A truly unique opportunity awaits the next owner of this exquisite 129 acre mountain estate, located 30 minutes from all that Asheville has to offer, and only ten minutes to Downtown Marshall. Nestled in an area of large tract legacy farms, the home offers panoramic long range views of pasture and pond, dense forest and Blue Ridge Mountain ridgelines, while providing state-of-the-art technology sought by today’s discerning buyers. A RARE FIND INDEED! Perched midrange on the property, the magnificent family home was completely rebuilt by the present owners in 2024. The thoughtful attention to detail in the reimagining of this home cannot be under-estimated. Entrance into the home draws the eye through an inviting contemporary living area and adjacent four season room to the views of the land’s Meadow/Pasture, Pond & Entrance, rendering a remarkable harmony between landscape and interiors of the home. The graciously designed living and dining areas blend seamlessly with the kitchen, a highly functional work of art, with abundant custom cabinetry and woodwork and a stunning quartzite-topped center island. The main level primary en-suite offers a flex ante room (office) and private deck. The lower level of the home, with a second large living area, boasts a wet bar and opens to a large screen porch with sweeping views of the terrain. Two bedrooms and a full bath also occupy this level. Trex decks surround three sides of the home. More than a home, this is a sanctuary. This extraordinary contemporary retreat offers a rare opportunity to experience a life of complete peace, privacy, and connection with nature. Wake each morning to the gentle chorus of songbirds, breathe in the fresh country air, and enjoy the tranquility that only a landscape this expansive can provide. As the day fades, spectacular sunsets give way to an unspoiled night sky where countless stars shine with breathtaking clarity—a nightly reminder of the beauty that surrounds you. Whether you're sipping coffee on the deck, exploring your own private acreage, or simply listening to the breeze through the trees, every moment here invites you to slow down and savor the serenity. Magical, peaceful, and wonderfully secluded, this is a home where the stresses of everyday life melt away. Properties that combine striking contemporary architecture with this level of natural beauty, privacy, and acreage are exceptionally rare. This is more than a destination—it's a lifestyle and a legacy waiting to be enjoyed. A second living space, the original homestead, is separated from the main residence. It has been reframed and reroofed and awaits interior buildout at buyer’s election. Plans are available to complete this structure as a guest home. Management of this tract of land benefits from the owner’s affiliation with EcoForesters, a non-profit professional forestry organization working with private owners to conserve and restore Appalachian forests. Details of this benefit to maintenance of the land are available for consideration. A review of the attached “Features” details this exceptional estate, which must be seen and experienced to capture the essence of this remarkable opportunity. It is my pleasure to arrange a visit to this spectacular estate for your buyers.

Unrestricted WNC acreage with a pond, barn, pasture, wooded build sites, and mountain views - this is the kind of property buyers search years to find. Tucked in the mountains of Mars Hill, just minutes from I-26, the Tennessee/North Carolina line, downtown Mars Hill, and within an easy drive to Asheville and Johnson City, this rare property offers the perfect blend of privacy, accessibility, and possibility. Set on 19.16 acres per deed/GIS, the land is a beautiful mix of open pasture, rolling meadow, wooded acreage, creek frontage, and usable spaces that invite big vision. Multiple potential build sites are tucked throughout the wooded acreage and open land, offering options for a future primary residence, guest cabins, a family compound, hobby farm, retreat property, or short-term rental concept. The landscape gives you the privacy buyers want without feeling isolated, and the setting delivers that unmistakable Appalachian charm - pasture, water, woods, mountain air, and room to breathe. The classic red barn anchors the property and creates an incredible focal point. Use it for storage, animals, equipment, a workshop, creative studio, or explore future possibilities such as an event space, wedding venue, gathering barn, or rustic retreat feature, subject to county approvals and permits. With no known restrictions, the property opens the door to ideas that many mountain properties simply cannot offer. Bring the horses, goats, chickens, gardens, bees, tractors, tools, or business vision. This is a property that can evolve with you. The existing home offers immediate use while you dream, plan, build, renovate, expand, or simply enjoy the land as it is. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a sunroom, wood floors, stone and tile details, and a peaceful setting, it has the character of an old mountain homestead and the flexibility to serve as a primary residence, weekend getaway, rental, caretaker’s cottage, or basecamp while developing the rest of the acreage. A private pond, bold creek, fenced pasture, fire pit, barn, shed, and outbuildings add to the function and charm. This property speaks to buyers who want more than a house. It speaks to those looking for land with purpose - homesteaders, investors, builders, outdoor enthusiasts, equestrian buyers, retreat creators, Airbnb hosts, multi-generational families, and anyone dreaming of a private mountain property with room to create something meaningful. Imagine mornings by the pond, evenings in the pasture, trails through the woods, cabins tucked into the trees, a garden near the creek, livestock in the field, guests gathering by the barn, or a future mountain home placed perfectly to take in the view. Whether your dream is a private estate, income-producing retreat, wedding or event concept, mini-farm, family compound, or legacy property to hold for generations, this Mars Hill acreage gives you the canvas. Convenient to Mars Hill University, Wolf Laurel, skiing, hiking, rafting, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville dining and medical services, and East Tennessee amenities, the location is one of the property’s strongest advantages. You can feel away from it all while still being connected to everything that makes Western North Carolina so desirable. Properties with this combination of unrestricted acreage, pasture, water features, barn, buildable land, existing home, mountain setting, and convenient location are increasingly hard to find. This is not just a listing—it is an opportunity to own a true Appalachian legacy property with room for your vision to grow. Dream big. Build bold. Bring your plans. This one is special.
