For the first time, this cherished one-owner family property is available, offering breathtaking mountain views and beautiful pasture. Awaken to sunrises that stop you in your tracks. Where deer and wild turkeys wander. Inside, enjoy a new kitchen for cooking and gathering, complemented by a covered back patio off the formal dining room. All bathrooms have been fully updated, and the primary suite opens to a new private deck; the perfect place to take in the mountain horizon in solitude. Natural light fills the living spaces, while a fully finished basement apartment with new kitchen and bonus room adds versatility for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or income-producing short-term rentals. Two attached garages and a workshop. Outside, the land invites possibility. Open fields, big sky, room for gardens, livestock, or additional homes. Nestled in peaceful Leicester. Minutes from Asheville yet a world away, this property is more than a home. It’s a rare legacy, ready for its next chapter. This home benefits from a natural buffer of open space that creates the experience of acreage without the responsibility, taxes, or maintenance. Here, the surrounding land has remained unchanged for decades, intentionally held and preserved in its natural state. For the right buyer, this is actually the advantage. In the future if the land is to be sold, it will carry development restrictions for no mobile homes and will be low density. To learn more about the additional land, please reach out directly.
