Welcome to your private mountain oasis—where forest bathing, flowing water, and total tranquility await. Nestled on 13+ acres of pristine woodland with a natural sliding rock and bold creek, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a deep connection to nature. Hike your own trails, wade in the stream, and marvel at the synchronous fireflies that light up the forest at night. The 3BR/2BA main home blends rustic charm and comfort with a spacious great room, cozy den, two wood-burning fireplaces, a woodstove, and a tucked-away speakeasy for relaxing or entertaining. A detached garage features a 1BR/1BA apartment (482 sq ft)—ideal for guests, rental income, or multigenerational living. Every corner of this property invites stillness, presence, and peace. Whether you're unwinding by the fire or meditating by the creek, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into another world—yet you’re less than 15 minutes to both downtown Waynesville and Sylva.
