Remarks:

Perched in a gorgeous mountain setting with sweeping views, this 3 bed/2 bath home offers the kind of peace and quiet most people only dream about — yet you're right outside the charming town of Old Fort, 20 minutes from Black Mountain, and 35 minutes from downtown Asheville. Waterfalls, hiking, breweries, galleries, live music — all of it when you want it, none of it when you don't. The front porch alone is worth the drive. Morning coffee with a panoramic sunrise. Evening wine as the ridgelines turn gold. The separate studio is perfect for artists, musicians, or a private guest retreat — and with septic lines already in place, a future permanent buildout is a very real possibility. The above ground pool is a bonus everyone will love, and the 3-car garage/barn adds serious practicality. The open pasture land is as buildable as it gets — there's even a second building site with a 3-bedroom septic already installed. Family compound, tiny home community, wellness retreat — the infrastructure is here. The canvas is yours. Real views. Real acreage. Real quiet. Real proximity to one of the most vibrant small cities in the country. Opportunities like this don't come around often. Call today. *Property is being surveyed, and will likely be larger than the listed acreage when complete.
