For Sale $746,000
Far enough out for peace and privacy—but close enough to city life when you need it! Nestled near the NC/SC line, this one-of-a-kind property at 3540 Fork Creek Road offers the perfect blend of accessibility and serenity. Enjoy the best of both Carolinas—minutes to downtown Saluda, Tryon, and Landrum—with easy access to Greenville or Asheville for day trips, dining, and adventure. Set on nearly 4.4 acres of rare, level land, this custom-built home radiates craftsmanship and soul. Designed and constructed by its original owner, a master woodworker, every corner showcases pride and precision—from the soaring wood ceilings to the hand-built doors and trim. Natural light pours through the living spaces, illuminating the warmth of the wood finishes and the character that only a true artisan’s touch can create. The open kitchen overlooks a peaceful meadow framed by mature trees—ideal for gardeners, families, or anyone craving open space without sacrificing convenience. Cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace on crisp Carolina evenings or step outside to breathe in mountain air that feels a world away from city noise. A massive detached workshop—formerly the owner’s woodworking studio—provides endless potential. Whether you dream of a creative workspace, car enthusiast’s garage, or converting it to an equestrian setup, this property makes it possible. The flat topography and wide-open pasture areas are practically unheard of in Saluda’s mountain terrain—perfect for small livestock, paddocks, or a private riding arena. Additional features include an RV hookup, mature landscaping, and wide-open skies for stargazing. You’ll love the balance of privacy and connection—just minutes from downtown Saluda’s art scene, Harmon Field’s outdoor recreation, Green River tubing and kayaking, and some of Western NC’s most beloved hiking and waterfall trails. Whether you’re envisioning a hobby farm, artist’s retreat, or your forever home, this property delivers craftsmanship, convenience, and countryside charm in one remarkable package. Opportunities to own land this level and usable in Saluda are truly rare—don’t let this one pass you by! Call or text for your private showing—your Carolina dream awaits!
