Description

A one-of-a-kind offering for the buyer that wants everything! The unique topography and six acres of land provide long-range views of the Blue Ridge Parkway, short-range views overlooking idyllic pasture land, level land for multiple houses or gardening, and a beautiful free-flowing stream towards the French Broad River. There are places in the county that have long-range parkway views but rarely will you find them this close to downtown Brevard with this much privacy. In less than a mile and a half...A one-of-a-kind offering for the buyer that wants everything! The unique topography and six acres of land provide long-range views of the Blue Ridge Parkway, short-range views overlooking idyllic pasture land, level land for multiple houses or gardening, and a beautiful free-flowing stream towards the French Broad River. There are places in the county that have long-range parkway views but rarely will you find them this close to downtown Brevard with this much privacy. In less than a mile and a half you can be in town with all the restaurants, shops, and entertainment. The historic home on the property is over 100 years old and seems to be in solid condition with lots of wormy chestnut accents and high ceilings. With some vision, it could be transformed into a showpiece estate. Not far from the home, this property was the site of the largest Beechwood tree in the county. School groups and locals would visit to marvel at its beauty. Hence the name Beechwood Estate. See the video!
