INVESTOR ALERT!! REDUCED FOR IMMEDIATE SALE! Approximately 240± acres known as “The Falls,” an extraordinary mountain development opportunity just minutes from Bryson City. The entrance road winds between two dramatic waterfalls, introducing a property defined by rushing creeks, multiple waterfalls & BREATHTAKING long-range SUNRISE & SUNSET views. Elevations climb to over 4,000 ft, offering expansive vistas in multiple directions, including some of the most distant westerly views in the county. Significant infrastructure is already in place with blacktop & gravel roads, underground electric, phone & cable providing high-speed internet to many areas. The offering includes about 152 acres inside the gated front (west-facing) tract where lots have sold and homes are built or under construction, plus approximately 81 acres bordering the Qualla Boundary on the undeveloped rear (east-facing) tract across the ridge with existing logging trails that provide the framework for future roads. An add'l unrestricted 12.8-ac parcel lies across from the entrance. Minutes from Bryson City, Fontana Lake, Nantahala River rafting & Great Smoky Mtns Nat'l Park. The Falls — Development Opportunity | Western North Carolina The Falls presents a rare opportunity to acquire and shape an established mountain community in one of Western North Carolina’s most scenic and sought-after regions. Positioned near Bryson City and the Great Smoky Mountains, this offering combines existing infrastructure, flexible land planning, and significant upside potential for a thoughtful developer or long-term investor. Originally conceived over 20 years ago, The Falls was designed as a nature-forward community with dramatic topography, waterfalls, and long-range mountain views. The southeast 146 acres within gated community features a network of paved roads winding through the landscape, with underground power in place throughout much of the development. In this section, high-speed internet and cable are available via Zito Media—an increasingly important amenity for today’s buyers. While the original plan remains conceptual and unrecorded, the property has evolved over time, with adjusted lot configurations and redefined open spaces that enhance both usability and value. A key highlight is the Summit Park area, which offers the potential to create a limited collection of premier view homesites while still preserving meaningful shared space—allowing for a high-end, low-density product that aligns with current market demand. The offering also includes a separately deeded, unrestricted 12+ acre tract near the entrance, providing additional flexibility for future use, amenities, or alternative development concepts. Further expanding the opportunity is an adjacent 20+-acre tract, available for acquisition, with two established access points—one from the northwest boundary of the community and another via Kim Way. This additional acreage creates the potential for expanded inventory or phased development. Importantly, the sale includes Special Declarant Rights, as defined under North Carolina General Statute Chapter 47F, which may be assigned to the purchaser of the remaining restricted property. These rights provide a unique level of control over the future direction, governance, and buildout of the community. For a developer seeking a legacy project in a supply-constrained mountain market, The Falls offers scale, flexibility, infrastructure, and the ability to reimagine and execute a vision that meets today’s buyer expectations.

Offered for the first time, this remarkable mid-century modern home sits high above the Nantahala River, capturing sweeping, elevated views of the water, mountains, and treetops from a vantage point that feels both dramatic and deeply peaceful. Set on 13.6 private acres, the property blends timeless architectural character with the natural beauty of Western North Carolina, creating a retreat that feels worlds away, yet minutes from hiking, kayaking, ziplining, boating and all the outdoor activities you could want. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Inside the main home, warm white oak flooring and rich, handmade mahogany doors, windows and trim set the tone for a space that is both modern and organic. Large windows frame the ever-changing scenery, bringing in soft natural light and showcasing the river far below, the ridgelines beyond, and the surrounding forest canopy. The home’s mid-century lines create an effortless flow between living spaces, with clean geometry, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a sense of calm that makes every room feel connected to the outdoors. Whether you’re enjoying morning coffee as the fog lifts from the river or watching the sunset paint the mountains in evening color, the views here are nothing short of exceptional. Enjoy the large, open living/dining area, with three levels of panoramic windows, crowned by a large semi-circular window to bring in even more natural light and views for the living area as well as the loft bedroom upstairs. A pair of steps lead to the slightly elevated kitchen, providing an even more dramatic view of the river and mountains. Corner windows and a custom handmade mahogany table with matching bench seating provide the ultimate spot for brunch or family dinners. The loft bedroom has a private ensuite bathroom and