The perfect homestead with EVERYTHING you have dreamed of has hit the market! Ever pictured yourself beside a crackling fire, listening to the creek run just outside, while you watch your farm animals grazing in your meadow, and beyond them, long range mountain views? Look no further! This 50-acre mountain homestead has it all: wooded privacy, mountain views, three creeks, a pond, a small pasture, and 2 huge very well maintained barns w/ electricity. The charming home has a ton of character with beautiful wood beams throughout, and offers one bedroom plus an office/bonus room, a new roof, and a wood-burning fireplace and wood stove for cozy winter evenings, with a kerosene heater as the primary heat source. The living room section is believed to be from the 1800s with chestnut logs taken right off this property! Fiber optic internet means you can work from home while living out your rural country dream. The spring water system has also been upgraded with filtration and UV treatment, and a gas/propane generator can power the entire property, including the house and barns, on the rare occasion you lose power. The 2 barns provide ample storage, a wood shop, tractor drive-in access, and many animal stalls. The wood shop has a lovely picture window overlooking the meadow and pond and was once the working shop to Frank Carachi, a well known carousel horse carver. You will find some of his original art hanging on the walls and painted on the barn's very doors. This homestead is ready to produce. You'll find raised beds steps from the house, a greenhouse, and fruit/ nut trees and bushes including peach, apple, pear, chestnut, raspberry, and blackberry around the property. There's even an old rock cellar ideal for food or wine storage right under the living room. Outdoor living space is plentiful. And if you're looking for room to grow, a cleared homesite tucked in the woods off the main drive would make a great camping spot or site for a second home. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this storied homestead in the beautiful Big Pine Valley! Please note: a shared easement road runs through the property, serving two homes farther up the mountain. An all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive vehicle is required year-round for the driveway. 25 min to Marshall. 50 min to Asheville. NO DRIVE BYS, APPOINTMENT REQUIRED.

Set across 114 private acres in Madison County just outside Asheville, NC, this mountain property offers privacy, security, farmland, recreation, and two well-appointed homes. With elevations reaching just over 3,000 feet, the property features exceptional 360-degree layered mountain views. From points across the land, you can see Mt. Pisgah, Mt. Mitchell, and Asheville, NC in the distance, providing a remarkable perspective of the Western North Carolina mountains. Open pastures transition into mature hardwood forest, creating a diverse mountain landscape with multiple springs, boulder outcroppings, hiking and riding trails, and an internal road system providing access to most areas. The mix of timber, pasture, water, and elevation provides opportunities for farming, recreation, wildlife observation, and enjoying nature. Deer, black bear, wild turkey, foxes, bobcats, quail and pheasants have been observed on the property. An established small cattle operation makes practical use of the mountain pastures. Intact perimeter barbed-wire fencing and extensive electric cross-fencing create multiple pastures for rotational grazing. Automatic cattle waterers and gravity-fed troughs serve the pastures, while a partially covered corral and working area includes a loading chute and head gate. A fenced orchard with apple, pear, cherry, and peach trees and a protected VEGO raised-bed vegetable garden add to the property's agricultural capabilities. At the mountaintop, a gravel road leads to the custom-built main residence completed in 2022 and offers three bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath. The contemporary style, open concept home features Old World European-inspired masonry construction with 12-inch AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) exterior walls, triple-pane high-performance fiberglass windows, masonry floors, spray-foam insulation under the roof decking, custom cabinetry, Brazilian granite countertops with waterfall style granite center island, high ceilings, and an oversized two-car garage with equipment porch. An outdoor Isokern fireplace with a natural stone hearth creates an outdoor living space for enjoying the mountain setting. The newly remodeled guest house features two bedrooms and one bath along with mountain and pasture views from the front porch. Features include a circular driveway, well and spring-fed cistern, newly installed Trex porch decking, Morso wood stove, newly installed Mitsubishi mini-split system, spray-foam insulation, wood-look tile flooring, and an alarm system with camera. The property also includes substantial utility and security infrastructure. An 8.8KW ground-mounted solar array is paired with a 15KW inverter and approximately 20.5KWh of battery storage. A 22KW Generac propane generator and owned underground 1,000-gallon propane tank provide additional energy capability. A solar-powered electric security gate controls access to the property, while gravel roads with established drainage lead to both residences. A 10-by-24-foot insulated storage building with electricity and lighting provides additional space for equipment and supplies. Recreational opportunities are found throughout the 114 acres. In addition to hiking and riding trails, the property includes a shooting range and wooded acreage to explore by horseback or ATV. Multiple springs originate on the property, and the combination of mature hardwoods, pasture edges, water sources, and varied terrain creates quality wildlife habitat. This Madison County mountain farm offers the opportunity to own 114 acres where privacy, security, agriculture, recreation, and proximity to nature come together within reach of Asheville. From the 360-degree layered NC and TN mountain views and elevations above 3,000 feet to the working pastures, hardwood forest, springs, trails, cattle facilities, and two residences, the property provides the land and infrastructure for a wide range of Western North Carolina mountain pursuits.

