Escape to your own slice of Western North Carolina at 997 Bethel Ridge Lane! This 2-bedroom, 2-bath single-wide manufactured home offers 924 square feet of comfortable living space set on a private, wooded 3.29-acre lot — plenty of room to spread out, garden, or add a workshop. Enjoy peace, quiet, and elbow room, with three outbuildings adding fantastic storage and hobby space: a 10x20 building with a loft, water, and electricity (ideal for a workshop, studio, or extra storage), a second 10x16 outbuilding, and a smaller bonus shed for tools and equipment.
Located in Burke County just outside of Morganton, this property puts you close to everything the Blue Ridge foothills have to offer. Boaters and outdoor lovers will love being minutes from Lake James State Park, with 6,800+ acres of clear mountain water perfect for boating, fishing, swimming, and paddling. Hikers and mountain bikers can explore the trails of South Mountains State Park, home to an 80-foot waterfall and miles of backcountry trails. Downtown Morganton offers charming shops, local restaurants, breweries, and the historic Old Burke County Courthouse, while nearby Asheville, Hickory, and Marion put big-city amenities, wineries, and additional outdoor recreation all within easy reach.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or an investment property with acreage and outbuildings already in place, this is a rare opportunity to own land in the heart of the North Carolina mountains.
