Public Remarks Nestled in the foothills of Rutherfordton, North Carolina, this land on Pleasant Grove Road offers approximately 86 acres of unrestricted opportunity—an exceptional canvas for your vision. The land is rich in natural beauty, featuring a clear, meandering creek that brings life and tranquility as it winds through the property. Beyond the creek, a wooded hillside rises gently, where selective clearing could reveal inspiring mountain views and create a dramatic setting for a dream home, event space, or private retreat. This farm is overflowing with potential for agricultural, recreational, or entrepreneurial pursuits. A substantial 40x100 (approx. 4,000 sq. ft.) workshop—complete with an office, three-phase power, and an air compressor that conveys—stands ready to support a wide range of uses. Several barns, sheds, and three 24x110 former poultry houses offer flexible infrastructure for farming, storage, or repurposing into new ventures. The property also includes a cattle barn, and while the farm buildings will need some repairs, they can be restored or cleared to suit your plans. The pasture is currently used for cattle, but livestock will be removed prior to closing. Previously operated as both a poultry farm and a working cattle farm, this land holds the foundation for a productive agricultural operation or a private legacy estate. Its blend of natural features and practical assets makes it a rare investment—one that can nurture dreams, growth, and new beginnings for years to come. Due to the condition of the home, it is considered unsafe to enter.

According to the owner, the original propane furnace is no longer in use, the propane tank has been removed, and the existing ductwork requires repair. Owner currently uses a space heater when he visits in the winter. Because there is currently no functioning permanent heat source, the property is not being marketed as having heated square footage.

Buyers are encouraged to perform their own due diligence regarding flood zone designation, flood insurance requirements, and any future improvements they may wish to make. Due to the property's current condition, including the absence of a permanent heating system, cash or renovation financing may be the most appropriate financing options.

Welcome to Honeycreek Highlands, a rare and versatile 22-acre farm in the Cove Creek area of the High Country, just 15 minutes from Boone. At the heart of the property is a fully renovated 1930s farmhouse surrounded by rolling pasture, fenced paddocks, mountain views, a meandering creek, established gardens, barns, and outbuildings. Currently operated as a small working farm, the property is well-suited for horses, livestock, gardening, homesteading, or simply enjoying the mountain lifestyle. Honeycreek Highlands can be enjoyed as it is today with outstanding long-term potential. With no zoning or deed restrictions, the acreage may lend itself to a multigenerational compound, additional residences, agritourism, or a short-term rental buildout. Several potential homesites are located higher on the property to capture broader mountain views. The farmhouse has undergone extensive renovation, including updated siding, windows, plumbing, electrical service, roof, septic system, and heating/air. A show-stopping kitchen addition completed in 2026 opened the home while preserving the warmth and character of the original structure. The oversized kitchen features vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, large windows, and custom black walnut and hickory countertops crafted from trees that came down on the property during Hurricane Helene, creating a meaningful connection between the home and its land. The spacious layout offers room for a large farmhouse dining table, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Walls of windows overlook the fenced front yard, rolling hills, gardens, and rear paddock. Double doors create a seamless connection to the outdoor living areas and large vegetable garden. An adjacent shed offers future potential as an outdoor pavilion or gathering space. The single-level home includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a new bath added with the recent expansion. Old and new have been thoughtfully blended, while wood paneling and original details preserve timeless farmhouse character. Outdoor living includes two covered front porches and a rear patio area ideal for a hot tub. The entire area around the home is fenced and accessed by an automatic gate, creating a secure space for pets and outdoor recreation. A gentle creek flows along the lower edge of the front yard. The driveway offers ample parking and leads to an oversized two-car carport incorporated into an original barn structure with generous storage. Two additional outbuildings sit near the home, including one improved with reclaimed fence wood and a concrete floor for a future studio, workshop, or creative space. The lower paddock includes a shed, chicken coop, wellhouse, and barn, while the upper fenced paddock provides generous room for horses or other animals. Beyond the established farm areas, the acreage rises toward the ridgeline with wooded terrain and striking rock outcroppings. Tucked near the end of a quaint country road just across from Cove Creek, Honeycreek Highlands feels well-insulated while remaining convenient to Boone, Valle Crucis, Watauga Lake, and destinations throughout the High Country. Rarely does a property offer this combination of usable acreage, farm infrastructure, residential charm, unrestricted potential, convenient access, and immersive natural beauty.

