Property Description

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Mountain Estate Bordering Pisgah National Forest Privacy. History. Adventure. Possibilities. This is the kind of property that rarely becomes available. Ride out your own gate. This 14-acre equestrian estate borders Pisgah National Forest on three sides, opening directly onto thousands of acres of protected trail. No trailer, no trailhead, no hauling out. Paxton Creek runs year-round through the property, audible from the screened porch. One hour from Tryon International Equestrian Center. The facility is built to work. A three-stall barn with grain and tack room and full hay loft with overhang. A riding arena for lunging, training, schooling or use as a dry lot. Three fenced and cross-fenced pastures with a run-in shelter, watered by a natural freshwater spring capable of serving the barn. A 30' x 30' workshop with side overhang handles equipment, hay or a second rig, with RV parking on a 50-amp hookup and a generator hookup for the property. The log residence is engineered for permanence: a 10-foot Superior Walls foundation, a heated and cooled semi-finished basement for tack, training or recreation space, a new 3-ton heat pump (2025) and a Hot Blast wood furnace ducted throughout. Wide porches, mountain and water views, and the quiet of a property at the end of a private road. Flexible by design. Keep it as a private equestrian estate. Run it as a working homestead — pastures, chicken coop, historic blacksmith shop and spring already in place. Or build: a prepared site along the historic Wagon Trail commands 360-degree views of Old Fort Mountain and the ranges beyond. Underground utilities, well, septic, no HOA, publicly maintained road access. Fourteen acres of privacy against a permanently protected boundary, an hour from world-class competition and forty minutes from Asheville.
