Your dream of an authentic Appalachian homestead awaits! With the perfect blend of town & country, this property is situated in the beautiful & pastoral Bolens Creek valley but only 5 mins from the cute & quaint Burnsville downtown & 3 mins from the Black Mountain Crest trailhead. The lovely old farmhouse exudes a warm charm, history, & character whether you're on the rocking chair-ready front porch gazing out at the epic mountain & valley views or exploring the 13+ acres of lush woods complete with wildflowers and bubbling springs. With 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths spanning 2000+ SF, this home awaits your vision to breathe new life into its next chapter! The home is being sold as-is through a family estate along with the adjacent 12.76-acre tract. A grassy roadbed leads up to a level & cleared area that could potentially serve as another building site. This dream property even includes creek frontage to enjoy summertime wading, fishing, and relaxation. Go see it now before it's gone!
