About This Home
116+ private acres in the foothills of Western North Carolina offering an exceptional combination of recreation, water, improvements and privacy. Located at the end of the community, this expansive Union Mills property features miles of trails, two stocked ponds, multiple streams, pasture, wooded acreage and established hunting areas. Approximately 20 acres lie outside the HOA, providing additional flexibility for recreational use.
The property is extensively improved and includes a handcrafted log lodge, detached garage with apartment, large cedar barn with four stalls, tack area, loft, water and full bath, plus a separate cedar storage building. Three standby generators serve the main residence, garage apartment and well. Additional features include established deer stands, outdoor BBQ area and an extensive trail network providing access throughout the acreage.
This is far more than a homesite—it's an established mountain estate offering the acreage, infrastructure and natural features that can take years to assemble. Ideal for a private retreat, recreational property, equestrian use, hunting or a legacy family estate. Also listed as Residential — MLS #4389604
