Open land, scenic water features, and room to spread out. 525 Silent Acres offers a special setting on 8.46 acres across two parcels in Waynesville. This two-story, five-bedroom, three-bath home combines spacious living and entertaining areas with expansive open acreage, three scenic ponds, creek access, and established ATV trails. Whether you envision outdoor recreation, gardening, gathering with friends, or simply enjoying the views, there’s room to make it your own.
A sunroom entry welcomes you into an oversized living room with an updated gas log fireplace and access to a spacious wraparound deck overlooking the ponds. The kitchen features a Viking six-burner gas range, double ovens, a GE Monogram refrigerator/freezer, reverse osmosis water system, and breakfast bar adjoining a light-filled dining area. The updated primary suite offers renovated closets, private outdoor access, and a bath with a walk-in shower, heated floors, and a jetted tub. Two additional bedrooms on each level provide flexibility for guests, work, or hobbies. Entertaining continues with a billiard/game room and a well-equipped wet bar featuring a sink, wine cooler, ice maker, dishwasher, and refrigerator.
Extensive improvements include a new roof in 2023, updated upstairs flooring, new game room carpet, interior and exterior paint, kitchen and primary bedroom windows, a remodeled guest bathroom, and updated tile in the Jack-and-Jill bath. Outside, English flagstone front steps, an updated patio roof, exterior lighting, gated driveway access, and a 30-amp RV receptacle in the garage enhance the property.
The acreage offers space to explore, play, and unwind. Enjoy fishing in the ponds, with an added aerator in the largest pond, follow the established trails, or take in the open setting from the wraparound deck. Fenced and cross-fenced areas, horse stalls, and a chicken coop provide additional options for those interested in keeping animals.
A detached two-car garage with an electric vehicle charger, fiber internet, a generator transfer switch, and a 500-gallon propane tank add everyday convenience. The septic system was pumped in 2024. With open space, water features, and inviting indoor and outdoor gathering areas, this property offers room to make your mountain lifestyle your own.
