Welcome to 1491 Landrum Road, Tryon, NC, Set in the heart of horse country and offering a rare opportunity to own over 5+ Acres with prime topography and an unbeatable location. Just minutes from the intersections of Highway 14, Highway 11, and I-26, this property puts you at the center of the Foothills’ renowned equestrian scene. From shows and events at the Tryon International Equestrian Center to miles of nearby trails, training barns, and boarding facilities, everything about this address connects you directly to the lifestyle that makes this region so desirable. CETA Trail nearby, may be possible for easy access.
The acreage is the star of this property. Level and gently rolling terrain makes it highly versatile—ideal for paddocks, pastures, a custom barn, or training arenas. In an area where flat land is scarce, this parcel provides the kind of usable ground horse owners and farm buyers value most. Whether your vision is a working equestrian operation, a gentleman’s farm, or simply a private retreat with room to expand, this land offers the flexibility to bring those plans to life.
There is an existing home on site, currently being tidied up with landscaping and light exterior updates. While serviceable, it is not being presented as the primary value of the property. Buyers should plan for potential improvements, replacement, or reimagining according to their own needs.
The location is what truly sets this property apart. With close access to Tryon, Landrum, and Columbus, you’ll find boutique shops, dining, and local services only minutes away, while major routes like I-26 and Highway 74 provide easy connections to Asheville, Spartanburg, Greenville, and Charlotte. This balance of rural atmosphere and modern accessibility makes it an attractive option for equestrian buyers who need both convenience and space.
Usable tracts in this corridor are increasingly rare with the lay of the land and opportunity - 1491 Landrum Road represents not just land, but the foundation for a future investment in one of the Southeast’s most sought-after equestrian "communities" (***Not in a community per se and open for many uses as it's zoned MU by the county!).
For buyers ready to build their vision from the ground up, this property offers the acreage, location, and possibilities to make it happen! (*There is also an older barn on the property. While not given contributory value, it offers buyers the flexibility to either remove it and start fresh, or explore potential restoration depending on their vision for the land... for safety reasons, entry is not advised.*)
