Tucked into the mountains of Mars Hill near the Madison/Yancey County line, nearly 59 acres that have remained in the same family since the 1800s are being offered for sale for the first time. For the first time in generations, this Madison County mountain property is ready for its next chapter. This is the kind of land buyers search for and rarely find all in one tract. Start at the bottom with open pasture, a beautiful old barn, creek, and a spring. Remnants of the property’s long history are still here, including a primitive cabin and old dwelling. They are being conveyed as-is, with no value attributed and no representation as to condition or suitability for occupancy, but they offer a glimpse into the generations who called this mountain home. Then follow the mountain upward through mature woods, along an existing rough road and trail system, where the elevation climbs, the privacy deepens, and long-range mountain views begin to open up near the top. For the buyer with vision, the possibilities are wide open: create a private mountain estate, establish a homestead, explore the potential for a family compound, hunt, hike, ride ATVs, keep the pasture open, or simply own a substantial piece of Western North Carolina and preserve it for the next generation. Twin Oaks Road is paved nearly to the property. From there, the interior road climbs, and it is currently best suited for ATV or appropriate four-wheel-drive access. No septic or electrical service is currently installed. Buyers should independently verify septic suitability, utilities, access, structural condition, and suitability of the property for their intended use. There are plenty of places to buy acreage. There are far fewer places where you get pasture, water, a barn, history, privacy, mountain views, and nearly 59 acres to make entirely your own. Call me today to schedule a showing!

Welcome to Little Bodhi Creek Farm Stay, an extraordinary 106-acre former tobacco farm in the heart of Madison County that serves as an eccentric, peaceful "hippie haven" rich with mature chestnuts, sassafras, native plant species, multiple creeks, waterfalls, natural springs, and impressive historic structures. Dense woods seamlessly run into rolling meadows, historic logging roads, and protected ridgetops, creating a landscape reminiscent of nearby Max Patch where wildlife like elk, deer, and bear roam freely. At the start of the acreage, an original four-bedroom farmhouse boasts gorgeous stonework and various significant updates for smart-modern mountain living, featuring a preserved yet remodeled interior with unpainted woodwork and stunning original hardwoods throughout both levels that presents an incredible opportunity for historical restoration. Expansive trails and roads lead you into every nook and cranny of the total acreage. Multiple pastures, flat landscapes, a stunning man-made pond, beautiful hand-built retaining walls, and altars offer the perfect backdrop for a gorgeous wedding venue, concert space, horse farm, multi-generational compound, or an expanded cabin retreat. Perfect for long-term investment holding. In addition to the main farmhouse, the property includes rich infrastructure and four historic, off-grid cabins—originally from Yancey County—that were carefully preserved and relocated here to previously offer a unique overnight glamping experience completely unplugged from utilities. Also, an earthen two-story greenhouse provides a studio or workshop. The barn has a septic connection, a bathhouse, and natural fed-spring water connection from a nearby waterfall. While you will feel fully immersed in a simpler, peaceful time, this mountain retreat is exceptionally well-located: just 9 minutes to the Spring Creek Community Center (with pickleball, the general store, and recycling, 11 minutes to the Trust General Store & Café). 20 minutes to Max Patch, and only 30 minutes to the vibrant town of Hot Springs (with the Appalachian Trail, dining, and river adventures.)

A trail loops along the field and up into the woods, light breaking through the canopy as the path climbs the mountainside. Up on the hill, a little studio with a loft, windows facing out over the land and just enough room for yoga, meditation, or an hour of quiet.

Unrestricted WNC acreage with a pond, barn, pasture, wooded build sites, and mountain views - this is the kind of property buyers search years to find. Tucked in the mountains of Mars Hill, just minutes from I-26, the Tennessee/North Carolina line, downtown Mars Hill, and within an easy drive to Asheville and Johnson City, this rare property offers the perfect blend of privacy, accessibility, and possibility. Set on 19.16 acres per deed/GIS, the land is a beautiful mix of open pasture, rolling meadow, wooded acreage, creek frontage, and usable spaces that invite big vision. Multiple potential build sites are tucked throughout the wooded acreage and open land, offering options for a future primary residence, guest cabins, a family compound, hobby farm, retreat property, or short-term rental concept. The landscape gives you the privacy buyers want without feeling isolated, and the setting delivers that unmistakable Appalachian charm - pasture, water, woods, mountain air, and room to breathe. The classic red barn anchors the property and creates an incredible focal point. Use it for storage, animals, equipment, a workshop, creative studio, or explore future possibilities such as an event space, wedding venue, gathering barn, or rustic retreat feature, subject to county approvals and permits. With no known restrictions, the property opens the door to ideas that many mountain properties simply cannot offer. Bring the horses, goats, chickens, gardens, bees, tractors, tools, or business vision. This is a property that can evolve with you. The existing home offers immediate use while you dream, plan, build, renovate, expand, or simply enjoy the land as it is. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a sunroom, wood floors, stone and tile details, and a peaceful setting, it has the character of an old mountain homestead and the flexibility to serve as a primary residence, weekend getaway, rental, caretaker’s cottage, or basecamp while developing the rest of the acreage. A private pond, bold creek, fenced pasture, fire pit, barn, shed, and outbuildings add to the function and charm. This property speaks to buyers who want more than a house. It speaks to those looking for land with purpose - homesteaders, investors, builders, outdoor enthusiasts, equestrian buyers, retreat creators, Airbnb hosts, multi-generational families, and anyone dreaming of a private mountain property with room to create something meaningful. Imagine mornings by the pond, evenings in the pasture, trails through the woods, cabins tucked into the trees, a garden near the creek, livestock in the field, guests gathering by the barn, or a future mountain home placed perfectly to take in the view. Whether your dream is a private estate, income-producing retreat, wedding or event concept, mini-farm, family compound, or legacy property to hold for generations, this Mars Hill acreage gives you the canvas. Convenient to Mars Hill University, Wolf Laurel, skiing, hiking, rafting, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville dining and medical services, and East Tennessee amenities, the location is one of the property’s strongest advantages. You can feel away from it all while still being connected to everything that makes Western North Carolina so desirable. Properties with this combination of unrestricted acreage, pasture, water features, barn, buildable land, existing home, mountain setting, and convenient location are increasingly hard to find. This is not just a listing—it is an opportunity to own a true Appalachian legacy property with room for your vision to grow. Dream big. Build bold. Bring your plans. This one is special.

