026, plumbing updated to PVC, and thermal-pane windows. A natural gas generator conveys, along with the owned propane tank that fuels the gas logs; natural gas is available at the property for a buyer who prefers to convert. Spectrum internet service is in place. The full basement adds roughly 1,800 square feet of workshop and storage beneath the home — with a woodstove and a fireplace to take the chill off. Interior stairs plus walk-out and walk-up access make it easy to move equipment in and out. Outside, a one-car attached carport opens onto a covered side porch, while a detached tandem carport and detached garage/workshop give you room for vehicles, equipment, and projects. Plus an additional outbuilding. Public water, septic system, heat pump with central air, insulated windows, walk-in attic with fixed stairs, and built-in features throughout. No HOA, no restrictions. Minutes from North Cove School and a short drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Caverns, Little Switzerland, and the hiking, fishing, and waterfalls of the western North Carolina mountains.

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.
