A Diamond in the Rough with 8.38 Unrestricted Acres and Endless Possibilities! Bring your vision, creativity, and a little elbow grease to this Western North Carolina farmstead offering 8.38 unrestricted acres, a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, two barns, multiple outbuildings, and a beautiful mix of pasture and potential garden or orchard areas. Privately situated yet conveniently located just 12 minutes from the future AdventHealth Hospital in Weaverville, this property offers the opportunity to create your own mountain homestead without sacrificing accessibility. Owned by the same family for 19 years, this once-loved property is ready for its next chapter. While the home needs cosmetic renovations and repairs, the land, existing infrastructure, and possibilities make it well worth the effort. For a glimpse of the home's former charm, your agent can provide you the 2007 listing. Although these photos do not reflect its current condition, they offer inspiration for what this home could become again. Imagine restoring the home while creating a self-sufficient lifestyle with gardens, fruit trees, livestock, and room to roam. The property features two barns, including one with metered power separate from the main house, 2 stalls, a tack room, a storage loft, and a dedicated well. The lower level is offers a drive thru feature with access to a pasture. Two additional outbuildings provide valuable workspace and storage, with one offering both power and water. Much of the acreage is already fenced, providing a head start for those dreaming of horses, hobby farming, or a peaceful country retreat. With unrestricted acreage and potential additional building sites, buyers may also wish to explore subdivision possibilities, a family compound, or future investment opportunities, subject to applicable regulations and approvals. The home is being offered in its current condition and will require improvements, including new flooring, localized subfloor repairs from previous appliance leaks, updated appliances, interior painting, kitchen cabinet refreshing, and some minor exterior maintenance. Cash buyers or those utilizing renovation financing, such as an FHA 203(k) or conventional renovation loan, may be better suited to this opportunity. For buyers willing to invest a little sweat equity, the reward could be a truly special property. The house needs a big hug, but the land, location, and possibilities are already here! Whether you're dreaming of a working mini-farm, private mountain homestead, or a property with room to grow, this is an opportunity to bring new life to a place with so much to offer.
