305 & 317 Sluder Branch Rd, Leicester, NC 28748

This beautifully kept historic farm features a 1910 farmhouse and a large event barn for hosting gatherings. The farmhouse has been carefully restored to retain the charm of turn-of-the-century farm life, with a porch overlooking the valley. Beadboard paneling, wood ceilings, original fireplaces, vintage hardwood flooring, and other rustic touches lend a lived-in atmosphere of an old family home. The event barn features over 3,300 feet of finished space upstairs, including expansive bathrooms and a catering kitchen; downstairs is an office, a commercial kitchen, storage, and open barn space which could be converted for agricultural/livestock use. A smaller event barn and various outbuildings are scattered among stands of old hardwood trees, with oak-lined paths and a small pond completing the full package of mountain living. Open, gentle pastures are suitable for livestock or recreation. This simply beautiful and immaculately-kept property is ready for a new legacy of generational ownership, all peacefully and privately serene yet less than 20 minutes from downtown Asheville.
