BUILD YOUR DREAM HOME — OR YOUR NEXT VENTURE — WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF DOWNTOWN COLUMBUS! This .57-ACRE CORNER LOT on Blanton Street offers a rare combination of in-town convenience and elbow room in the heart of Polk County, North Carolina. The property carries MIXED-USE ZONING, so in addition to a single-family residence it may support a range of other uses — think a home office, live/work setup, professional office, or small commercial concept (buyer to verify specific permitted uses with the Town of Columbus). CITY WATER AND SEWER ARE AVAILABLE, making this an easy, cost-effective build compared to rural parcels that require a well and septic system. The CORNER LOCATION provides two points of street access, added natural light, and flexible placement for a single-family home, a craftsman cottage, a low-maintenance ranch with a covered front porch, or a mixed-use build. The standout feature here is the WALKABLE LIFESTYLE. From Blanton Street you can stroll to historic downtown Columbus, the Polk County Courthouse square, Stearns Park, local coffee shops, restaurants, and the Columbus Farmers Market. The THERMAL BELT RAIL TRAIL runs nearby for walking, running, and biking, and the Polk County Recreation Complex offers ball fields and walking tracks. Columbus sits in the FOOTHILLS OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA with something to do in every direction. You are minutes from the TRYON INTERNATIONAL EQUESTRIAN CENTER, the Tryon Fine Arts Center, and FENCE (Foothills Equestrian Nature Center) with its miles of trails. Outdoor recreation abounds with PEARSON'S FALLS near Saluda, WHITEWATER PADDLING ON THE GREEN RIVER, hiking on White Oak Mountain, and fishing at Lake Lanier. Wine lovers can visit OVERMOUNTAIN VINEYARDS, Parker-Binns Vineyard, and Mountain Brook Vineyards, all within a short drive. Commuters and travelers benefit from QUICK ACCESS TO I-26, placing you about 35 minutes from Hendersonville, 45 minutes from Asheville, and 40 minutes from Greenville and Spartanburg, South Carolina. The Asheville Regional Airport is an easy drive. Level enough to build, close enough to walk, connected to city utilities, and flexible enough for residential or mixed-use plans — this Columbus corner lot is ready for your vision.

A Legacy Mountain Estate Adjacent to Shunkawken Falls on White Oak Mountain in Columbus, NC! ***Some homes offer beautiful views... Few offer a soundtrack!!!*** Some properties are purchased because of the home. Others are purchased because of what can never be recreated. This extraordinary White Oak Mountain estate offers both. For those who understand that true luxury is defined by rarity, this is more than a residence—it is an experience, a legacy, and an irreplaceable mountain sanctuary. Offering three separately deeded parcels, three bedrooms, two full baths, two half baths, and an unmatched setting beside Shunkawken Falls, this remarkable estate combines architectural character with one of Western North Carolina's most captivating natural landscapes. While interiors can always be personalized, you cannot recreate three adjoining parcels on White Oak Mountain with panoramic mountain vistas, a private gated approach, and the privilege of living beside one of Polk County's most treasured waterfalls. Visitors travel this scenic mountain to experience Shunkawken Falls and continue to the iconic Sunset Rock Overlook. Here, breathtaking views and the soothing sounds of cascading water become part of everyday life. There is no need to chase the perfect sunset or search for the best overlook—your front-row seat begins the moment you arrive home. A gated entrance winds through towering hardwoods, dramatic boulders, and striking iron sculptures before revealing sweeping views across Columbus, the foothills, and into Upstate South Carolina. Designed to embrace the landscape, the residence features soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, a dramatic spiral staircase, an architectural open elevator, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a wraparound deck with sleek glass railings that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. Morning coffee, evening cocktails, and unforgettable gatherings are elevated by the ever-changing mountain scenery and the peaceful soundtrack of the waterfall below. Three separately deeded parcels provide exceptional privacy, flexibility, and long-term value while offering the rare opportunity to create a true legacy estate. The greatest investment has already been made by nature itself—the land, the elevation, the waterfall, and the views. Although wonderfully secluded, the property is just minutes from Columbus, Tryon, and Landrum, the Tryon International Equestrian Center, FENCE, wineries, golf, hiking, fine dining, and convenient access to Asheville, Greenville, Hendersonville, and Spartanburg. Showings by appointment only. Proof of funds or lender pre-approval required prior to confirming a private tour - call or text with any questions or to set up an appointment!
