Some places ask nothing of you but your presence. This is one of those places. Tucked into 21 private acres along one of the area's beautiful and quietly kept corridors, this 2014 Jade Mountain home sits where the Crabtree valley folds into the edge of the Great Smokies, with long-range mountain views, a living stream with waterfalls and a stillness that settles over you the moment you arrive. The home itself was built with a reverent relationship to the land it occupies. Locust, black walnut and slippery elm harvested directly from the property move through the structure as posts, ceilings, staircases, cabinetry and trim, giving every room warmth and specificity that cannot be manufactured or sourced from a catalog. These are not accent pieces. They are the bones of the home, and they carry the particular beauty of wood that was standing on this hillside before the first shovel broke ground. The loft draws the eye upward into those same timbers, the staircase rises through them, and the kitchen cabinets carry the same quiet continuity throughout. Stained glass doors, interior trim, decking, and railings all speak the same material language, grounded, organic and unmistakably of this place. Light fills the open interior generously, moving through the home the way it moves through a well-placed window in late afternoon, warm, directional and alive. Low-VOC finishes throughout mean the interior environment is as clean and considered as the land surrounding it, the kind of air quality that registers not as a feature but as a feeling, one you notice clearly the first time you take a deep breath and realize how rarely you do that indoors. Outside, the land produces abundantly. A thriving orchard yields Asian pears, persimmons, pawpaws, blueberries, Juneberries, grapes, mulberry and more across seasons. Organic biodynamic raised beds and a dedicated greenhouse extend the growing season and the possibilities well beyond what the calendar might suggest. No pressure-treated lumber touches the garden, and locust and cypress frame the beds just as they frame the home. The 21 acres themselves are a layered habitat, creek hollows sheltering ramps, medicinals and mushrooms, open hillsides running with blackberries and raspberries in summer, ridgelines opening to Smoky Mountain views that shift with every season and every hour. Running through it all, a mountain stream with waterfalls, the kind of constant, living sound that becomes part of your daily rhythm. The infrastructure beneath all of this is equally intentional. The well taps into cool, cold mountain water that tested pristine across every primary and secondary EPA metal. Energy independence is not a goal here but a delivered reality as a 3.95-kilowatt solar array of 10 Tesla panels feeds two Tesla Powerwalls providing 27kWh of battery storage. The home carries a certified HERS Index of 59 before the solar contribution is even factored in, supported by two high-efficiency Mitsubishi mini-split heat pumps, passive solar orientation and a continuous fresh air ventilation system. All boulders on the property were sourced on site. The exterior trim is cypress, finished with a natural penetrating stain that never needs to be redone. Every detail, visible and invisible, reflects the same commitment to doing things properly and doing them once. Additional build sites on the property offer future possibilities for those who want to grow into the land over time. Waynesville, with its award-winning restaurants, galleries and vibrant small-city culture, is just a few miles away. Asheville is a comfortable 30-minute drive. But with waterfalls, endless views, sustainable harvest and a home that has been designed from the ground up to give back as much as it takes, the pull outward is easy to resist. This is rare. A property with genuine spirit, built by people who understood exactly what they were doing and why. For the buyer who has been searching for something that feels alive, welcome home.

