Few properties come with their own mountain. This gem does! Set in one of Haywood County's most private coves, this 93-acre working equestrian estate brings together three residences, three barns including two stables, multiple fenced pastures, and a high-yield hayfield, all anchored by a nearly 60-acre private mountain of untouched hardwood forest.
The main residence is a log home of rare craftsmanship. The kitchen, designed by its owner, a professional chef, features wormy chestnut cabinetry reclaimed from a historic cabin that once stood on this property. The owners hand-sourced the structural pine supports and stair treads. Every detail carries the history of this land. It has southern exposure, tongue-and-groove pine throughout, and four heating and cooling zones. There are four bedrooms and 4.5 baths, including two upstairs bedrooms each with its own sleeping loft. The walk-out lower level offers a media room, a kitchenette, and direct access to the heated pool and hot tub, with space for a covered outdoor kitchen and bar. New roof in 2022; two-car garage.
A four-bedroom, two-bath log cottage with a metal roof and 2024 HVAC serves beautifully as a guest house or caretaker's quarters. A third home, with two bedrooms and two baths, has a 2024 roof, 2025 water filtration, and a new 2026 well pump tank. Each home has a nearby barn.
The mountain remains as it has for generations: hardwood forest, resident wildlife, and the ruins of a century-old cabin. Deer cross the pastures daily. Four separate access points create rare flexibility for multiple living arrangements, guest spaces, or rental opportunities, while allowing for privacy and independence between each area. All of this, while remaining about 25 minutes from downtown Asheville. And approx 34 miles (~40 minutes) to Asheville Regional Airport.
An estate of genuine self-sufficiency and legacy, ready for its next chapter.
