We are proud to present a truly once-in-a-lifetime estate nestled in the heart of Laurel Springs, offering over 265 breathtaking acres in one of the most scenic settings the Blue Ridge Mountains have to offer. This remarkable property is bordered by the Blue Ridge Parkway on one side and adjoins NC Game Lands in Wilkes County on the other, providing unmatched privacy, protected surroundings, and direct access to thousands of acres of preserved land. The landscape is nothing short of extraordinary, featuring a serene pond, multiple flowing streams, a waterfall, rolling pasture, and expansive wooded acreage—creating a setting that feels both wild and thoughtfully curated. Improvements include a main residence offering a living room, kitchen, 4 bedrooms, and 3.5 bathrooms, a guest house with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, and laundry area (permitting in progress), a charming cottage overlooking the pond—perfect for quiet mornings or visiting guests, and an old barn full of rustic character, ideal storage or creative reuse. Approximately 33.67 +/- acres are unencumbered, while 231.808 +/- acres are protected under a conservation easement with the Blue Ridge Conservancy, ensuring the long-term preservation of the land’s natural beauty while still allowing for a wide range of uses. The possibilities here are truly exceptional: a private mountain estate, wedding or event venue, bed and breakfast, wellness or retreat center, hunter’s paradise, a farm, or a thoughtfully designed combination of uses. Whether your vision is personal, a business, or legacy-focused, this property offers the rare scale, setting, and flexibility to bring it to life. Come home to your very own sanctuary in the Blue Ridge Mountains—where nature, privacy, and opportunity converge.
