About This Home

As of July 2026

Located just 2 miles from the heart of downtown Old Fort and set against a backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this move-in-ready mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of peace and convenience. The sale includes two parcels (PINs 066900147959 & 066900144889) for a total of 2.69 acres, making it a great option for a turnkey short-term rental, long-term rental, or primary residence. A second residence could be added to the vacant parcel. Rest easy knowing this property sustained no damage from Hurricane Helene. Enjoy mountain views from both inside and outside the home, with potential for even more expansive views by clearing a few of the front trees. Inside, the home features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom filled with abundant natural light, plus mountain views from the master bedroom, dining room, and the living room windows and sliding doors. Recent updates include all new double-pane windows (2022), a new stainless steel dishwasher (2025), updated hot water heater (2021/2022), Nest smart thermostat, central HVAC (2022), and nearly all furnishings available for conveyance. The exterior spaces are designed for relaxation and entertaining, including a spacious view deck with canopy shade and grilling space and recently-added hot tub with lift assist and dedicated 220V service (2023). The current owners have especially enjoyed the new firepit, seating for 6, and string lights in the cove surrounded by trees. The multi-use storage building offers exceptional functionality with a workshop area featuring electricity, subpanel, and 220V outlet, plus storage for tools, equipment, and the well pump house is insulated and temperature-controlled using programmable thermostat and heaters for freeze protection (with new pressure tank). A water-resistant crawlspace barrier and insulation were also added to the property. High speed internet is available, and the road does not require 4WD/AWD. Approximately 2 miles from downtown Old Fort, local favorites such as Hillman Beer, Euda Wine, Modern Alchemist, and Gogo’s Cinnamon Rolls are easily accessible. Looking for outdoor adventure? The new Foothills Watershed bike park is approx. 2.5 miles away, and the entrance to Catawba Falls hiking is approx 5 miles away. Historic Downtown Black Mountain and Ingles Supermarket and approx 11 miles away, and Downtown Asheville is typically less than a 30 min drive.
