About this home

Spanning more than 65 acres of mountain wilderness bordering thousands of acres of National Forest land, this property offers expansive acreage, rolling mountain views, and endless outdoor possibilities. An extensive trail system winds through the wooded landscape, and layered long- and short-range mountain views can be found throughout the property, with potential to further open the vistas through selective tree trimming. The cabin's main level features an open living and dining area, kitchen, spacious primary ensuite bedroom, second bedroom and full bathroom, plus a front room with generous pantry storage. The lower level adds a family room, two additional bedrooms, and a third full bathroom. A separate structure includes two offices, a den, and a fourth full bathroom, ideal for remote work, hobbies, or recreation. A storage barn provides space for firewood and UTV parking. The acreage is what truly sets this property apart. Fruit trees, gardening areas, and multiple potential building sites offer opportunities to cultivate the land, add structures, or create recreational spaces. With relatively light property restrictions, possibilities range from a mountain homestead to an outdoor enthusiast's basecamp or a property accommodating multiple pursuits. Convenient to Cullowhee and Sylva, the property offers access to Western Carolina University, Catamount athletics, performing arts, and year-round events. The nearby Jackson County Recreation Complex features indoor pools, a gymnasium, fitness facilities, and recreational programming. Downtown Sylva offers locally owned restaurants, breweries, boutiques, and galleries along Main Street. Hiking, waterfalls, fishing, paddling, and mountain biking are all part of the surrounding outdoor lifestyle. The Highlands-Cashiers Plateau, including Lake Glenville, is also within reach, with additional dining, shopping, galleries, and mountain scenery. Asheville Regional Airport and the greater Asheville area, along with Greenville, Charlotte, and Atlanta, provide connections to larger metropolitan areas. Septic system expansion to a four bedroom capacity has been approved and is currently in progress.
