About This Home

Escape to the quiet beauty of Western North Carolina with this 1963 home nestled in Gingercake Acres, surrounded by the natural beauty of Pisgah National Forest. A true fixer-upper with plenty of potential, this property offers the opportunity to bring your vision to life and create a special mountain retreat, weekend getaway, or short-term rental. Original hardwood floors add character and warmth throughout the living area and bedrooms, while the wooded lot provides a peaceful sense of privacy.

Relax on the deck, listen to the sounds of nature, and enjoy the feeling of being tucked away in the mountains. With some updating and TLC, this home could become a wonderful retreat. Gingercake Acres brings more than a great location with a clubhouse, swimming pool, playground and tennis/pickleball courts.

Also enjoy the community events and casual potluck dinners during the summer months. It’s a welcoming mountain community where outdoor adventure and neighborly connection go hand in hand. Located near popular hiking trails in the Linville Gorge Wilderness and countless opportunities for outdoor recreation, this is a place where weekends can feel like a true escape.

Short-term rentals are allowed, adding flexibility for those looking to enjoy the home as a personal getaway while also having the potential for rental income. Bring your ideas, your imagination, and a little TLC to this mountain property and make it your own.
