27 +/- UNRESTRICTED acres of glorious mountain views and privacy, extending from the convenience of a paved dead-end road up to a plateau at about 3200 ft. Reclamation of this old homestead is well underway! Be the king or queen of your very own mountain -- watch the drone video from 2023 and see the epic views! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nfe93h0jyBY The parcel has an old cabin and an electrical junction box with power already in place. The cabin has a new metal roof and windows and interior renovation has begun. The electric is on at the property but not yet connected back to the old cabin. The parcel also has a new Amish-built mini-A frame and a built-out shed for additional flexibility. Follow an old road past multiple springs and creeks up to a flat build site on the ridge with heavenly 270 degree ridgeline views to the south and west. The parcel was virtually untouched by the hurricane and many old growth hardwoods are scattered throughout, including one giant old chestnut tree next to the old cabin. The old springbox system is being rehabbed and the septic permitting process is underway. For adventure, head down to fish or float the majestic Toe River, which is only 5 minutes away. Thousands of acres of the Pisgah National Forest are close by, as is a gorgeous stretch of the Appalachian Trail. Although you will feel worlds away on this private parcel, Burnsville and Bakersville are only 20 minutes away for groceries, restaurants, shopping and the arts, while Asheville NC and Johnson City TN are about 60 minutes away. And for everyday sundries, iconic Griffith's Store is only 5 minutes away -- get your gardening supplies and advice, and chat with your neighbors!
