Nearly a century of character, thoughtfully restored for the way we live today. Built in 1929, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been a true labor of love, with the current owners spending the past five years carefully restoring and improving the property while honoring the craftsmanship and character of its era. Step inside and you'll immediately see details that simply aren't found in most newer homes—stunning original hardwood floors, substantial window and door casings, beautiful moldings and original fireplace surrounds that preserve the home's history. While the original fireplaces have been closed and are no longer in use, their craftsmanship remains an integral part of the home's character. One fireplace has been brought back to life with the addition of a wood stove, creating a wonderfully cozy gathering space. The kitchen was taken down to the studs and completely rebuilt, combining modern function with finishes thoughtfully selected to complement the home's age. Subway tile extends all the way to the ceiling, while butcher-block countertops on the island, gold-tone fixtures, custom-built pantry doors and replaced appliances create a space that feels fresh without feeling out of place in a 1929 home. That same attention to detail carries into both renovated bathrooms. Rather than simply installing contemporary finishes, the owners intentionally selected materials and fixtures that reference the home's original era. One bath features classic subway tile, rich color, traditional-style fixtures and a beautiful stained-glass transom above the door. Even the new bathtub was specifically selected for its vintage-inspired design, complemented by warm brass fixtures and carefully chosen finishes. These are renovations designed to belong in this house—not erase its history. An enclosed former porch was also completely transformed into a functional mudroom and laundry room. The floors were leveled and the space rebuilt to create an entirely new everyday-use area. And the improvements go well beyond cosmetics. Within the past five years, the owners have replaced the HVAC system, added a mini-split upstairs, upgraded the electrical, encapsulated the crawl space, installed new lighting, added new decking and provided a generator connection—with the generator conveying. A standing-seam metal roof adds another substantial improvement. Outside may be every bit as special as the interior. New pathways wind through thoughtfully created gardens filled with both ornamental plantings and an impressive collection of established edibles, including strawberries, asparagus, apples, cherries, figs, peaches, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries, along with raised garden beds and more. Relax on the deck, gather around the firepit, work in the garden or simply enjoy this tucked-away setting beneath the trees. Conveniently located near downtown and Lake James, this isn't simply an older home that has been remodeled. It is a 1929 home that has been carefully brought forward while allowing the craftsmanship, warmth and personality of its past to remain. From the gardens and outdoor spaces to the smallest interior details, the work here has been researched, considered and completed with care. Come appreciate the labor of love that's already been poured into this home—and add your own chapter to its nearly 100-year story.

3 bedrooms and large bonus room, 4 acres, and under $350K — with tons of potential! Located less than 5 minutes from I-40, this property offers the space and privacy of country living while keeping nearby towns and everyday conveniences an easy commute away. Inside, the main level features spacious rooms and plenty of natural light. The eat-in kitchen opens to a cozy living room, while the generous dining room/den offers a warm gathering space with a wood-burning fireplace. A large bonus room and full bathroom are also conveniently located on the main level. Upstairs are three bedrooms and another full bathroom. One of the bedrooms is exceptionally large and offers plenty of flexibility — it could make an impressive primary suite, bonus room, home office, or even have a bathroom added to create additional living options.

There is tremendous opportunity here for someone looking to add value and make the home their own. The home was owner-occupied through July 2026 and is ready for its next chapter. It may need some cosmetic updating, but the bones, space, acreage, and location provide an excellent foundation for a comfortable home, investment, or future glow-up. A few things to know: One corner of the basement can become damp during periods of heavy rain. The tax record indicates three bathrooms; the home currently has two full bathrooms. The basement has roughed in plumbing for a third bathroom if desired. The listing agent is related to the seller. If you're looking for land, space, convenience, and opportunity under $350K, this one is worth a look.

