Rare opportunity to own 8.4 acres of unrestricted mountain property surrounded by the natural beauty of Western North Carolina. Tucked along a quiet country road, this private retreat offers open lawn areas, mature hardwoods, native landscaping, seasonal mountain views, and a crystal-clear bold mountain stream flowing year-round through the property. Enjoy the relaxing sound of rushing water from much of the land while experiencing the privacy and peaceful mountain setting that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. The stream also offers the opportunity to catch native brown trout right on your own property.
Conveniently located only approximately 14 miles or about a 23-minute drive to Historic Downtown Brevard, the property offers easy access to one of Western North Carolina’s most sought-after mountain towns known for its vibrant arts scene, locally owned restaurants, breweries, music venues, shopping, and year-round outdoor recreation. Brevard is often called the “Land of Waterfalls” and serves as the gateway to Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Recreational Forest, offering world-class hiking, waterfalls, fly fishing, and mountain biking opportunities. Enjoy additional hiking and mountain biking nearby at beautiful Gorges State Park. The property is also conveniently located approximately 11 minutes to downtown Rosman and about a 23-minute drive to Pickens.
With multiple potential build sites throughout the acreage, this property offers outstanding flexibility for a private estate, family compound, vacation rentals, mini-farm, or mountain getaway. There is also a potential pond site and possible small hydro-electric generation from the flowing creek. NO RESTRICTIONS. Livestock including horses, cows, goats, and chickens are allowed, making this a rare opportunity for buyers seeking freedom and versatility. Campers, motorhomes, and RVs are also permitted, creating endless possibilities for recreational use, temporary living, or future development. High-speed internet is reportedly available through Comporium, and Haywood Electric is the electric provider, allowing modern conveniences while still enjoying country living.
The existing mountain cottage has rustic character and a peaceful setting but is being sold AS-IS and will require significant improvements. Buyers may choose to renovate the existing structure, remove it entirely and build new, or simply use the property as a private RV or camper retreat while planning future development. The existing well could potentially be reused, though buyers should evaluate the septic system and utilities for future suitability. An inspection report is available to serious buyers and indicates substantial work is needed. Seller believes the primary value is in the land, stream, unrestricted use, and overall setting, and the existing home may contribute little or no additional value.
A standout feature is the large rustic workshop/storage building offering excellent dry storage space with power already in place. Ideal for tools, equipment, hobbies, recreational gear, workshop use, or additional storage. Below the main workshop area is an additional enclosed storage area perfect for valuables, tools, and outdoor equipment. An additional utility/storage building near the home adds even more functional space and mountain charm.
Outside, the property features usable lawn and pasture areas ideal for gardening, recreation, entertaining, or animals, all surrounded by towering trees and mountain scenery. Rarely do properties offer this combination of unrestricted use, multiple homesite opportunities, year-round water, native brown trout stream frontage, privacy, usable land, existing infrastructure, and mountain charm all in one setting.
Recent appraisal reportedly came in approximately $40,000 above the current list price, creating an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking value, flexibility, and exceptional mountain acreage. High Speed Internet via Comporium available.
