    What's special

    BUILT IN 1890 WITH MUCH AREA HISTORY! This home is a true fixer upper for history buffs who love older homes! Macon County Tax Office has 6.13 acres and because of the discrepancy and a new survey has been completed by Kirkland Surveying containing 9.58 acres. Property is UNRESTRICTED and approximately 9.58 based on new survey. Property needs new roof. This beautiful property has views (valley and mountain) off Watauga area. There is a top access to the property off Watauga Heights Road, but the new owners must agree to the Road Maintenance Dues for that entrance. Previously used as pasture the property has fantastic possibilities. Shared well with the house next door. Property boundaries have been fenced and are easily located.
