34.160 Acres of heirloom farmland. The property has been in one family for 100's of years. It was a working farm for 70 years. Gorgeous views of Roan Mountain, fields of overgrown pastureland. Lovely creek as a boundary line. The land backs up to Pisgah National Forest. Survey done in 2023, state road frontage. Land like this does not come up for sale often. There were three homes on the property. The old brick home is in very poor shape, no value. But has a well and septic. There were two mobile homes on the property that have been removed. One shared the well with the main house. The third homesite has a private driveway, and we are verifying septic and water source. Multiple power poles, but the power is not connected. The creek crosses the road and is the lower boundary line. This is a rare find! The owner is scheduling some mowing so that it will be easier to hike.

MOTIVATED SELLERS!!! Own a beautiful home with a nearly brand-new guest home in Little Switzerland. So, picture this — on 4.22 developable acres, completely un-subdivided. NO HOA! NO RESTRICTIONS! NO ZONING! — two beautifully appointed homes. Whether you're thinking multigenerational living, a legacy property for your family, a vacation rental income stream, a 1031 exchange, or simply the most extraordinary personal retreat you've ever owned — this property checks every single box. And because it's a well-documented two-home setup, financing is straightforward — ask about lender options. | Both homes have their own Generac propane generators — brand new in 2025, five-year warranties — so when the mountain weather does what mountain weather does, you're completely unfazed. Included with the property — and I love this detail — two UTVs: a 2022 Polaris Ranger Crew and a 2008 Yamaha Rhino with a snow plow and winch. Because on this property, those aren't toys — they're tools. There's a shared well, new in 2024, producing ten gallons per minute of pure mountain water through a full filtration and backwash system. Both homes run Starlink — professionally installed, averaging over 300 Mbps — and high-speed fiber is available locally as well. | Now, here's where it gets really special. The land itself has been curated — black walnut and chestnut trees, seven fenced raised-bed vegetable gardens, mature apple, pear, and peach trees, a grape and raspberry orchard. At the heart of it all is a custom "pub shed" — hemlock and cedar, water and electric, flagstone pavers, a stone fire pit — an absolute gathering place. Behind it, a state-of-the-art greenhouse with a misting system and polycarbonate roof for year-round growing. And surrounding everything — a thousand mature lavender plants, beautiful AND functional — they naturally deter pests and wildlife. There's also a section of the property — currently undeveloped — with 180-degree dramatic views of Mount Mitchell and the Black Mountain Range, overlooking a gorgeous lake on the adjoining property. Room for a third home, should someone desire it. | The main house — completed in 2004 — is a rustic mountain lodge, three bedrooms, two baths, generous decks, a four-year-old standing seam metal roof. Inside, a Mitsubishi ductless multi-zone heat and air system, two gas log units, vaulted ceilings, wood-paneled walls, granite counters, stainless appliances with a gas range, under-cabinet lighting, and tankless on-demand hot water. A new Seville Classics basement storage system conveys with the sale. | The guest house — built in 2023 — is a complete architectural contrast in the best possible way, and sits right on the Blue Ridge Parkway tourist corridor — a genuine income opportunity. Contemporary, bright, open — quartz countertops, easy-close cabinetry, one bedroom, one bath, main-level laundry, an office nook, and its own Mitsubishi system. It feels fresh and new because it is fresh and new. | And the location — five minutes to Little Switzerland, fifteen to Spruce Pine and Grassy Creek Golf and Country Club, five minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway, thirty minutes to Burnsville, forty minutes to Banner Elk, Beech Mountain, Sugar Mountain — skiing, dining, golf. Thirty minutes to Lake James. An hour to Asheville. An hour to Tri-Cities Airport. Two hours to Charlotte. | Every single time you drive to the post office or the grocery store, you're taking a scenic drive that most people on this planet would have to save a lifetime just to come and visit. That's not a marketing line. That's just the truth.

Check out this 22 ACRE FARM on BIG ROCK CREEK! It is all flat except for a short hill down to the water and sits at the base of ROAN MOUNTAIN! Look at those VIEWS! This place is a unicorn - you truly won't find another one like it! It has a sweet little farm house serving as a rental at the moment. It could make a great stepping stone to go ahead and start enjoying the property as you build, or continue to rent it and bring in a bit of income along the way. There are two other homes on the property as well. One is brick and was built in the 70's. It needs work to be habitable again but was once very nice and looks worth the effort to bring back. The other home is older but in a dreamy setting out in the middle of the fields, and has really cool unique accents to the exterior - not habitable either. There are also two barns and you'll see in some of the older spring pictures that this place is just begging to be farmed. It is a bit overgrown at the moment, but plans are in the works to have it cut back. The place has direct access on a state maintained paved road & cable/internet!
