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.

Follow an old road past multiple springs and creeks up to a flat build site on the ridge with panoramic 270 degree ridgeline views to the south and west. The parcel was virtually untouched by the hurricane and many old growth hardwoods are scattered throughout, including one giant old chestnut tree next to the old cabin. The old springbox system is being rehabbed and the septic permitting process is underway. For adventure, head down to fish or float the majestic Toe River, which is only 5 minutes away. Thousands of acres of the Pisgah National Forest are close by, as is a gorgeous stretch of the Appalachian Trail. Although you will feel worlds away on this private parcel, Burnsville and Bakersville are only 20 minutes away for groceries, restaurants, shopping and the arts, while Asheville NC and Johnson City TN are about 60 minutes away. And for everyday sundries, iconic Griffith's Country Store is only 5 minutes away -- get your gardening supplies and advice, and chat with your neighbors!
