Discover a rare blend of privacy, functionality, and natural beauty on this 3.82-acre parcel, thoughtfully improved for immediate enjoyment and future potential. Tucked within a quiet gated neighborhood and accessed by a private gravel road, this property offers a peaceful retreat with just the right balance of seclusion and accessibility.
A partially cleared homesite invites your vision, while the existing off-grid shed provides a comfortable basecamp. Outfitted with a kitchenette, sleeping quarters, and efficient mini-split HVAC, it’s ideal for weekend stays, extended visits, or use while you build. An additional tool shed offers ample storage for equipment and outdoor gear.
Nature lovers will appreciate the gentle creek frontage. Established garden beds with perennial herbs create an immediate opportunity for sustainable living and homesteading. With a valid perc permit for a 2-bedroom home and a well permit are already in place, much of the groundwork has been done—saving you time and expense. Whether you’re seeking a private getaway, a future homesite, or a small-scale homestead, this property is ready for your vision. Just 15 minutes to Morganton and less than 10 minutes to I-40.
