Rare Large-Scale Residential Development Opportunity Near Bryson City! Don't miss the opportunity to acquire and develop one of the last significant residential tracts in the Alarka/Bryson City area. Strategically located near the Alarka Road/US-74 interchange (Exit 64), this property offers convenient access to Bryson City, Cherokee, the Nantahala area, Fontana Lake and the Great Smoky Mountains. The location combines a peaceful mountain setting with excellent regional accessibility. Alarka Road (SR 1140) is identified by NCDOT as carrying approximately 8,300 vehicles per day between US-19 and Deep Gap Road, providing substantial exposure along this established community corridor. The property's proximity to US-74 and Exit 64 places it at an important gateway between Bryson City and the surrounding communities and recreational destinations. Nearby Swain West Elementary School, established residential neighborhoods and existing development contribute to the area's strong residential character. The Alarka corridor is already attracting significant investment, including larger-scale residential development nearby, demonstrating continued interest in this desirable mountain community. For the experienced developer, the property presents an opportunity to create a substantial residential community rather than simply individual homesites. Potential concepts could include a phased single-family subdivision, lower-density mountain-home community, second-home/primary-residence development, or other residential uses, subject to zoning, utilities, access, environmental considerations and governmental approvals. Large tracts with this combination of size, highway access, community infrastructure and proximity to Bryson City are increasingly difficult to find in Western North Carolina. The property's position near Exit 64 and along the Alarka corridor provides a compelling combination of accessibility and long-term development potential. Position your investment ahead of the next phase of growth in the Alarka/Bryson City corridor. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a significant mountain tract with the potential to help shape a future residential community in one of Western North Carolina's most desirable areas.

Paradise on a bluff overlooking the French Broad River adjoining US Forest Service Land. Paint Rock Farm is a magical property, easy to get to, yet a lifetime removed from the stress of city living. With approximately 150 acres including nearly a MILE on the French Broad River and approximately 12 acres of flat laying open fields, this is a dream property. It 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 house 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 seven RV sites of with utilities. 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. Sellers will place some very light restrictions on the remainder. In addition to the two existing 9 bedroom septic systems, permits are on hand for two more septic systems for four and two 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.

11 Westwood  Place, Asheville
$995,000
4418092 MLS
A corner lot at the center of one of Asheville's most navigable and in-demand neighborhoods, 11 Westwood Place offers rare flexibility for its next owner. The site sits within a short distance of The Admiral, W.A.L.K. and Harvest Records, placing any future resident inside the established mixed-use fabric of West Asheville rather than adjacent to it, a distinction increasingly valued by those prioritizing accessibility over square footage. For a developer, the opportunity is substantial. Zoned HR2-EXP, the property carries meaningful entitlement momentum for an eight-unit townhome development. The site plan has moved through multiple rounds of formal grading, stormwater and erosion-control review with the City of Asheville's Development Services Department, translating directly into saved time and engineering cost for whoever picks up the project. For a buyer envisioning a single custom home, the same site offers something equally compelling: a flat corner lot in one of West Asheville's most established and appreciating pockets, with 194 feet of combined frontage along Westwood Place and Waynesville Avenue and long-range mountain view potential from upper living levels. It's a rare chance to build a private residence within a short distance of the neighborhood's best restaurants, coffee and record shops on a site with more street presence and buildable flexibility than typical infill lots. Flat, workable topography keeps site prep straightforward regardless of direction and the corner position gives either a multi-unit or single-family design room to maximize light, access and curb appeal. Whether the path forward is an income-producing townhome development or a custom-built single-family home, 11 Westwood Place delivers a navigable West Asheville address, workable topography and mountain-view upside, a combination well suited to developers, builders and individual buyers alike evaluating land near Haywood Road and the West Asheville corridor.
