Tucked behind the gates of Brights Creek, yet free from Brights Creek restrictions, this exceptional 35-acre equestrian estate offers the rare combination of privacy, flexibility, and horse facilities. The property features four fenced pastures, four run-in sheds, a 115'X65' covered riding arena, and Brights Creek flowing through the land, all framed by beautiful mountain views. The well-appointed equestrian facilities include a 6-stall barn with tack room, feed room, hay loft, wash stall, and bathroom, plus a large Morton building for tractors and equipment. The 3-bedroom main residence is complemented by a separate 2-bedroom barn apartment with its own detached garage, providing ideal accommodations for guests, trainers, or rental income. A truly one-of-a-kind property designed for the equestrian lifestyle. Membership can be purchased to Brights Creek. 14 miles to Tryon International Equestrian Center.
