About this home

47 acres with big mountain views barely a mile from Marshall’s Main Street. Build the road, build the dream. This 47+ acre Blue Ridge mountain tract is the one of a kind of “how is this still so close to town?” property buyers hunt for and rarely find. You’ll get awe-inspiring long-range views, a gentle, rolling landscape, and multiple potential homesites whether you want to tuck into privacy or open up sightlines for big vistas. This land has a story: it was once a working cattle farm, and while it’s naturally re-grown over time, the open pasture potential is still here ready to be reclaimed if you want a homestead setup, grazing, gardens, orchards, or simply more open views. The forest is young in growth, which is a plus for buyers who want to shape a property selective clearing, trail systems, view corridors, and future landscaping without battling massive mature timber. Even better, a spring originates on the property, adding that hard-to-find “water source” magic that makes land feel alive and usable. The key detail (and it’s priced accordingly) access will be created from Bailey’s Branch Rd, and the buyer will need to build the road. If you’ve been waiting for a close in acreage play and you’re willing to invest in access, this one pays you back with location, scale, and scenery. Price improvement to $375,000, exceptional value for 47+ acres this close to town. New Survey with markers in place. Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this property strikes a perfect balance between seclusion and convenience. It's a haven for artists, nature enthusiasts and those in search of a serene escape. With a short 24-mile drive to the vibrant city of Asheville, you can enjoy the cultural offerings and amenities while returning to the tranquility of your mountain oasis. Privacy and seclusion are at the forefront of this property, yet it maintains easy access to local services and essentials in Downtown Marshall. Whether you dream of building your mountain retreat, embarking on a development project, or securing a unique investment, this canvas of possibilities is yours to explore. Don't miss the chance to make this your slice of mountain paradise. Contact your agent for a private showing.