Lindsay–Tatum–Wyatt House (c. 1876) — Fully Restored Historic Riverfront Estate A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Rowan County and South River history: the Lindsay–Tatum–Wyatt House, circa 1876, now fully restored. Built by John “Captain Jack” Lindsay, this two-story wood-frame 'centennial' home remains remarkably close to its original footprint. The home features a lovely pierced wood railing wrapping the 34' front porch, along with original eave brackets and unusual decorative ornamentation—details that reflect extraordinary pride in workmanship. The house, situated on the southeast side of the South Yadkin (South River) with approximately 1,600 feet of river frontage, follows an L-shaped plan with a center hallway. The property includes a historic 1,173 sq. ft. original bathhouse overlooking a sandy beach area below at the river—a popular bathing and picnic spot in the late 1800s. This jaw-dropping rustic space showcases open-span design, exposed truss ceilings, and a porch with seasonal river views. The bathhouse historically served double duty as a Mason's lodge and beach house, making it extremely rare as it is beautiful. Only a septic repair permit is on file with the County, and it does not state size of tank, therefore, the capacity of the system can not be verified. Circa 2017-2019, the home received sensitive restoration and permitted major updates, including but not limited to: New Kitchen with granite countertops, dual-fuel range, farmhouse sink and custom cabinetry; New Bathrooms; New Electrical service; New Plumbing and HVAC; original wide heart-of-pine floors throughout; Gas Fireplaces with remote control. The home is designed with a flexible layout and guest-ready space, with TWO primary suites: one on the first floor, and a truly stunning, second-floor primary suite that includes its own private sitting room with exposed brick fireplace—a perfect retreat. You'll note original shiplap walls and ceilings in many of the rooms. In the living room and upstairs ensuite sitting room, the shiplap walls are unpainted and stained to a warm glow. Accents like exposed brick behind the kitchen stove and at the upstairs bath are unique features of the house. The two-car garage has been thoughtfully converted into a boutique floral shop, complete with a dog-wash station and a mini-split HVAC system. The property also includes a barn with 8 stalls, a tack room/utility room, permanent stairs to a hayloft, and solar panels installed on the roof. Additional Property Notes: This property is approximately 18 acres (much of this is floodplain) along the river, with the house and garage safely on higher ground, above the flood zone. The property adjoins state game land for an added buffer. The neighboring property has a private airfield.

Nearly 50 acres of unrestricted mountain land in Mars Hill, NC - with underground power, private road access, long-range mountain views, and major improvements already in place. This rare West Yancey County tract offers the kind of opportunity buyers search for but rarely find: privacy, elevation, usability, infrastructure, and location, all just minutes from I-26, Hatley Pointe Mountain Resort, and Wolf Laurel Country Club. Located on Windy Gap Road near the Madison/Yancey County line, this 49.38-acre tract sits in a highly desirable mountain corridor between Asheville, NC and Johnson City, TN. Whether you are looking for a private mountain estate, family compound, vacation rental retreat, recreational property, investment tract, development opportunity, or off-grid homestead, this property gives you the freedom to bring your vision to life. With no restrictions, no HOA, and no city taxes, the possibilities are wide open. What sets this property apart from typical raw mountain land is the value already built in. A private gravel road is in place, giving access through the property, and underground power runs along the road corridor. Those are costly, time-consuming improvements that can make a major difference when evaluating mountain acreage. Multiple potential homesites offer breathtaking mountain and winter views, with a mix of hilly, rolling, sloped, and level areas throughout the tract. This is property has that true Western North Carolina mountain feel buyers are looking for. The location is another major advantage. Enjoy the peace and privacy of a large mountain tract while still being approximately 5 miles from I-26 and about 9 miles from Hatley Pointe Mountain Resort, formerly Wolf Laurel. Hatley Pointe has brought renewed energy to the area with skiing, dining, mountain recreation, and a growing resort atmosphere. Nearby Wolf Laurel Country Club adds even more lifestyle appeal with golf, mountain views, and established community amenities in the surrounding area. This is the kind of location that works for a second home, short-term rental concept, private retreat, or long-term land investment. The property is also in Yancey County, outside city limits, with no zoning, giving buyers additional flexibility for residential, recreational, agricultural, timber, development, tree farm, or private estate use. Timber was logged over 20 years ago, offering potential present and future timber value. The existing road is currently maintained in connection with access to the upper tract/cell tower area, which benefits access and helps preserve the road corridor over time. From sunrise views and wooded trails to future cabins, estate homes, tiny homes, glamping sites, vacation rentals, or a private mountain sanctuary, this tract has the scale and setting to support something special. Large acreage near Mars Hill, Hatley Pointe, Wolf Laurel, I-26, Asheville, and the Tennessee border continues to be increasingly hard to find, especially with underground utilities and road access already in place. This is more than land. It is a chance to own a piece of the Blue Ridge Mountains with privacy, infrastructure, views, flexibility, and long-term potential. Bring your boots, your vision, and your imagination - this mountain tract is ready for its next chapter.
