Once-in-a-lifetime find on sought-after Old Tweetsie Road. The value is the Watauga River frontage vs the home. Check out The Falls: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pn115mvgga3za2i/Video.MOV?dl=0 and - https://www.dropbox.com/s/pn115mvgga3za2i/Video.MOV?dl=0 . Here's a virtual tour of a walk-through of the interior: https://youtu.be/9zIsJU03o6A
You'll own both sides of the river. Total privacy, no one else has access. Swimming holes, trout fishing, unparalleled grandeur! Massive boulders stand as stony sentinels all along the banks and central stream. Drive out today, park and hike this scintillating section of the Watauga River to your hearts content. Imagine renovating the existing, vaulted-beam-ceiling cabin and building your brand new mountain dream right on the edge of the frothy turbulence of these waterfalls! Long considered the quintessential trout-fishing mecca of the high country, this offering will tempt your inner angler. Stairway to river and there is another circa 22 acres in two lots on the east side of Old Tweetsie Road available, should you prefer entirely unimproved property. Come consider the elegance and grandeur. Seize the moment before it floats downstream into someone else's dream. New Roof. Bsmt workroom. Storage bldg. Backup-Offers welcome.