There are mountain homes, and then there are mountain properties that offer the freedom to create a legacy. Set at the end of a quiet road on 33.35+/- unrestricted acres, this exceptional Highlands-area retreat combines breathtaking long-range mountain views, remarkable privacy, and endless possibilities in one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after locations. Surrounded on two sides by U.S. Forest Service land, the property enjoys a rare sense of permanence and seclusion. Rolling woodland, a private pond, natural clearings, and a trail that has already been opened across the larger portion of the acreage invite exploration while revealing the remarkable scale of the land. Several locations throughout the property offer the potential for additional homesites where selective tree limbing or clearing could further enhance the already impressive mountain vistas. At the heart of the property sits a quintessential log cabin that perfectly captures the timeless appeal of mountain living. Warm wood interiors, soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and expansive windows create an inviting atmosphere where natural light and panoramic views become part of the home's design. The dramatic great room serves as a gracious centerpiece for entertaining, equally suited for lively gatherings with friends or peaceful evenings beside the fire after a day spent exploring the mountains. The open kitchen blends beautifully into the living spaces with stainless steel appliances, generous workspace, and effortless flow to the expansive wraparound deck. Extending along three sides of the home, the outdoor living areas offer multiple places to relax, dine, and enjoy the ever-changing mountain landscape. One covered section, complete with a porch swing, provides an idyllic setting for morning coffee, afternoon thunderstorms, or colorful Blue Ridge sunsets. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers three bedrooms and two full baths. Two guest bedrooms, a shared bath, and the laundry room are conveniently located on the main level, while the upper-level primary suite provides a peaceful retreat featuring a newly renovated shower, walk-in closet, abundant attic storage, and a loft workspace overlooking the great room below. The walkout basement adds tremendous flexibility for future expansion. A spacious unfinished area with sliding glass doors opening to the covered patio offers outstanding potential for additional living or recreation space, while a separate workshop with oversized barn-style doors easily accommodates equipment, tools, hobbies, or creative pursuits. With no HOA and no restrictions, this property offers exceptional versatility. Whether envisioning a private family compound, additional residences, a recreational retreat, hiking and camping, hunting, forestry, or simply preserving the land as your own mountain sanctuary, the opportunities are as expansive as the acreage itself.

Tucked away on 30 breathtaking acres in a truly special pocket of the mountains, experience the rare combination of complete seclusion with everyday convenience. This extraordinary property offers a level of privacy that's nearly impossible to find...Yet you're only 4.5 miles from both The Fresh Market in North Asheville and the Weaverville Publix. Just 9 miles from the Patton Ave-Clingman Ave. intersection and all of Asheville's offerings. Cherished by the same owners for the past 42 years, this is more than a home—it's a mountain sanctuary thoughtfully shaped by decades of stewardship. The moment you arrive, the outside world seems to disappear. A gentle babbling brook provides the soundtrack for the kitchen, while incredible natural light fills the home and frames the surrounding landscape. Excellent soil nourishes lovingly cultivated grounds as a living work of art, with lush perennial gardens offering color, texture, and beauty throughout the seasons. Every path, planting, and gathering space reflects decades of intention and care. Two streams flow through the property with one of them harnessed to gravity feed water to the yard and gardens. A spring provides gravity-fed water to the home. Step outside and discover a private trail system that meanders throughout the property, crosses a gentle stream, winds through mature woods, and gradually climbs to the top of the ridge. There, you will find your own private Sunset Summit with expansive views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and French Broad River Valley that stretch to the horizon. Thoughtfully placed benches and swings along the trail invite you to pause, soak in the long-range views and the sounds of nature along with the wildlife that calls this special place home. Inside, a substantial wood-burning stove is capable of heating the entire home, creating an inviting retreat in every season. Whether enjoying a quiet morning with the windows open to the sounds of the creek or watching the sun disappear over the mountains each evening, life here moves at a different pace. For those seeking flexibility, half the house has operated successfully as an Airbnb since 2014, making it equally suited as a full-time residence and an income-producing investment. This is the one-of-a-kind property you've been waiting for!

