For those seeking privacy, acreage, and the freedom to create something truly personal in the mountains of Western North Carolina, this 30+/- unrestricted acre tract offers a rare and exciting opportunity. Offered as a portion of a 33.35+/- acre parcel, the property is privately tucked at the end of the road and bordered on two sides by USFS land, giving it a peaceful, protected feel while remaining approximately 15 minutes from Highlands and 30 minutes from Cashiers. The land unfolds with a private pond, native rhododendron, wooded trails, gentle natural beauty, and several potential homesites where long-range mountain views may be opened with thoughtful tree limbing or clearing. A trail has already been cleared so the property can be toured with ease, allowing you to walk the land, take in the setting, and visit the charming old one-room cabin built when the current owner was a child. The cabin is not livable and is conveyed at no value, but it adds a nostalgic sense of history and character to the property. With no HOA and no restrictions, the possibilities are unusually broad. Create a private mountain retreat designed around the views, develop multiple homesites, establish a quiet compound, enjoy the land for hunting or camping, explore timber or agricultural use, or hold it as a legacy property in a highly desirable mountain market. The combination of acreage, privacy, pond frontage, USFS adjacency, and potential view sites makes this offering especially compelling. Beyond the property, the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau offers a celebrated lifestyle shaped by cool mountain air, outdoor adventure, cultural events, boutique shopping, dining, music, and year-round community gatherings. Spend the day exploring nearby trails and waterfalls, then enjoy Highlands events such as Saturday Music on Pine, Bear Shadow Concerts, and Chamber activities, or Cashiers favorites like Groovin’ on the Green, the Plein Air Festival, and seasonal social events. This is more than land; it is a canvas for an elevated mountain life, with room to dream, build, gather, explore, and preserve.

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.
