Set in the beautiful Jacks Creek community of Burnsville, this 18-acre farmstead with two homes, offers far more than a home, it offers a way of life. Framed by mountain views and anchored by a bold creek, spring fed pond, pasture, gardens, apple trees, and room to truly breathe, this property invites you to slow down, create, gather, and live more intentionally. The main home is designed for comfortable one level living with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and inviting spaces that connect beautifully to the land around it. The chef’s kitchen is both functional and welcoming, while the dedicated office with fiber optic internet overlooks the creek and fields, creating an inspiring place to work, write, plan, or simply pause. Outdoor living is woven into daily life here, with a covered deck, screened in porch, stone patio with arbor draped in grapevines, and a private sundeck with jacuzzi just off the primary suite. A separate 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest house with full kitchen adds flexibility for guests, multi generational living, rental income, or creative use. In years past, this cottage served as a weaving studio, while the large barn was home to a woodworker and welcomed visitors during the local Toe River Arts Studio Tour. That creative spirit still lingers. Whether you envision an artist retreat, workshop, maker’s compound, teaching space, event venue, hobby farm, or homestead, the setting is ready for your next chapter. The multi-purpose barn offers generous open space for gatherings, projects, storage, or farming use, with four stalls and additional storage rooms below. The grounds tell their own story, vegetable gardens, apple trees, herb and berry plantings, open pasture, and fertile farmland that has supported a life close to the land. The wooded acreage is home to wildlife and invites quiet hikes. Practical features support the dream, with solar panels for sustainable living and reduced energy costs, and a whole house generator for peace of mind. Located just minutes from Downtown Burnsville and only 45 miles from Asheville, 53 miles to Asheville Regional Airport and Tri-Cities Airport is 56 miles away. This is not just a mountain property. It is a place with history, purpose, beauty, and room to build a meaningful life.
