Discover a rare opportunity to own +/- 53.6 acres of unrestricted mountain land in a highly desirable area near Franklin, NC. This beautiful tract features cleared logging roads and hiking trails, making it easy to explore. A new survey with flagged boundary lines provides immediate value and cost savings for the next owner.

Creeks and natural springs attract abundant wildlife and property adjoins over 50,000 acres of US Forest Service land, allowing endless opportunities for hiking, hunting and recreation. With no Restrictions, no Zoning, and no HOA, the possibilities are wide open: private mountain estate, hunting retreat, campground, barndominium or vacation rentals. Easy year-round access from a paved, state-maintained road and conveniently located just 1 mile from the Appalachian Trail at Winding Stair Gap, 4 miles to Standing Indian Campground and 12 miles to Franklin.
