About This Home

As of May 2025

Flat Mountain Farm is a rare find with too many features to describe so you MUST SEE in-person! The perfect blend of residences begins with an Artisan-Contstructed/Hand Hewn Log Primary Residence, and continues with a collection of Splendid Guest Homes/Log homes, an articulated Event Space (with ample prep-kitchen), Craftsman's Woodworking Quarters, A Storage Barn, and much more! But the real value is in the nearly 28+ acres of rolling land that surrounds this compound serving as an open canvass of possibilities including ponds, stream, a waterfall, the upper knoll building site with mountain views, and more. As seen in major publications (Southern Living, Travel & Leisure, and then some) as well as feature coverage on the Discovery Channel & The Magnolia Network; this property truly has something for everyone. So whether you seek proven income-generating property (wedding venue, family reunion weekend destination, retreat and/or wellness center) or simply the quintessential Estate Property with room for generations of family...this may be it!
