For Sale

Set against long-range mountain views and rolling pastureland, this unrestricted 3-bedroom farmhouse offers over 8 ACRES of usable land and endless potential in the High Country. With more than a quarter mile of paved road frontage, southern exposure, and multiple possible building sites, the property provides flexibility for a hobby farm, small homestead, family compound, or mountain retreat. The home has been extensively updated with major improvements already completed, including a new roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, insulation, water heater, and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. New vinyl siding enhances the exterior, while the fully renovated bathroom features all new fixtures, including a tub/shower, toilet, and sink. A Buck Woodstove anchors the living area with warmth and character, and the kitchen and dining space overlook the pastures and surrounding mountain views. The front porch has been refreshed, creating a welcoming spot to relax and take in the peaceful setting. The land is the true highlight. Mostly pasture with a blend of level and gently rolling terrain, the property includes a natural spring, strong streams, and a large fenced grazing area. A substantial drive-through barn provides room for stalls, equipment, or storage, complemented by a classic tobacco barn and several additional outbuildings that offer versatility for workshop space, storage, livestock, or agricultural use. Previous owners have kept horses, goats, and rabbits, and even operated a nursery with hundreds of rhododendrons—demonstrating the property's productive potential. High-speed fiber optic internet is available, offering modern convenience in a rural setting. While several outbuildings could benefit from additional cosmetic updates and repairs, the groundwork has been laid for someone to further enhance and personalize the property. Located next to the Beech Mountain Community Center and just 15–20 minutes from Buckeye Lake Recreation Area, Beech Mountain Ski Slopes, the Watauga River, and Watauga Lake, this property combines privacy, acreage, and proximity to year-round recreation. A rare opportunity to own usable acreage with views, infrastructure, and room to grow.
