Wide Area Location Map Wide Area Location Map - click for enlargement

This wonderful tract of land is located about 40 minutes NW of Asheville in Hot Springs, NC. A tremendous asset of this tract is the bold creek which borders the property and provides over 1900 feet of trout stream. Stroll along the creekside trail and be inspired by the beautiful rock formations, high cliffs, beaverdams, and other natural attributes. The overall topography is gentle with two prominent knolls that overlook flat to rolling pastures.

This 156 acres has been well loved and passed down through the same family for six generations. In earlier years, a significant portion of the tract was used for cattle grazing. Almost half of the property backs up to the USFS providing an enhanced opportunity to enjoy wildlife, including song birds, turkey, grouse, deer, bear, and wildcat.

About Hot Springs: One of the many unique features of Hot Springs is that the Appalachian Trail and the French Broad River runs thru the town to give this mountain community an identity of flowing hospitality from either land or water. Many outdoor activities are available in close proximity including natural spring-fed hot tubs, white water rafting, hiking, trout fishing, snow skiing, kayaking, etc.

Please call Leslee for surveys, topo maps, directions, and other pertinent information. Land is currently in a Forestry Use Program which provides the landowner with low taxes. Offered at $1,310,400. MLS 395203.

This tract enjoys low taxes, ask me how to keep them that way!
