Escape the crowds and discover the freedom of country living on 16+ unrestricted acres in the heart of Mill Spring, in highly sought-after Polk County. With 2+ acres cleared and 14 acres of woods, the property is teeming with wildlife. This unique homestead offers the privacy and peace you've been craving. The farmhouse features 2 bedrooms, a spacious loft/bonus room, and 2 full bathrooms. It has multiple heat sources, including a heat pump, a gas log fireplace in the spacious primary bedroom, and a wood-burning stove in the family room/den. Home is equipped with three Ring security cameras, which convey with the property. Three exterior motion-sensor flood lights provide added security and convenience. Outside, you can hike or ride four-wheelers along your own trails, listen to the gentle creek that meanders through the property, or discover the natural spring hidden in the woods behind the home. The property is well-equipped for homesteading, featuring a large barn (currently full of useful lumber for your projects), a 10x12 storage shed with electricity, a tool barn, and a 24'x31' (744 SF) workshop with electric and water. Outside the workshop is a 30-amp electrical hookup for your RV. Rich in history, the hand-hewn log cabin was once part of an original family homestead. Family and local historical accounts suggest that the cabin dates back to the 18th century and is the oldest structure in Polk County still in its original location. Given its age, the current owner had the home assessed by a GC for structural integrity, and the house was deemed solid. The home has had two additions over the years. This place is special, and you'll feel it the moment you step foot on the property. Conveniently located ten minutes from Lake Lure, 20 minutes from Columbus, 20 minutes from the Tryon Equestrian Center, and 35 minutes from Hendersonville. Property is at the end of a private dead-end dirt road, so out of respect for neighbors, please, no drive-bys. Showings by appointment only. Agent is owner, and owners are motivated.
