From this central Western North Carolina location, adventure is always close at hand. Within an hour’s drive or less, you can enjoy trout fishing, tubing, rafting, canoeing, and kayaking, along with snow skiing, snowboarding, and tubing in the winter months. World-renowned destinations such as Biltmore Estate, the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, the cultural heritage of Cherokee, and the excitement of Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort are all easily accessible.
Back at home, the property truly shines as a place to gather and create. Enjoy memorable evenings entertaining beneath the expansive outdoor pavilion, pursue hobbies in the spacious workshops, or cultivate your own gardens across the beautiful level grounds.
This is a property where space, scenery, and lifestyle come together beautifully. Schedule your private showing and experience all it has to offer.