Positioned on 1.445 acres carved from a larger tract, this property offers a rare combination of accessibility, flexibility, and long-range potential. With most of the acreage along the road, it’s an ideal setup for investors, builders, or anyone looking to create a custom mountain retreat without the challenges of steep or landlocked terrain. The existing 1963 home (2BR/1BA) has been partially taken down to studs — creating a blank slate for a full renovation or a clean teardown for new construction. The footprint, along with existing infrastructure, could provide a valuable head start depending on your plans. A standout feature is the large wooden barn, offering storage, workshop space, or potential creative reuse. The land itself is gently sloped and usable, with mountain views and multiple potential build sites. Enjoy the charm of a front porch setting with views, plus a screened back porch area that hints at the property’s original character. Located just 10 minutes to both Mars Hill and Marshall, and only 20 minutes to Weaverville, you get the balance of quiet mountain living with easy access to growing small-town hubs. This is a project—but it’s the kind with upside. Whether you’re looking to build new, invest, or create a mountain getaway, the fundamentals here are solid. **FHA Renovation loans are available - contact agent for details!

Built of solid cinder block for enduring strength, the home is framed by lush acreage naturally shielded by a rim at the rear—an idyllic, storybook setting perfect for quiet afternoons, games of horseshoes, or even target practice in serene seclusion. A gentle creek meanders through the property, its steady song offering peace in every season. Even during Hurricane Helene, the waters remained safely within their banks. Picture yourself on the covered deck, sipping morning coffee as you listen to the creek flow, or enjoying crisp fall evenings wrapped in privacy and nature’s embrace. Fully renovated in 2022–2023, the home offers peace of mind with a new roof, mini-split HVAC, septic, windows, plumbing, electrical, luxury vinyl plank flooring, designer lighting, and a beautifully refreshed kitchen. It’s truly move-in ready—cozy, inviting, and built to last. With its character and updates, it suits many lifestyles: a full-time residence, a romantic mountain escape, a student or faculty rental, or a high-appeal short-term rental. The location is exceptional. Just a few miles from I-26, you’re moments from Mars Hill University and a short drive to Weaverville, Hot Springs, and Asheville’s vibrant culture. For investors, proximity to the university means strong rental demand from families, faculty, and campus visitors. For adventurers, opportunities abound: skiing at nearby Hatley Pointe, hiking the iconic Pisgah National Forest and Blue Ridge Parkway, tackling Big Bald on the Appalachian Trail, or chasing waterfalls like Looking Glass Falls and Sliding Rock. Cultural experiences thrive too—enjoy live performances at the Southern Appalachian Repertory Theater, adrenaline at Bailey Mountain Bike Park, or local charm in downtown Mars Hill with its galleries, boutiques, eateries, and seasonal festivals. Madison County also offers horseback riding, breweries, wineries, and the restorative hot springs that give the nearby town its name. Mars Hill delivers the best of both worlds: small-town mountain living with big-city access. In less than 20 minutes you can be in Asheville, renowned for its food scene, arts, music, and shopping—before returning home to the quiet beauty of your own private sanctuary. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. A place where craftsmanship, nature, and opportunity converge. Whether you dream of cozy nights by the fire, gathering friends for weekends in the mountains, or creating a profitable investment property, this cottage provides the backdrop for memories and moments that will last a lifetime.

153 Arrowood Corner Road, Mars Hill

$725,000

For buyers seeking a full-scale project, this property offers the opportunity to create an entirely new vision in a classic mountain setting. The traditional 1.5-story farmhouse sits on approximately 100 acres in rural Spring Creek Valley, featuring open pastureland, wooded hillsides, creek frontage, and long-range mountain views. The outbuildings include a multi-car tandem garage/workshop, an equipment building, and a livestock barn. The property is located in the scenic Spring Creek Valley, surrounded by steep hillsides and a stream that ultimately flows into the French Broad River. Just down the road is the Spring Creek Community Center, a long-standing gathering point for local residents. The broader Hot Springs area is well known for Appalachian hiking, fishing, and outdoor recreation. The home and all outbuildings require restoration. This is an estate transaction, and the sellers have never occupied the home. Recorded rights-of-way exist for adjoining property owners. Due to the property's overall condition, it will not meet all financing requirements. All inspections are for buyer information only; the sellers will not perform or pay for any repairs, including those required by an appraisal. The property is being sold strictly “As Is,” “Where Is,” and “With All Faults.” The seller is a trust representing the estate of the owners who passed away and therefore makes no warranties or representations, express or implied, including any warranties of merchantability or fitness. No well permit was located. Because the county’s recorded construction year conflicts with the home’s observed materials, the true age of the dwelling is considered unknown. It is also unknown whether any buried fuel tanks exist on the property. A portion of the acreage across Hwy 209, as well as approximately one-third of the 25-acre pasture used for hay, is located within the designated floodway zone. Property showings are available by appointment only. Please contact your Realtor to schedule a time.
