IMPROVED PRICE! Dreaming of a mountain cabin on the water with plenty of room for a garden and room for a few rental units for extra money? Want convenience to shopping, restaurants, schools and paved road access? How about all of that and water, sewer, state maintained roads? This is your opportunity! Exceptional river frontage property offering in the mountains of western North Carolina! This level 1.67 acre parcel with a cabin overlooking the river features 400 feet of frontage on the beautiful Tuckaseegee River, popularly referred to as "The Tuck". Featured as a primary river for rainbow trout dry fly fishing, the Tuck is a year round outdoor recreation destination. Ideally positioned in Dillsboro area on North River Road (NCSR 1359) and just off US23/441, the primary north/south roading leading from Atlanta to Cherokee, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Asheville area. Dillsboro is the intersection of 23/441 and US 74, the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway. The property's location combines easy accessibility with privacy in a scenic setting along the river but features water and sewer served by the Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer with four (4) taps in place. The parcel's flat topography, expansive river frontage and generous road frontage creates a compelling canvas for a boutique lodge, riverfront nursery, curated short-term rental concept or private estate. The choices are unlimited. While the property adjoins both of the towns of Dillsboro and Sylva, there is no zoning, allowing a broad range of residential options and affordability with no municipal taxes! Present uses of the property include a park model rental which has produced a substantial income in a modified short term rental (3 months and longer). The owners have a two bedroom, two bath cabin overlooking the river and features a covered porch with hot tub overlooking the river. The river frontage area has been terraced down to the river and is included in the flood plain but the great majority of the property is high enough not to be in the food plain. Hurricane Helene's heavy rains brought the water level up and into the terraced areas but did not encroach onto the level parts of the parcel! Opportunies offering this combination of infrastructure, road and river frontage, location and flexibility along the Tuckaseegee River are rare and this presents both a lifestyle asset and a compelling long-term investment.

The home has been lovingly and completely transformed from top to bottom, allowing the next fortunate owner to simply unpack, exhale, and settle into peace of mind without a single project lingering on the horizon. Spanning more than five expansive acres—most of which are beautifully level and ready for your dreams—the land unfolds with generous usability and freedom. Being unrestricted, it welcomes a motorhome, RV, workshop, or whatever vision you hold for your private sanctuary. Inside, the three-bedroom, two-bath residence feels refreshingly modern and light-filled, wrapped in fresh sheetrock and a soothing, updated neutral color palette that invites calm. The bathrooms glow with clean tile work, while the kitchen boasts elegant granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and sleek, energy-efficient appliances that make everyday living effortless and delightful. Outside, the durable Hardboard siding, architectural shingles, and crisp new gutters ensure lasting beauty and protection, complemented by a spacious wraparound deck that beckons you to linger. Imagine beginning your mornings with a warm cup of coffee as the mountain breeze carries the soothing melody of the creek and waterfall just steps away, creating a meditative backdrop for reflection, reading, or simply being present. Though it feels wonderfully secluded and immersed in nature’s embrace, convenience is never far—less than a minute to Highway 74, five minutes to the majestic Blue Ridge Parkway, fifteen minutes to the charming towns of Sylva or Waynesville, and only forty minutes to vibrant Asheville. This is more than a house on land with water features; it is a true sanctuary where the rhythm of the creek aligns with the quiet rhythms of a life well-lived, offering both escape and effortless connection to the best of Western North Carolina’s mountains.