6 Beds ⋅ 5 Baths ⋅ 4417141 MLS ⋅ 2,468 SqFt. ⋅ ACTIVE Status
Tucked away 40 minutes north of Asheville, this extraordinary 35-acre sanctuary at 1061 Indian Trail is a true Appalachian homestead rich with character and heritage. Having known only three owners throughout its history, the estate offers an irreplaceable sense of place, completely surrounded by the pristine, protected wilderness of Pisgah National Forest. Accessed via a scenic Forest Service gravel road, the land transitions from lush timber to roughly 10 cleared acres complete with an organic garden, mature muscadine vines, and producing blueberry bushes. The native wildlife creates an enchanting backdrop, with regular sightings of bald eagles, black bears, and rare fireflies. Flowing from above the property onto and through the land, Hampton Creek cascades down to a waterfall that can be heard right from the house before making its way to the private trout pond, which features a small dock with a ladder for easy swimming and kayaking access. The main residence is thoughtfully designed to showcase the idyllic surroundings. It features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, including main-floor bedrooms that look directly out over the calm waters of the pond. Two of the main-level bathrooms have been recently renovated, blending modern comfort with mountain charm. Below, the basement provides extra flexible space complete with a third full bathroom, a newly finished bonus room, and abundant storage space. The heart of the home extends outdoors to a sweeping, screened-in wraparound porch that captures the crisp mountain air, alongside a convenient attached single-car carport. Nearby, a historic root cellar built directly into the hillside offers a fascinating nod to traditional mountain living. A second home on the property—a light-filled guest cabin with a proven track record as a successful short-term rental—provides flexible living options or instant income potential. The cabin features a smart, two-story layout with an open-concept kitchen, living area, and half bath upstairs, while three bedrooms and a full bathroom rest quietly on the lower level. Its private porch sits nestled in the canopy, offering another elevated view of the trout pond and an additional equipment shed nearby to store farm or lawn gear. Beyond the property line, outdoor adventure is practically infinite. The iconic Appalachian Trail is located just a short distance away, while nearby Wolf Laurel and Hatley Point provide exceptional resort amenities, including golf, tennis, dining, and fitness facilities. Hatley Point also features a newly renovated lodge, winter skiing, and a new mountain bike park. Offering a rare combination of complete privacy, rich history, and modern recreational convenience, this legendary mountain retreat stands ready for its next chapter.

First time on the market in more than 125 years. Held by the same family for generations, this extraordinary 124± acre legacy property presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of the largest privately held tracts along the French Broad River in Western North Carolina. With nearly a mile (5,000+ feet) of French Broad River frontage and approximately five acres of level river-bottom land, the property offers an exceptional blend of natural beauty, privacy, and versatility. Towering hardwoods, open bottomland, mountain views, abundant wildlife, and one of North America's oldest rivers create a setting that is both timeless and inspiring. Properties of this scale and character are exceedingly rare. Whether envisioned as a private riverfront estate, sporting retreat, equestrian property, boutique lodge, wellness sanctuary, family compound, conservation holding, or long-term investment, the possibilities are limited only by imagination. The extensive river frontage invites fishing, kayaking, tubing, and riverside recreation, while the surrounding acreage provides ample room for trails, horseback riding, hunting, and outdoor adventure. Located within easy reach of Asheville, the property combines remarkable seclusion with convenient access to restaurants, shopping, healthcare, and regional attractions, making it equally appealing as a private retreat or hospitality destination. Steeped in history, this land tells a story that stretches back centuries. Long before European settlement, Cherokee people traveled and camped along the banks of the French Broad River. For more than a century afterward, the same family carefully stewarded this land, farming its fertile river-bottom fields and preserving its natural beauty for future generations. Today, that legacy is offered to the market for the very first time. This is far more than acreage—it is an irreplaceable riverfront legacy, a rare investment in one of Western North Carolina's most coveted natural corridors, and an opportunity that may not present itself again for generations. The next chapter is yours to write.

