About This Home

Welcome to the River House at 243 Poplar Lane. Some properties simply stop you in your tracks, and the River House is one of them. Set on 5.2 gently rolling, wooded acres along the French Broad River, this two-story home offers a rare combination of scale, character, and natural beauty that is hard to come by in Transylvania County.
The home itself sits above the flood zone, giving you peace of mind while still enjoying one of the most coveted settings in the area. As with any property this close to the French Broad, portions of the land do experience occasional flooding, which only speaks to how intimately connected this property is to the river. It is the kind of tradeoff that people who love the water understand and embrace. The main level primary suite makes everyday living effortless, featuring a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins, a jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Heart pine floors run throughout the home, complemented by custom built-ins, double crown molding, and recessed lighting that give every room a warm and finished feel. The recently remodeled kitchen is the heart of the home, and a second full kitchen means hosting friends and family is genuinely easy. Both kitchens are outfitted with stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and breakfast bars. Two laundry rooms add the kind of practical convenience that guests and extended stays truly call for. Step outside and the acres open up around you. Evenings around the outdoor fire pit feel made for this setting, and the covered patios, deck, and balconies give you a front row seat to the river and the surrounding forest any time of day. All of this sits just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Brevard, five minutes from the trails of Pisgah National Forest, and only half a mile from the future Ecusta Trail. If you have been searching for a property with room to breathe, a true connection to the river, and easy access to everything that makes Brevard special, the River House deserves your full attention.
