Over 11 acres conveniently located in the City limits of Marion! A house with this much acreage in town is simply not easy to find and, yet, here it is...located on N. Main St or what locals refer to as "the 5-lane;" the main corridor through the City of Marion. Currently, in use by a local non-profit, this location was previously a Chiropractor's office. The property contains four (4) separate parcels with over 770' of road frontage; one (1) large land parcel, two (2) small land parcels (0.09 of an acre each), and the house is on 0.53 of an acre. The house has two bedrooms and a bonus room (currently used as a bedroom) which has its own outside access onto the porch/deck. Ceiling fixtures such as large medallions and a gorgeous chandelier with high ceilings and large crown molding give the spaces a dramatic yet classic feel. The exposed brick with an electric fireplace in the entry welcome all who come with a cozy atmosphere as do the hardwood floors through-out the main portion of the house. Small yet sufficient, the kitchen also offers access from the outside. The refrigerator and stove convey as do the washer and dryer in the spacious laundry room. While the home offers adequate space there is also room for big dreams of a possible 2nd home atop the larger tract which, with some clearing, could boast of scenic views of the northern mountains. If another homesite is not what your heart desires, then consider a short-term rental with a private trail system running through-out the property to appeal to the growing hiking/biking community of visitors to the County or simply keep it as your backyard playground; future expansion of the Fonta Flora State Trail is proposed to occur along this roadway. A small complex of townhomes or apartments could also be positioned on the higher elevations of the property to provide many with a view to call home. No matter the path the future owner decides to take, the road that leads there already exists, but will require additional work to sustain any traffic outside of personal use. The old roadbed to access the acreage is not located on the subject property, however, there is an existing 12' right-of-way along the road, is in good condition, and currently used by ATV to maintain the property. A small branch/creek running along the roadbed (also on the adjacent property) offers visual interest as well as a small waterfall and rock formations, before ultimately crossing onto the parcel containing the house.

Designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings, this home is a triumph of organic luxury, positioned perfectly to capture the sweeping mountain vistas. Offering en-suite bedrooms on each of the 3 levels including a large primary suite on the main floor, there's tons of privacy for visiting family & friends. The great room is centered around the rugged stone fireplace while the vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows invites you to enjoy mountain views from every corner. The spacious kitchen has gorgeous maple cabinets, Vermont Soapstone countertops and stainless KitchenAid appliances including a gas cooktop with pot-filler and exhaust hood. The ample mud room, which offers a stainless pet bath and washer/dryer hookup, leads to a detached 2-car garage which is fully insulated & has pull-down attic storage. The loft, overlooking the great room, has a convenient nook, perfect for a home office or library, and a guest bedroom w/ walk-in closet and dedicated bathroom. The basement is beautifully finished with a second large family room and additional guest bedroom and full bath. There are 2 utility rooms - one with washer/dryer hookups and one currently being used as a craft room/office. The basement opens to an oversized concrete patio w/ stone accents - the perfect setting for a hot tub or fire pit. The partially fenced-in yard is lovingly landscaped with a wide variety of flowers, shrubs, and spices. A key feature of this property is its seclusion from the community roads and surrounding neighbors. There are very few homes in the Grandview Peaks community that offer this amount of privacy, surrounded completely by nature. Within walking distance, you'll find the man-made community lake and pavilion - ideal for soaking up the sun, picnicking with friends, or fishing for rainbow trout and smallmouth bass. Grandview Peaks is a very active and friendly neighborhood - with weekly gatherings and dozens of social groups, it won't take long to make friends here who quickly become like family. Marion & Morganton, just a short drive away, offer all the charm that the small towns of NC are famous for. Shopping, entertainment, healthcare and endless outdoor adventure are just minutes away. Come see this exceptional property in person and discover how serene and rewarding mountain living can be!

There's a particular quiet to this piece of land, the kind that makes you pause for a moment just to take it all in. It sits in an established, peaceful area of Old Fort, with mountain views and a natural spring running through it. The property is unrestricted, free to build it your way, without layers of restrictions to work around. Build the home you've actually been picturing, on your own timeline, and your own terms. Mornings here might mean coffee on the porch with the mountains still waking up. Evenings might mean nothing but crickets and the sound of that spring running nearby. It's the kind of land that doesn't ask much of you, just gives you the space to figure out what you want to build on it. With two access points and existing trails already winding through the property, you can start exploring the land right away. And despite the quiet, you're only 4 miles from the interstate, close enough for an easy commute, far enough to forget it's there. The seller's offering a $1,500 concession toward closing costs or prepaid expenses, which takes a little of the sting out of getting started. If you've been looking for land that feels less like a transaction and more like a decision you'll be glad you made in ten years, I truly believe this is it.

A rare Lake James opportunity in the sought-after Old Wildlife Club community—159 Osprey Roost Drive offers 1.25 acres of pristine waterfront living, a deeded boat slip a short walk away through the community, and the infrastructure already in place for future expansion.

The existing cabin features one bedroom and one full bath upstairs, as well as an upstairs loft, plus an additional bedroom and half bath downstairs.

Additional features include a 30-amp RV hookup with hot tub service already in place, radon mitigation system, monitored alarm system, and an active termite bond for added peace of mind. Sold turnkey and including both indoor and outdoor furnishings, this property is ready to enjoy immediately—whether as a private lake escape, future dream home site, or investment opportunity. Adding to the privacy, the adjacent 4-acre parcel belongs to the Old Wildlife Club community, helping preserve the natural buffer and giving the property a tucked-away feel. Ownership also includes membership access to Camp Lake James, offering resort-style amenities including swimming pool, fitness center, pickleball courts, paddling access, gathering spaces, and on-site dining options exclusively available to community members and guests. This is a truly unique chance to secure pristine Lake James waterfront property with valuable infrastructure, privacy, amenities, and future potential already in place. **Also Listed as Land - See MLS# 4388744 **

They don't make land like this any more! I am excited to offer up such an exceptional 3.82 ACRE TRACT on one of the most beautiful stretches of CROOKED CREEK! OVER 800 FEET of DIRECT FRONTAGE and with a road right down to the water's edge! Plenty of nice buildable ground that sits out of the reach of floodwaters. The opposite bank of the creek makes for a great view, with a vertical rock face and steep woods. It lends to a very private setting. This side is definitely the one you want though, easily walkable along the entire length of the creek with sandy beeches and areas of beautiful river rock and boulders. It's also hard to beat the location. Only a 5 minute drive to hop on I-40, so you could quickly be in Black Mountain or Asheville to enjoy a tasty dinner out. That is if you ever want to leave. I didn't. I spent way too much time at this place while I was taking pictures, and really wished I had brought a lawn chair to plop down in out in the water. The sound of a rushing creek just soothes the soul. Check out the video to hear it for yourself. Power is on site, and this place is ready to be enjoyed, so get out and take a look. You'll be hard pressed to find anything like it. It truly is a gem!