more of the amazing views from the second floor level. A separate guest house sits just a short distance from the main home, offering its own private escape with the same stunning outlook. The upper level features a dedicated bedroom with an ensuite bath, while the lower level includes a full bath, an open living area, and a kitchenette — perfect for guests, extended family, or a private workspace. A spacious deck extends the living area outdoors, providing a front-row seat to the same elevated river and mountain views that make the main home so special. The guest house has a proven history as a successful short-term rental, and the main home could easily serve the same purpose for buyers seeking income potential. The land itself is a rare asset: 13.6 acres of privacy, wooded beauty, and complete freedom. With no restrictions, the possibilities are wide open — short-term rentals, additional dwellings, tiny homes, cabins, or a private family compound. A separate cleared, level area beside the main home offers an ideal location for building an additional residence or guest cabin, with utilities already in place. Whether you envision expanding the property, creating a multi-home retreat, or simply enjoying the acreage as it is, the land provides space, privacy, and opportunity. Every part of this property feels intentional — from the architectural details to the way the structures are positioned to capture the views. The setting is quiet and serene, with the view of the river, endless sky, and the mountains unfolding in every direction. It’s a place where you can slow down, breathe deeply, and feel connected to the landscape around you. Properties like this — with mid-century character, extraordinary views, a guest house, unrestricted acreage, and a history of successful short-term rental use — almost never come to market. This is a rare chance to own a private mountain retreat with room to grow, income potential, and a setting that feels truly extraordinary. If you’ve been searching for a home that offers beauty, privacy, and possibility in equal measure, this 13.6-acre Nantahala River overlook is ready to welcome its next steward.

This home experiences very little boat traffic and as a result is a peaceful setting where the water remains inviting and accessible. The home offers approx 4,000 heated square feet and is currently configured as four bedrooms plus a loft. The main level features a spacious primary suite, an additional guest bedroom, and a separate full bath, allowing for comfortable main-level living. Upstairs, the loft serves as a flexible space for an office, overflow sleeping area, or studio and has a half bath. The lower level expands the home’s versatility with two bedrooms, a full bath, fitness room, mud room, and additional storage space. Septic permit for 3 bedrooms. Heated floors throughout the lower level provide exceptional comfort year-round. What truly separates this property from many luxury homes is what lies beneath the surface. The foundation was built with additional reinforcement. The exterior is clad entirely in Hardie Board siding and soffits for long-term durability and low maintenance. Spray-foam insulation was installed throughout the structure, improving comfort while reducing energy consumption. The owner engineered and installed a sophisticated three-zone HVAC system with smartphone controls and outside-air circulation for enhanced efficiency and indoor air quality. Despite the home’s size, the owner reports the highest monthly power bill has been approximately $182. Throughout the home, quality finishes continue the theme of intentional construction. Energy-efficient windows fill the interior with natural light, while Hunter Douglas window treatments provide privacy and comfort. The kitchen features Bosch appliances, including an induction cooktop and quiet dishwasher. A water purification system, while the well produces more than 40 gallons per minute. The seller plans to install a holding tank and provide a shared well agreement for the adjacent home currently under construction. Outdoor living was designed with the same level of thoughtfulness. The upper covered deck offers a private retreat for enjoying mountain mornings, lake views, and cool evening breezes. The lower deck is accessible from both the interior and exterior of the home, making it convenient for guests returning from the water. A paved circular driveway provides easy arrival, departure, and ample parking. A detached two-car garage complements the additional lower-level garage and storage area, offering plenty of room for vehicles, boats, lake toys, tools, and outdoor equipment. The walk to the water is one of the property’s most appealing advantages. Unlike many mountain lakefront homes where access can be steep and challenging, the path to the shoreline is gentle, walkable, and suitable for side-by-side access. TVA approval is already in place for an 8’x12’ wooden dock landing. The current dock system is mounted on wheels and designed to adapt to seasonal water levels. Additional outdoor features include a grilling area, firepit, and landscaping. For buyers seeking a lakefront home, this offers something increasingly difficult to find: a residence built not for resale, but to satisfy the exacting standards of the person who intended to spend the rest of his life there.
