Build a life in Western North Carolina you don't need a vacation from. This one will check all your boxes: 16+ unrestricted acres (No HOA!) lots of privacy, a home with character, a stream, established trails, and plenty of room to live, work, and play. The 2 BR / 2 BA home boasts a versatile bonus room, ideal for a home office or additional bedroom. Three heat sources (heat pump, a new gas-log fireplace, and wood-burning stove) provide year-round comfort. The property features a 24’x31’ (744 SF) workshop with electric and water, plus three additional outbuildings, and a 30-amp RV hookup. More than two acres are cleared with a small stream running through the middle, offering space for gardening, homesteading, or hobby farming, while the additional 14 wooded acres invite you to explore by foot, mountain bike, or ATV. Enjoy your coffee on the front porch while watching the sunrise, and end your evenings back there, listening to the crickets and tree frogs. Surrounded by acres of woods, wildlife is abundant, and peace and privacy are the rule rather than the exception. Rich in local history, the hand-hewn log cabin was once part of an original family homestead and has been lovingly cared for. Family and local historical accounts suggest the cabin dates to the 18th century and may be among the oldest surviving structures in Polk County still standing in its original location. Revel in the feeling of being tucked away without giving up convenience— you're only 10 minutes to Lake Lure and the nearest grocery store, 20 minutes to Chimney Rock or Tryon International Equestrian Center, 20 minutes to Columbus with all its amenities (including a hospital), 35 minutes to Hendersonville, and an hour to Asheville or Greenville. Whether you’re looking for a private mountain retreat, a homestead, room for your hobbies, or simply more space and fewer restrictions, this is a property designed for living life on your own terms. Come experience the privacy, acreage, and possibilities in person - schedule your showing today! Tour the home, walk the trails - this property is a must-see! Seller welcomes all reasonable offers. Owner is a licensed NC Real Estate agent.
