If you’ve been looking for a home with some privacy, plenty of space, and an easy drive to Asheville, this one is worth a look. Sitting up on the lot in a quiet neighborhood, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers more than 1,800 square feet of living space, all on one level. The layout is comfortable and functional, with two large living areas and a split-bedroom floor plan that gives the primary bedroom some privacy from the other bedrooms. The main living room features hardwood floors, crown molding, and lots of natural light, while the family room has hardwood floors and a gas-log fireplace. The kitchen is one of the highlights of the home, with plenty of counter space, Corian countertops, tile floors, a tile backsplash, island, breakfast bar, and a nice open feel into the family room and dining area.

The large covered front porch is perfect for sitting outside, while the rear deck runs almost the entire length of the home and gives you plenty of room for grilling, entertaining, or just enjoying the privacy. The roof was replaced in December 2025 by Balkan Roofing. There is also a recently completed detached double carport that is tall enough for an RV, along with an additional parking pad near the road that can accommodate a fifth wheel or extra vehicles. A detached storage building and generator are included as well. The owner has taken great care of the home, adding a number of thoughtful upgrades over the years. You get the feel of a country setting without being far from everything Asheville has to offer. POA dues also include water through the community water system. A lot of space, privacy, and character for the price, with Asheville only about 20 minutes away.

Thirty-five minutes northwest of Asheville, this property sits in Little Sandy Mush, close enough for an easy trip into town, far enough for real privacy. Mountain views from every side of the house. No neighbors in sight. Clear night skies and fireflies in the pasture at dusk. The 2,300 square foot farmhouse is thoughtful in functional detail. Four zones of radiant floor heat run beneath polished concrete on the main level and tile in the bathrooms, backed by mini splits for extra heating and cooling and a cast-iron wood stove and wood-burning fireplace for colder nights. The kitchen was designed around custom cabinetry, built for cooking with the herbs and vegetables grown on the property. A stone patio and wraparound deck tie the outside to the front porch, made for slow mornings and long evenings. Mature fruit trees are already established and bearing, and creeks run off the mountain. Level, expansive pastures for livestock. Wildlife is everywhere, deer and wild turkey moving through, birdsong from the treeline, box turtles, and salamanders along the creek banks, life at every turn. A trail loops along the field and up into the woods, light breaking through the canopy as the path climbs the mountainside. Up on the hill, a little studio with a loft, windows facing out over the land and just enough room for yoga, meditation, or an hour of quiet. Additional potential building sites are ready for a barn, a greenhouse, guest quarters, whatever comes next. A separate 600 square foot log cabin already stands ready as a workshop or studio. Bring your vision for creating a homestead, farm, retreat or just simplified life on this bountiful and beautiful acreage. Listed with just 20.75 acres at MLS 4408264.

Tucked into a peaceful rural valley with sweeping mountain views, this one-of-a-kind equestrian property on Dix Creek has been a cherished home for horses, chickens, dogs, cats, and the people who love them for over 30 years. The 4-stall barn is well-appointed with a tack room and hay loft, while a riding ring with new fencing gives you a dedicated space to ride and train — all set against a gorgeous mountain backdrop. The land is gently sloping and usable, offering the kind of valley acreage that's increasingly hard to find in Western NC. The cabin radiates the kind of warmth that can't be manufactured — original wood floors, solid wood paneling, and exposed beams give it an authentic 1970s character that feels grounded and inviting. Step out onto the covered back porch and deck and you're rewarded with sweeping mountain views and a symphony of birdsong — the kind of morning that makes you forget there's anywhere else to be. The main floor features a wheelchair-accessible bedroom and full bath with exterior ramp, making it both charming and practical. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and two updated bathrooms offer plenty of space for family and guests. The full unfinished basement provides generous storage today and real potential for a finished rec room, workshop, or entertainment space down the road. Properties like this — with the acreage, infrastructure, and setting to support a true homestead lifestyle — rarely come to market.
