    What's special

    Welcome to Leafstone Farms, an extraordinary 60.23-acre estate nestled within an exclusive, high-elevation community near Western Carolina University. This remarkable property offers endless possibilities, including use as a private estate, equestrian haven, family compound, or residential development. The centerpiece of this property is a stunning custom-built structure with a well-appointed climate-controlled apartment suite, including a large primary bedroom with an ensuite, a full kitchen, and a dining area, ensuring both comfort and convenience. This structure also offers a fully finished multi-purpose seven-bay hobby workshop or storage area that will be the envy of all who see it. Adjacent to the main building, you'll find a free-standing log barn equipped with nine horse stalls on the ground level and a spacious loft entertainment area in the barn, with two bonus rooms, and a full bathroom — an ideal place for leisure activities and gatherings. This estate is designed to accommodate various lifestyles — from equestrian enthusiasts to RV living, hobbyists, and families seeking multigenerational spaces. Significant investment in infrastructure that is already in place, including a well-constructed road system with county-grade culverts and drainage for effortless navigation, approximately 1.5 miles of custom equestrian fencing, a hay barn, and a firewood preparation and storage area.
