Step inside this one-level mountain retreat, waiting for you next to Gorges State Park, then hike out your backdoor and quickly access the park’s trail system! You’ll love the mature rhododendron and mountain laurel that surround this home, as well as the elevated fire pit area and spacious back deck. Cozy up to the stone fireplace under the living room’s vaulted ceiling with wooden beam accents. Enjoy evening cocktails on the back deck as you unwind and relax. Perfect vacation or investment property, as it is being sold turnkey and currently has a tenant in place through the end of November. The main house hosts a welcoming foyer as well as an open floor plan between living, dining, and kitchen. Down the hall, you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom with an ensuite bath, plus two more bedrooms that share a Jack-and-Jill full bath. In 2024 the garage was partially finished, adding a studio, a full bath, and a kitchenette. (No permits were pulled for this work, so this is not counted in the total HLA.) Thoughtful updates have been made adding style and modernization through wall accents, paint, fixtures, and design. The entry road is private and there is a shared road agreement in place. An easy 14-mile drive from both downtown Brevard and downtown Cashiers. New HVAC in 2024; baseboard heat and plug-in AC units for the bonus space.

This 4BR/5.5BA estate borders 10,000 acres of National Forest with hiking trails to fly fishing and multiple large waterfalls at the property line.

A screened porch with stone fireplace extends the living space, while four ensuite guest quarters ensure privacy and comfort for loved ones and friends.

Perched atop nearly 5 unrestricted acres in the highly sought-after Penrose/Little River area, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat offers breathtaking 180-degree long-range views stretching across the Blue Ridge Parkway from Mount Pisgah to Hogback Mountain. Framed perfectly from the kitchen window, iconic Looking Glass Rock serves as the centerpiece of the ever-changing mountain panorama, creating a view that feels like a living work of art throughout the seasons. Thoughtfully designed and built by the current owners, this property combines breathtaking natural beauty, privacy, flexibility, and future potential. The 1,680-square-foot home features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a floor plan intentionally positioned to capture the views from the living room, kitchen, office, and primary bedroom. A full masonry fireplace anchors the living room, while a second masonry fireplace highlights the full unfinished basement, offering abundant storage, workshop space, and future expansion possibilities. Meticulously maintained by its original owners, the home reflects years of thoughtful stewardship and ongoing improvements. Recent updates include a new roof, freshly re-stained cedar siding, newer bedroom carpet, hickory hardwood flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and numerous other enhancements throughout. The remaining opportunities to personalize the home are primarily cosmetic, allowing the next owner to add their own vision while enjoying a property that has been carefully cared for and improved over time. Outside, years of careful landscaping have created a remarkable setting featuring impressive boulder retaining walls, stone steps, mature plantings, and countless areas to enjoy the mountain scenery. The property consists of two parcels totaling 4.794 acres and includes infrastructure rarely found in a single offering. In addition to the home's well and 3-bedroom septic system, the second parcel includes two established campsites with water, septic, and utility access. Previously operated as a successful vacation rental and later as a 55+ campground, this area offers possibilities for guest accommodations, income potential, a future homesite, or multigenerational living. The property also benefits from two wells, two septic systems, a potential additional homesite, and a former pond site that could potentially be restored. Despite surrounding properties having restrictions, this nearly 5-acre offering is completely unrestricted. Conveniently located just one mile up Jeter Mountain Road on a paved, easy-access mountain road, the property is less than eight miles from both DuPont State Recreational Forest and Pisgah National Forest, placing world-class hiking, waterfalls, mountain biking, and outdoor recreation practically at your doorstep. Rarely does a property combine extraordinary long-range views, unrestricted acreage, multiple homesite possibilities, existing utility infrastructure, and a premier Penrose location in a single offering. This is a unique opportunity to own an irreplaceable piece of Transylvania County.
