For nearly fifty years, this working farm has been a hidden masterpiece of the Blue Ridge Mountains, reached by a mile-long gravel drive that winds through open pasture, alongside creeks, and beneath towering hardwoods before finally opening to the home. And what a home it is. Custom-built in 1978, the home blends timeless architecture with a level of craftsmanship and character that’s difficult to replicate today. Nearly 2,500 square feet of living space, filled with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, natural stone, and remarkable natural light, gives the home a warmth that balances perfectly with its scale and craftsmanship. At the heart of the home is an enormous double-sided fireplace built from hand-selected local stone, anchoring two separate living areas. The layout was thoughtfully designed, with the primary suite positioned on the main level and two additional bedrooms with a full bath upstairs. Large windows throughout the home frame views of the surrounding farm and mountains in nearly every direction, while newer Pella windows along the northern side of the main level bring even more light into the living spaces. Solid-surface countertops, wide-plank hardwood floors, architectural shingles, a partial basement, an attached two-car garage, and a large rear deck complete the home beautifully. Outside, the estate unfolds across 139 acres of some of Western North Carolina’s most desirable landscape. Approximately 20 acres are established pastureland with partial fencing already in place, while the remainder of the property stretches through mature timber, trails, and multiple creeks flowing through the farm. Several potential building sites throughout the property offer exceptional long-range views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the potential for a family compound, event venue or investment. The farm remains highly functional as well, with a storage and implement barn, large metal garage/storage building, and tractor and hay equipment conveying with the sale. Certain furnishings inside the home will remain too. Properties like this are becoming increasingly rare — not simply because of the acreage, but because of the complete package. A truly custom home with architectural character. Privacy without isolation. Usable land. Water. Views. History. And a setting that feels every bit as special as the home itself. This is the kind of property families hold onto for generations.

Welcome to a place you’ll truly enjoy calling home, and it is priced below the appraised value!! This notably well-cared-for home is perfectly set on a little over 1-acre, providing the rare blend of privacy, room to grow, and effortless comfort. The spacious lot gives you plenty of outdoor options—whether you want a peaceful retreat, a gardening paradise, or space for gatherings with family and friends. Step inside to find a very clean and inviting space, with thoughtful updates and plenty of room to relax or gather with friends. You’ll enjoy entertaining in the large living room or cooking in the spacious kitchen. There are plenty of rooms and closet space, but if you’re in the need for another room, there is an additional room that could be used for a home office and it is part of the attached double garage. And for added peace of mind and accessibility, the home features a long ramp leading to the front porch. Plus, the original stairs are still in place so the ramp could be removed if needed. Outdoors, the amenities are just as impressive. Picture yourself unwinding in your very own gazebo—perfect for reading a book, enjoying a cup of coffee, or sharing laughter with guests. If you have a green thumb or hope to develop one, you’ll love the unique greenhouse that makes it easy to nurture flowers, vegetables, or herbs all year-round. The property is also equipped with a massive 4,000-gallon underground water tank, giving you a reliable and efficient way to keep your garden and grounds lush and green no matter the season. The tank is connected to the home’s gutter system, and for another bonus, there are several yard hydrants spread out on the property. This property is ideal for anyone wanting a calm and welcoming place to call their own. Location is another prime feature of this home. It is just minutes from schools, grocery stores, parks, and playgrounds. The home is just 7 minutes from Historic Downtown Morganton where you’ll find an array of restaurants, shops, pubs, and professional services. Travel 10 minutes in the other direction and you’ll arrive at beautiful Lake James. Lake James covers almost 11 Sq. Miles with 150 miles of shoreline. It is a major recreation destination for boating, hiking, camping, and fishing. Burke Co. has been coined “Nature’s Playground” because of the State Parks/Trails & the thousands of acres of the Pisgah National Forest. This home is in a key location to access all the adventures the area has to offer. Don’t miss the chance to make this special home yours!

So, picture this — 4.22 acres in Little Switzerland, completely un-subdivided, no HOA, no restrictions whatsoever — and sitting on it are two beautifully appointed homes. Now, whether you're thinking multigenerational living, a legacy property for your family, a vacation rental income stream, a 1031 exchange, or simply the most extraordinary personal retreat you've ever owned — this property checks every single box. Both homes have their own Generac propane generators — brand new in 2025, five-year warranties — so when the mountain weather does what mountain weather does, you're completely unfazed. Included with the property — and I love this detail — two UTVs: a 2022 Polaris Ranger Crew and a 2008 Yamaha Rhino with a snow plow and winch. Because on this property, those aren't toys — they're tools. There's a shared well, new in 2024, producing ten gallons per minute of pure mountain water through a full filtration and backwash system. Both homes run Starlink — professionally installed, averaging over 300 Mbps — and high-speed fiber is available locally as well. Now, here's where it gets really special. The land itself has been curated — black walnut and chestnut trees, seven fenced raised-bed vegetable gardens, mature apple, pear, and peach trees, a grape and raspberry orchard. And at the heart of it all is a custom “pub shed” — hemlock and cedar, water and electric, flagstone pavers, a stone fire pit — it's an absolute gathering place. Behind it, a state-of-the-art greenhouse with a misting system and polycarbonate roof for year-round growing. And surrounding everything — a thousand mature lavender plants, beautiful AND functional — they naturally deter pests and wildlife. There's also a section of the property — currently undeveloped — with 180-degree dramatic views of Mount Mitchell and the Black Mountain Range, overlooking a gorgeous lake on the adjoining property. Room for a third home, should someone desire it. The main house — completed in 2004 — is a rustic mountain lodge, three bedrooms, two baths, generous decks, a four-year-old standing seam metal roof. Inside, a Mitsubishi ductless multi-zone heat and air system, two gas log units, vaulted ceilings, wood-paneled walls, granite counters, stainless appliances with a gas range, under-cabinet lighting, and tankless on-demand hot water. A new Seville Classics basement storage system conveys with the sale. The guest house — built in 2023 — is a complete architectural contrast in the best possible way. Contemporary, bright, open — quartz countertops, easy-close cabinetry, one bedroom, one bath, main-level laundry, an office nook, and its own Mitsubishi system. It feels fresh and new because it is fresh and new. And the location — five minutes to Little Switzerland, fifteen to Spruce Pine and Grassy Creek Golf and Country Club, five minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway, thirty minutes to Burnsville, forty minutes to Banner Elk, Beech Mountain, Sugar Mountain — skiing, dining, golf. Thirty minutes to Lake James. An hour to Asheville. An hour to Tri-Cities Airport. Two hours to Charlotte. And here's the line I always come back to — every single time you drive to the post office or the grocery store, you are taking a scenic drive that most people on this planet would have to save a lifetime just to come and visit. That's not a marketing line. That's just the truth.
