About This Home

Discover the perfect blend of peaceful country living and convenient access to Asheville, Brevard, and Hendersonville. Six parcels make up this multi generational 59 +/- acre parcel. It is just minutes from the Turkey Pen entrance of Pisgah National Forest—an outdoor lover’s paradise with hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking right at your doorstep.

Approximately 20+ acres are gentle and level terrain. Whether you're envisioning a private estate, equestrian retreat, or working farm, this land offers the freedom to bring your vision to life. Enrolled in both the Wildlife Conservation Land Program and the Present-Use Value Program, the property also provides valuable tax deferment benefits.

At its center sits a well-maintained brick ranch home, surrounded by open fields perfect for grazing, riding, or future home sites. A peaceful pond adds to the charm, offering a serene place to unwind and soak in the natural beauty. Multiple potential building sites.

Ideal for a family estate or homesteading and farming.