Tucked into the mountains of Mars Hill near the Madison/Yancey County line, nearly 59 acres that have remained in the same family since the 1800s are being offered for sale for the first time. For the first time in generations, this Madison County mountain property is ready for its next chapter. This is the kind of land buyers search for and rarely find all in one tract. Start at the bottom with open pasture, a beautiful old barn, creek, and a spring. Remnants of the property’s long history are still here, including a primitive cabin and old dwelling. They are being conveyed as-is, with no value attributed and no representation as to condition or suitability for occupancy, but they offer a glimpse into the generations who called this mountain home. Then follow the mountain upward through mature woods, along an existing rough road and trail system, where the elevation climbs, the privacy deepens, and long-range mountain views begin to open up near the top. For the buyer with vision, the possibilities are wide open: create a private mountain estate, establish a homestead, explore the potential for a family compound, hunt, hike, ride ATVs, keep the pasture open, or simply own a substantial piece of Western North Carolina and preserve it for the next generation. Twin Oaks Road is paved nearly to the property. From there, the interior road climbs, and it is currently best suited for ATV or appropriate four-wheel-drive access. No septic or electrical service is currently installed. Buyers should independently verify septic suitability, utilities, access, structural condition, and suitability of the property for their intended use. There are plenty of places to buy acreage. There are far fewer places where you get pasture, water, a barn, history, privacy, mountain views, and nearly 59 acres to make entirely your own. Call me today to schedule a showing!

Welcome to Little Bodhi Creek Farm Stay, an extraordinary 106-acre former tobacco farm in the heart of Madison County that serves as an eccentric, peaceful "hippie haven" rich with mature chestnuts, sassafras, native plant species, multiple creeks, waterfalls, natural springs, and impressive historic structures. Dense woods seamlessly run into rolling meadows, historic logging roads, and protected ridgetops, creating a landscape reminiscent of nearby Max Patch where wildlife like elk, deer, and bear roam freely. At the start of the acreage, an original four-bedroom farmhouse boasts gorgeous stonework and various significant updates for smart-modern mountain living, featuring a preserved yet remodeled interior with unpainted woodwork and stunning original hardwoods throughout both levels that presents an incredible opportunity for historical restoration. Expansive trails and roads lead you into every nook and cranny of the total acreage. Multiple pastures, flat landscapes, a stunning man-made pond, beautiful hand-built retaining walls, and altars offer the perfect backdrop for a gorgeous wedding venue, concert space, horse farm, multi-generational compound, or an expanded cabin retreat. Perfect for long-term investment holding. In addition to the main farmhouse, the property includes rich infrastructure and four historic, off-grid cabins—originally from Yancey County—that were carefully preserved and relocated here to previously offer a unique overnight glamping experience completely unplugged from utilities. Also, an earthen two-story greenhouse provides a studio or workshop. The barn has a septic connection, a bathhouse, and natural fed-spring water connection from a nearby waterfall. While you will feel fully immersed in a simpler, peaceful time, this mountain retreat is exceptionally well-located: just 9 minutes to the Spring Creek Community Center (with pickleball, the general store, and recycling, 11 minutes to the Trust General Store & Café). 20 minutes to Max Patch, and only 30 minutes to the vibrant town of Hot Springs (with the Appalachian Trail, dining, and river adventures.)