There’s something special about an old farmhouse just waiting to be brought back to life and this Glenwood property is ready for its next chapter! Set on a wonderfully flat yard with ample parking and plenty of space for outdoor gatherings, this property has the setting, character and bones to inspire someone with a vision. Inside, you’ll find gorgeous hardwood flooring, large rooms throughout the main level and a spacious full bathroom. There’s an undeniable “old house charm” here, and with the right updates and renovations, it’s easy to imagine these spaces coming alive again. Upstairs are two bedroom spaces(bonus room that previously functioned as a third bedroom), giving you even more room to work with as you restore this home to its full potential. The home is heated by a furnace; however, when the furnace was replaced, it appears the vent piping was not connected to the upstairs vent, and the upper level is not currently receiving heat from the furnace. For this reason, the upstairs square footage is being reported as Non-HLA (non-heated living area). There is no bathroom upstairs. Buyers are encouraged to investigate the heating system and requirements for bringing this area into heated living area to their satisfaction. And the farmhouse feel doesn’t stop at the house! An old barn and older singlewide are also located on the property, adding to the story AND the possibilities. The condition and functionality of the singlewide are unknown, while the barn appears to be in poor condition and may require significant repair or removal. Buyers should independently evaluate both structures. Make no mistake, this is a true fixer-upper and will require someone prepared to put in the work or hire the professionals to do it. But with beautiful hardwoods, generously sized rooms, a flat yard, ample parking and a desirable Glenwood location, there is plenty here worth bringing back to life. If old homes, farmhouse character and a good “before and after” speak to you, come see the possibilities for yourself! Cash preferred; conventional financing will be considered.

Outside, the 3.5 acre terraced yard is a masterpiece of native landscaping—stone walls, winding trails, and lush plantings of rhododendron, boxwoods, and long-established perennials that bloom with the seasons. From the porch enjoy the protected, panoramic southern views of Linville Ridge and Table Rock. This is a true piece of historic Little Switzerland that must be seen to appreciate.

Developers, investors and mountain lovers, this is a property worth exploring. You've just found an unrestricted 18.99 acre mountain estate that has the potential to either be Old Fort's next great neighborhood, a very successful short term rental or a multi-generational legacy estate surrounded by nature. Located just 9 minutes from the breweries, shops, and the outdoor lifestyle that has Old Fort making headlines, this prime mountain property offers an extraordinary opportunity. Let's start with the development and subdivision potential. With over 1,000 feet of very buildable ridge line with no restrictions, the acreage is uniquely positioned for a multitude of homesites several of which could sit atop the ridge with potential views of Hickorynut Mountain. If you're not familiar, Hickorynut Mountain is a 12,000 acre piece of land that is currently in a private conservancy and is slated to be transferred to the state with two thirds of it to be made into a state park (read: indefinite pristine views.) As a developer, your costs will be reduced because a road to the ridge is already partially roughed-in while another road that runs the ridge's entire length is fully roughed-in. Whether you fancy a select number of larger homes or a neighborhood of tiny homes or something in between, your vision can become reality here. If you're thinking about short term rental potential you're in luck as this home bridges traditional log construction with contemporary refinement. Tucked away for total privacy at the end of a paved drive, it boasts many features desired by renters including over 800 square feet of deck space, vaulted ceilings with a soapstone wood burning stove and a floor to ceiling stone chimney, a 1 Gbps symmetrical fiber line and an office for remote work, plenty of nature and hiking trails in addition to great proximity to Old Fort, Asheville and Lake James. The custom-built nearly 2400 square foot log home also has massive windows that drench the space with natural light. Fine hickory flooring and cultured marble counter tops run throughout while 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths highlighted by a primary suite with a dedicated soaking tub will have everyone relaxing. The massive 990 square foot two car garage includes a dedicated workspace for outdoor gear and projects. Thoughtfully engineered, the stone chimney in the main floor extends directly down to this lower level providing the built-in infrastructure to easily add a second stove for a heated, year-round workshop. It's all about lifestyle here and outdoor living is central to the property's design. We recommend exploring the land during your showing to fully understand its uniqueness, potential and beauty. Whether it's enjoying quiet mornings enveloped by the lush privacy of your own forest, adding this property to your portfolio of short term rentals, or executing your vision for a multi-homesite development project, this property represents a rare and versatile acquisition in the Blue Ridge foothills that is unmatched.
