Two separate Historic log cabins from 1812 were reassembled in 1991 atop this 12+ acre mountaintop. Mount Mitchell and Roan Mountain all the way in Tennessee are visible from the dining room. Both cabins have high ceilings, amazing views, and up to date amenities.
The guest cabin has operated as an Airbnb. Both cabins will come fully furnished, with the exception of a few items.
Both cabins share an elegant courtyard with hydrangeas, japanese maples, and flowers galore. A mini orchard sits below to supply you with peaches, blueberries, apples, pears and pecans.
Next door on the same parcel a 1.5 acre home site that has been cleared for a 2800 sqft home. Well and Septic permits exist and have already been approved by county.
This investment opportunity or mountain retreat is just over an hour from the CLT Airport, one hour to Asheville and 45 minutes to Lake Lure.
If quiet serenity is what you’re looking for or what you want for your guests, this could be the one!
