15.233 ACRES with OVER 1/4 MILE of CANE RIVER FRONTAGE & only 5 MINUTES TO TOWN but without town taxes/zoning! TROUT FISHING PARADISE and NO RESTRICTIONS! Flood water from Hurricane Helene washed away debris & underbrush along the river leaving really incredible exposed bedrock, sandy beaches, and large river rock banks. It is better than before & now easy to walk along the river's edge! Easily drive right down to the water where you'll find a large cleared area that would be prime for gardening, or pasture for grazing. The rest of the ground has nice mature timber. Gentle areas in the woods if you'd prefer a home in the shade. The water is as good as it gets. Crystal clear & flowing from the west face of the Black Mountains, it is rocky & rushing in areas, but there are also SWIMMING HOLES - unfortunately you'll have to share with trout and bass! The property lies at the very end of a private road. With proximity to town, lengthy river frontage, fishable waters, pasture etc. - extremely rare offering! Last 16 pictures are post-Helene. This place is amazing!