Unrestricted WNC acreage with a pond, barn, pasture, wooded build sites, and mountain views - this is the kind of property buyers search years to find. Tucked in the mountains of Mars Hill, just minutes from I-26, the Tennessee/North Carolina line, downtown Mars Hill, and within an easy drive to Asheville and Johnson City, this rare property offers the perfect blend of privacy, accessibility, and possibility. Set on 19.16 acres per deed/GIS, the land is a beautiful mix of open pasture, rolling meadow, wooded acreage, creek frontage, and usable spaces that invite big vision. Multiple potential build sites are tucked throughout the wooded acreage and open land, offering options for a future primary residence, guest cabins, a family compound, hobby farm, retreat property, or short-term rental concept. The landscape gives you the privacy buyers want without feeling isolated, and the setting delivers that unmistakable Appalachian charm - pasture, water, woods, mountain air, and room to breathe. The classic red barn anchors the property and creates an incredible focal point. Use it for storage, animals, equipment, a workshop, creative studio, or explore future possibilities such as an event space, wedding venue, gathering barn, or rustic retreat feature, subject to county approvals and permits. With no known restrictions, the property opens the door to ideas that many mountain properties simply cannot offer. Bring the horses, goats, chickens, gardens, bees, tractors, tools, or business vision. This is a property that can evolve with you. The existing home offers immediate use while you dream, plan, build, renovate, expand, or simply enjoy the land as it is. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a sunroom, wood floors, stone and tile details, and a peaceful setting, it has the character of an old mountain homestead and the flexibility to serve as a primary residence, weekend getaway, rental, caretaker’s cottage, or basecamp while developing the rest of the acreage. A private pond, bold creek, fenced pasture, fire pit, barn, shed, and outbuildings add to the function and charm. This property speaks to buyers who want more than a house. It speaks to those looking for land with purpose - homesteaders, investors, builders, outdoor enthusiasts, equestrian buyers, retreat creators, Airbnb hosts, multi-generational families, and anyone dreaming of a private mountain property with room to create something meaningful. Imagine mornings by the pond, evenings in the pasture, trails through the woods, cabins tucked into the trees, a garden near the creek, livestock in the field, guests gathering by the barn, or a future mountain home placed perfectly to take in the view. Whether your dream is a private estate, income-producing retreat, wedding or event concept, mini-farm, family compound, or legacy property to hold for generations, this Mars Hill acreage gives you the canvas. Convenient to Mars Hill University, Wolf Laurel, skiing, hiking, rafting, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville dining and medical services, and East Tennessee amenities, the location is one of the property’s strongest advantages. You can feel away from it all while still being connected to everything that makes Western North Carolina so desirable. Properties with this combination of unrestricted acreage, pasture, water features, barn, buildable land, existing home, mountain setting, and convenient location are increasingly hard to find. This is not just a listing—it is an opportunity to own a true Appalachian legacy property with room for your vision to grow. Dream big. Build bold. Bring your plans. This one is special.

Whether you’re dreaming of a private estate, working farm, homestead, equestrian property, compound, or development project, this stunning property offers the versatility and natural beauty to bring your vision to life. This is your chance to own pristine mountain land with exceptional potential. Gently rolling pastures transition to steeper, wooded areas, offering a dynamic mix of open, usable space and forested terrain. The majority of the property is fenced (barbed-wired) and hot-wired, ideal for livestock or equestrian use. Currently used as a cattle ranch, the land is turn-key ready for agricultural pursuits or can easily be repurposed for recreation, conservation, or residential development. Multiple potential homesites dot the landscape, including locations at higher elevations with panoramic, long-range views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Rough roads/trails are already in place leading to the top of the property, where the views are absolutely breathtaking—perfect for a future dream home or cabin. A spring on the land currently supplies water to the existing home, adding to the property's self-sufficient appeal. There’s also logging potential for those interested in timber resources. The 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath house offers flexibility. It can be renovated to your taste, used as temporary housing while you build, or kept as a guest home. A covered front porch invites you to relax and take in the surrounding beauty. A new septic system (2023), and newer roof (2018) and windows (2017), add to the value. Additional features include an idyllic, large barn that was once used for tobacco, and a tractor shed. The possibilities here are nearly limitless. Don’t miss your chance to explore all that this incredible property has to offer. Ten minutes to downtown Marshall and the grocery store, 30 minutes to downtown Asheville. The home, additional structures, and land are being sold as-is.
