This is more than a single family property, with approximately 150 acres including nearly a MILE of deeded frontage on the French Broad River and approximately 12 acres of flat laying open fields, this is a dream property. Paint Rock Farm has been operated successfully as a wedding/event venue for years and you can build upon this foundation. Tucked away from view of the state maintained paved road, the land offers a multitude of options. Existing improvements include underground power and high speed internet along with a strong well. Eleven "glamping" cabins provide overnight accommodations in a rustic chic setting. Each is fully enclosed with sumptuous bedding, classic barn interior, metal roofs, views and an outdoor deck. Six of these sit on the bluff looking down on the river below. Awaken to the sound of the river while sipping coffee on the deck. The other five are on the edge of the flower strewn field. Try counting the trillions of stars in the night sky. A large updated barn with catering kitchen has provided seating for more than 200 at events with dance floor and sound system. A very high quality bathhouse provides guests restroom and bathing facilities with hot water via a passive solar boosted system. The "Caretaker's Cabin" is a comfy 1BR/1BA single family dwelling with kitchen and loft, ideal for an on site manager. Next to this you'll find a true "tiny home" of approximately 200 s.f. with sleeping loft, kitchen and bath. Other improvements include six RV sites with hookups. Tucked away just inside the woods are several prepared tent platforms with covered shelter and two lovely sites for weddings looking out over the mountains. The abundance of flat fields provides parking for well over 100 vehicles. Approximately 111 acres are in a conservation easement that allow for hiking, camping, trails and hunting, but otherwise restrict development in that portion meaning it will always be pristine woodlands full of wildlife as your backyard. In addition to the two existing 9 bedroom septic systems, permits are on hand for two more septic systems for two and three bedrooms, so come build your dream home. This property makes the perfect homestead/organic farm, event venue, down to earth RV park or family compound. ONLY financially qualified parties should inquire, and proof of funds are required prior to showing. Showing times may be limited due to ongoing rental activity, so plan ahead.

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. From the front porch, the ever-present view of Big Bald Mountain becomes part of daily life, changing with the light, weather and seasons. 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. It is a home for large gatherings, long weekends that turn into entire seasons, quiet mornings overlooking Big Bald and evenings spent around the fire. 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.
