The setting provides a rare sense of tranquility, while remaining conveniently located just 15 minutes from downtown Brevard. The farm features a beautifully designed & well equipped barn (built in 2024) that encompasses approximately 36 SF by 72 square feet. The main level is tailored for functionality & comfort, offering eight 12' by 12' matted horse stalls outfitted with fans, "Cascada" Hydration Trackers & hot/cold water wash racks. A climate-controlled tack room provides space for storage & organization & is complemented by a half bath, lockers, refrigerator & dedicated laundry. An expansive overhang extends above an outdoor patio, creating an inviting setting to enjoy the surrounding mountains and landscaping. Enhancing the appeal of the property is the strawberry patch, blueberry, blackberry bushes & fruit trees. A well-constructed “tar and chip” drive encircles the barn, allowing for easy trailer access & deliveries, & provides parking for at least 6 vehicles. In close proximity to the barn is a 95' by 200', “Sporthorse” designed riding arena which provides a premier training environment. The arena is outfitted with GGT (German Geo Textile) footing, offering superior shock absorption, along with strategically placed mirrors to support both rider & horse development. Designed with high-level equestrian sport & training in mind, the arena also offers exceptional versatility, making it potentially suitable for pleasure riding, non-profit initiatives, & equine-assisted therapy. A nearby arbor serves as a delightful arena viewing area. For those seeking on-site residence, the barn also serves as a “barndominium,” featuring a spacious and well-appointed condominium, completed in 2925, above. The upper level is thoughtfully designed for comfort and style, offering a serene primary suite with vaulted, beamed ceilings and dual walk-in closets, a full bath featuring double sinks, oversized tub/shower with rain shower head, & dedicated laundry room. The open-concept kitchen & living area provide an inviting space for everyday living & entertaining, complemented by an extra room for guests or a private office, & abundant storage space. The deck extends the living space to the outdoors, offering sweeping views of the paddocks & stunning vantage point to enjoy sunset vistas over the mountains. A deeded pedestrian easement provides French Broad River access from the property. Enhancing the property’s versatility, a charming tiny “kit” home by Jamaica Cottage Shop is situated on the grounds, offering flexible accommodations for property management staff, guests, or potential long or short-term rental. Solar Panels are installed on the Tiny Home as well. Two RV sites with electrical & water hookups further expand the property’s income-producing potential & usability. Please note: the RV & two nearby storage sheds are tenant-owned & do not convey with sale. The current owner has successfully utilized the property in the past through the "Hipcamp" site for short-term camping rentals. Ideally positioned for equestrian enthusiasts, the property enjoys convenient access to several renowned riding & trail destinations. Nearby options include Pink Beds Loop Trail within Pisgah National Forest (+/- 30 minutes), Bridal Veil Falls in Dupont State Recreational Forest (+/- 15 minutes), & Auger Hole Trail in Gorges State Park (+/- 35 minutes). With its unique blend of comfortable living, equestrian amenities & income-generating potential, this exceptional property offers a truly rare and compelling opportunity. Note: Tiny Home/RV spot currently leased. Part of property in the 100 & 500 year flood area. The farm is cross listed under MLS Number 4397185.
