Discover your private sanctuary in the heart of sought-after Tryon Hunting Country, where nature and tranquility take center stage. Tucked away at the end of a picturesque, canopied drive, this serene, recently updated property offers a rare opportunity to embrace peaceful living with direct access to the renowned FETA trail system, which meanders through the land, along with carefully maintained private hiking trails. Surrounded by natural beauty, the home is thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in. Expansive windows throughout create a treehouse-like atmosphere, showcasing stunning year-round mountain views from nearly every room and filling the space with natural light. The open-concept layout and split-bedroom floor plan offer both comfort and functionality—ideal for entertaining guests or enjoying quiet evenings by the double-sided fireplace, shared between the living room and sunroom. There are two bedroom suites, plus a guest bedroom/office. The well-appointed kitchen (with new Wolf and Bosch appliances) serves as the heart of the home, while a versatile multipurpose room with a built-in window seat and storage adds flexibility for work, relaxation, or hobbies. Every detail is designed to enhance the connection to nature while providing modern comfort. The property offers horse amenities, with a new run-in shelter with a feed/tack room, and new fencing. The detached garage/workshop presents excellent potential for conversion into a studio or additional living quarters. A septic permit for the conversion is on file. An additional adjacent 5-acre parcel is available for purchase to expand grazing. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful retreat, an outdoor enthusiast’s haven, or the foundation for your dream equestrian lifestyle, this unique property offers endless possibilities in an unmatched natural setting.