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Mountain Estate Bordering Pisgah National Forest Privacy. History. Adventure. Possibilities. This is the kind of property that rarely becomes available. Nestled at the end of a quiet country road, this remarkable 14+ acre estate offers complete seclusion while bordering Pisgah National Forest on three sides, creating your own private gateway to thousands of acres of protected wilderness for hiking, horseback riding, hunting, and endless wildlife watching. Beautiful Paxton Creek flows year-round through the property—a true Helene-proven creek—providing a peaceful soundtrack from multiple locations, including the screened porch overlooking the water. The property consists of two residences, multiple outbuildings, fenced pastures, and several exceptional building sites, including one along the historic Wagon Trail where breathtaking 360-degree views of Old Fort Mountain and the surrounding mountain ranges await. The main residence sits on approximately 10 acres and has been thoughtfully designed for both comfort and functionality. Built on an impressive 10-foot Superior Walls foundation system, the semi-finished basement is heated and cooled, providing outstanding additional living or recreation space. The home offers two heating systems, including a brand-new 3-ton heat pump (2025) and a Hot Blast wood-burning furnace ducted throughout the home, giving you efficient year-round comfort with the flexibility of wood heat. Equestrian enthusiasts and homesteaders will appreciate the property's exceptional improvements, including a three-stall barn with grain/tack room, full hay loft with overhang, riding arena perfect for lunging, training, riding, or use as a dry lot, three fenced and cross-fenced pastures, a natural freshwater spring capable of supplying water to the barn, chicken coop, and a charming historic blacksmith shop. A spacious 30' x 30' workshop with side overhang offers covered parking, RV parking with a 50-amp hookup, and endless possibilities for hobbies or equipment storage. Additional amenities include a two-car carport, generator hookup, newer appliances, two picnic areas, and a built-in fire pit perfect for gathering beneath the stars. Adding even more value is the second residence at 662 Paxton Creek Road, situated on approximately four additional acres. Originally built as a log cottage believed to date back to 1841, this historic home has been lovingly preserved, with the current owners being only the fourth family to steward the property in nearly two centuries. Completely remodeled in 2020, the home now offers three bedrooms and two full baths while maintaining its timeless mountain charm. Recent updates include a new well pump (2024), new mini-split system (2025), and an additional propane heater for supplemental warmth. Whether used as a guest house, vacation rental, caretaker's home, or private residence for extended family, it offers incredible flexibility. Whether you're dreaming of a private equestrian estate, a self-sufficient homestead, a multi-generational family compound, or simply a peaceful mountain sanctuary unlike anything else on the market, this extraordinary property delivers. With unmatched privacy, abundant wildlife, flowing water, National Forest boundaries, historic character, and room to grow, this is more than a home—it's a legacy property that will be treasured for generations.

Some mountain properties have views, others offer water, usable land, or an easy drive to town. This one has all four and that combination is what makes it genuinely rare in Western North Carolina. Approximately 20+/- acres of open, rolling pasture unfold beneath mountain views in every direction. A creek-fed pond of roughly 1.5 acres sits near the center, while more than 2,000 feet of Bolens Creek forms the south boundary with full water access. Enjoy quiet mornings on the covered porch as mist rises from the pond, and evenings filled with the sound of the creek, wildlife in the fields, and summer fireflies. Despite the peaceful setting, downtown Burnsville is only four minutes away, the grocery store is two minutes away, and Asheville is approximately forty minutes away. At the center of the property is a custom timber frame home completed in 2024. Deep red cedar siding, a cupola, and a long covered front porch create a memorable exterior. Inside, cathedral tongue-and-groove pine ceilings, exposed timber posts and beams, oversized windows, and iron ring chandeliers create a bright, warm living space. The navy kitchen features a farmhouse apron sink, six-burner gas range, cedar sliding barn door, and walk-in pantry. Designed with both comfort and quality in mind, the home includes no-VOC ECOS stains and finishes, Greenguard Gold-certified flooring, spray foam insulation, whole-home water filtration, a whole-home generator, tankless water heater, underground 1,000-gallon propane tank, and Charter high-speed fiber. The home offers three bedrooms, one full bath, and one half bath. The primary suite includes a premium stone soaking tub and walk-in closet. The lower level includes an oversized bedroom with tall ceilings and a large walk-in closet, a second bedroom, and a spacious flex room ideal for homeschooling, an office, studio, or playroom. The rear covered porch overlooks the pond and pastures and includes two infrared heaters for year-round enjoyment. For equestrian or homestead use, the property is truly turnkey. Connected to the home is a fully finished, insulated barn with six European-style stalls, Nelson automatic waterers, heated wash bay, generous tack room, Dutch doors to pasture, and a picture window overlooking the stall aisle from the living area. The land is fenced and cross-fenced with in-ground pasture waterers, run-in shelters, and frost-free hydrants. An established orchard includes 27 fruit trees, including apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, plums, and apricots. The organically managed homestead also includes an enclosed raised-bed garden, two chicken coops with solar automatic doors, garden shed, children’s playscape, and covered sandbox. A substantial pole barn provides a concrete-floored main building, enclosed lean-tos, three overhead doors including a 16-foot RV-height door, conditioned flex rooms, workshop, spacious loft, and 220V service. In a scenic spot above the pond, a separate 16-by-24 schoolhouse is heated, cooled, and filled with windows, offering flexible space for a homeschool room, office, studio, or guest retreat. This is a rare property that ends the compromise. The views without isolation. The land without the impracticality. The privacy without the long drive to town. Whether your vision is horses, homesteading, room to breathe, or simply waking up to the Blue Ridge every morning, it was built with intention and obvious love, and it shows even better in person than in photographs.
