Over 11 acres conveniently located in the City limits of Marion! A house with this much acreage in town is simply not easy to find and, yet, here it is...located on N. Main St or what locals refer to as "the 5-lane;" the main corridor through the City of Marion. Currently, in use by a local non-profit, this location was previously a Chiropractor's office. The property contains four (4) separate parcels with over 770' of road frontage; one (1) large land parcel, two (2) small land parcels (0.09 of an acre each), and the house is on 0.53 of an acre. The house has two bedrooms and a bonus room (currently used as a bedroom) which has its own outside access onto the porch/deck. Ceiling fixtures such as large medallions and a gorgeous chandelier with high ceilings and large crown molding give the spaces a dramatic yet classic feel. The exposed brick with an electric fireplace in the entry welcome all who come with a cozy atmosphere as do the hardwood floors through-out the main portion of the house. Small yet sufficient, the kitchen also offers access from the outside. The refrigerator and stove convey as do the washer and dryer in the spacious laundry room. While the home offers adequate space there is also room for big dreams of a possible 2nd home atop the larger tract which, with some clearing, could boast of scenic views of the northern mountains. If another homesite is not what your heart desires, then consider a short-term rental with a private trail system running through-out the property to appeal to the growing hiking/biking community of visitors to the County or simply keep it as your backyard playground; future expansion of the Fonta Flora State Trail is proposed to occur along this roadway. A small complex of townhomes or apartments could also be positioned on the higher elevations of the property to provide many with a view to call home. No matter the path the future owner decides to take, the road that leads there already exists, but will require additional work to sustain any traffic outside of personal use. The old roadbed to access the acreage is not located on the subject property, however, there is an existing 12' right-of-way along the road, is in good condition, and currently used by ATV to maintain the property. A small branch/creek running along the roadbed (also on the adjacent property) offers visual interest as well as a small waterfall and rock formations, before ultimately crossing onto the parcel containing the house.

For nearly fifty years, this working farm has been a hidden masterpiece of the Blue Ridge Mountains, reached by a mile-long gravel drive that winds through open pasture, alongside creeks, and beneath towering hardwoods before finally opening to the home. And what a home it is. Custom-built in 1978, the home blends timeless architecture with a level of craftsmanship and character that’s difficult to replicate today. Nearly 2,500 square feet of living space, filled with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, natural stone, and remarkable natural light, gives the home a warmth that balances perfectly with its scale and craftsmanship. At the heart of the home is an enormous double-sided fireplace built from hand-selected local stone, anchoring two separate living areas. The layout was thoughtfully designed, with the primary suite positioned on the main level and two additional bedrooms with a full bath upstairs. Large windows throughout the home frame views of the surrounding farm and mountains in nearly every direction, while newer Pella windows along the northern side of the main level bring even more light into the living spaces. Solid-surface countertops, wide-plank hardwood floors, architectural shingles, a partial basement, an attached two-car garage, and a large rear deck complete the home beautifully. Outside, the estate unfolds across 139 acres of some of Western North Carolina’s most desirable landscape. Approximately 20 acres are established pastureland with partial fencing already in place, while the remainder of the property stretches through mature timber, trails, and multiple creeks flowing through the farm. Several potential building sites throughout the property offer exceptional long-range views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the potential for a family compound, event venue or investment. The farm remains highly functional as well, with a storage and implement barn, large metal garage/storage building, and tractor and hay equipment conveying with the sale. Certain furnishings inside the home will remain too. Properties like this are becoming increasingly rare — not simply because of the acreage, but because of the complete package. A truly custom home with architectural character. Privacy without isolation. Usable land. Water. Views. History. And a setting that feels every bit as special as the home itself. This is the kind of property families hold onto for generations.

Private Mountaintop Estate | 5 Bedrooms | ±11.39 Acres | Solar Uninterrupted views of Marion from one of the highest homesites in the area. High above downtown, this two-story estate sits on approximately 11.39 acres of mountaintop land, reached by a paved private drive. The setting is quiet and private by elevation itself. The property borders Mount Ida Wilderness Park — 36 acres of city preserve with a one-mile trail to overlooks of Short Off Mountain and the town below. Downtown Marion is about three-tenths of a mile away. You live above it. You easily go down to it. Solar panels crown the home — a quieter kind of luxury: lower operating cost, a lighter footprint, and the comfort of generating power on your own roof while the views do the rest. The main level is built for living well. A fully appointed kitchen with breakfast nook. Formal dining. A great room wrapped in glass, fireplace at the center, views running front to back. The primary suite is its own retreat: fireplace, private bath with jetted tub, and a screened covered deck. The great room opens to a broad entertaining deck above Marion. Upstairs: four bedrooms and two full baths. One suite is large enough to serve as a second primary, with its own bath, walk-in closet, and a private balcony. This is a rare combination in McDowell County — acreage, long views, trail access, solar, and Main Street close enough for dinner, the Peavine, and the farmers market. A private mountaintop estate that still belongs to town. If you want room, elevation, and a home that works as beautifully as it looks, this property deserves a private showing.

If the perfect home had a recipe, this one might just be the finished dish. Start by measuring out 1.47 acres of peaceful land, giving you room to breathe, garden, play, or simply enjoy the quiet that comes with a little extra space. Homes offering usable acreage and privacy are becoming harder to find, making this the perfect first ingredient. Next, blend in a move-in ready three bedroom, two bath home filled with character and thoughtful improvements. Originally built in the 1950s and extensively renovated in 2007, the home was later expanded with a permitted addition completed approximately nine to ten years ago, bringing raised ceilings and creating a brighter, more open feel throughout the living space. Now stir in the features buyers love most. True hardwood floors that add warmth and charm. A comfortable layout designed for everyday living. A dedicated home office perfect for remote work, hobbies, or creative space. Then mix in the important updates that make homeownership easier, including a roof replaced approximately three to four years ago on the original portion of the home, a recently replaced heat pump, PEX plumbing, updated electrical, and newer windows. Next, gently fold in the outdoor spaces that make this property shine. A covered deck perfect for morning coffee or relaxing evenings. A fenced yard offering space for pets, gardening, or play. Plus additional outbuildings that provide storage, hobby space, or workshop potential. Finally, knead together everything this home offers: acreage, privacy, character, and thoughtful improvements already in place. And while this may not be your grandma’s famous apple pie recipe, it might just be the perfect recipe for your happily ever after. Come see it in person and decide if this is the home where your next chapter begins. After all, the only thing missing from this recipe is you.
