Description
Nestled on 10 beautiful acres in a charming college town, this well-maintained ranch-style home offers the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access—just 20 minutes to Asheville and 10 minutes to Marshall, and only 3 miles from I-26.
The property is ideal for horses, farming, or gardening, with a serene setting surrounded by the natural beauty of Western North Carolina. Enjoy close proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Appalachian Trail, skiing, golf, and whitewater rafting—making this an exceptional opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts.
The home features numerous thoughtful upgrades, including a new roof (2020), a beautifully remodeled kitchen (2025) with quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances (gas range, refrigerator, microwave), and an updated bathroom (2024). Additional improvements include an encapsulated crawl space with foundation inspection (2025), a whole-home Generac generator, and a well installed in 2021.
Inside, you’ll find heart of pine floors, slate tile, solid wood interior doors, and plantation shutters throughout, creating a warm and timeless feel. Outdoor living is a highlight, featuring a spacious deck perfect for entertaining, along with a gazebo, hot tub, firepit, and outdoor shower. A natural spring on the property provides an additional water source for the home alongside the well.
An outbuilding with electricity and a large front porch adds even more versatility and charm to this unique property.
A Home for you! A place where you can create memories, host family, friends and build community relationships!
