Middle Fork Road, currently undergoing improvements, will again be fully paved up to the property. Accessible to Asheville, Hendersonville, and Black Mountain by a 35-minute drive, the property is also convenient to Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, and area hiking destinations.

The sound of moving water carries throughout — this is a property you feel as much as you see. Inside, the split-bedroom floor plan offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths across a spacious open layout. The primary suite features a large en-suite bath and walk-in closet, while the two secondary bedrooms share a guest bath on the opposite side of the home for added privacy. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area is built around a generous island with ample storage and workspace, functional and well-suited for full-time living, a vacation retreat, or a long-term rental investment. New systems and a clean, move-in-ready interior make this one of the most accessible entry points into Western North Carolina real estate currently on the market. The seller is ready to move and has priced this accordingly - buyers seeking affordable new construction in Henderson County or a nature retreat property near Chimney Rock will find this listing difficult to match at the price. The home features three bedrooms, but a two-bedroom septic permit is on file.
