Build a life you don't need a vacation from - where peace is the rule rather than the exception. This unique property in Western North Carolina checks all the hard-to-find boxes - 16.48 unrestricted acres (No HOA!) abundant privacy, a home with distinctive charm, a meandering stream, multiple outbuildings, established trails, and ample room to roam. The 2 BR / 2 BA home offers a versatile loft/bonus room that is ideal for a home office, guest space, or a variety of other uses. Three heat sources (heat pump, a new gas-log fireplace, and wood-burning stove) provide year-round comfort. The property boasts a 24x31 (744 SF) workshop with electric and water, plus three additional outbuildings, and a 30-amp RV hookup. More than two acres are cleared, with a stream running through the middle, offering space for gardening, homesteading, or hobby farming, while the additional 14 wooded acres invite you to explore by foot, mountain bike, or ATV. Rich in local history, the original hand-hewn log cabin was once part of a family homestead and has been lovingly cared for. Family and local historical accounts suggest the cabin dates to the 18th century and may be among the oldest surviving structures in Polk County still in its original location.
