With close to 5 acres, the grounds of this farm have been well thought out with a well appointed barn tucked away close to the shade trees, a sizable riding ring, plenty of pasture and garden space, a wide stream running along one side of the property, various gates/horse and trailer access, and all found in the back of the property plus plenty of traditional yard space on all sides of the home and good parking. You'll find the home just as spacious as the property featuring a den, three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms on the main level, an upper level master suite overlooking the property, and a large family room in the basement level with a bathroom and interior/exterior access and a workshop/laundry/storage area. Other features include a wrap-around deck with screened porch that opens off of the dining room, a wood-burning fireplace in the living room, wood floors throughout the main and upper levels, with tile in the bathrooms on one of the bedrooms, a light and bright kitchen, and lots of room. As a bonus, you'll easily enjoy the best of both worlds with the Nantahala Forest practically in your back yard and downtown Highlands approximately 5 miles up the road.
