Property Description

Step back in time and discover the charm of this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat, nestled on 9.75 deeded acres of unrestricted land just 10 minutes from downtown Waynesville. Bordering the Waynesville water reservoir lands and featuring a bold, year-round creek, this peaceful property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience—with the added benefit of city water. Originally built in 1948, this inviting mountain home is filled with vintage character and has been thoughtfully expanded over the years. The original two-bedroom, one-bath home was complemented by a two-bedroom, one-bath addition in 1985, creating flexible living spaces while preserving its nostalgic appeal. Warm wood details, abundant natural light, and a beautiful stone fireplace create a cozy atmosphere that reflects the home's mountain heritage. Recent updates, including a new roof in 2016 and new electrical service in 2026, provide peace of mind while leaving plenty of opportunity to restore, renovate, or simply embrace its classic charm. Outside, the possibilities are endless. Raised garden beds are ready for your next growing season, while two barns offer incredible versatility. One features a weatherproofed upper level perfect for a workshop, studio, storage, or hobbies, with a lower-level carport beneath. The second barn is ready for new life or could provide a treasure trove of reclaimed barnwood for future rustic projects. Spend your days listening to the soothing sounds of the bold creek, exploring nearly 10 acres of mountain land, or relaxing on the porch swing as you take in the peaceful views. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or a property with room to create your own vision, this vintage mountain homestead offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Western North Carolina's history just minutes from the shops, restaurants, and charm of downtown Waynesville.
