About this home

This 651 +- acre tract in the foothills of Rutherford County represents a great opportunity to acquire professionally managed timberland with over a mile of Broad River frontage. The property features extensive logging roads throughout, in addition to access points on privately maintained Thompson Lake Rd and publicly maintained (and paved) Matthews Church Rd. With an extensive timber resource providing current and future harvest possibilities, the property really is an increasingly rare combination of size, accessibility, river frontage, and fairly gentle topography that lends itself to multiple ownership strategies. The land is quite private, and the topography lays very well, offering a diverse range of ridgelines, hollows, springs, knoll tops, and abundant river frontage. Keep the property in timber production (enrolled in present-use timber program), or explore recreational, private estate, conservation, or subdivision uses. All told, Broad Mountain represents a rare Western NC large-acreage offering with varied options for long-term uses to realize investment value.
