Tucked against Blue Ridge Parkway land, this 2.87-acre sanctuary offers the ultimate blend of total privacy, natural serenity, and ultimate convenience-just 10 minutes from daily shopping and 15 minutes from downtown Asheville. Direct trail access connects you straight to the NC Mountains-to-Sea Trail, surrounded by pristine wilderness and abundant wildlife, from wild turkeys and deer to black bears. The home harmonizes beautifully with its environment, featuring a natural wood exterior, light-filled open living space with vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a cozy wood-burning stove. Unwind on the front or rear decks overlooking lush woods and a babbling tributary of Upper Grassy Branch Creek (with zero Helene flooding or damage). Complete with a sauna, woodshed, and a flexible bonus room with its own private exterior entrance-ideal for a home office, creative studio, or guest space-this turnkey mountain retreat is also versatile enough for short- or long-term rentals. Opportunity knocks-schedule your tour today!
