About this home

Located in Cherokee County near Murphy, North Carolina, this unrestricted tract combines privacy, natural features, and recreational opportunities. Situated at the end of a paved road, the property offers easy access while maintaining seclusion. With acreage on both sides of the road, there is potential for multiple homesites, a subdivision, or simply preserving the land for recreation. Directly adjoining U.S. Forest Service land, the tract provides immediate access to public acreage for hunting, hiking, and exploration. Just beyond the forest boundary lies Hiwassee Lake, a reservoir formed by the Hiwassee Dam. The lake offers fishing, kayaking, and boating, with a public boat ramp only 1.5 miles away. A forestry road already extends several hundred yards into the property, leading to a potential building site with mountain views. Additional build locations allow for flexibility in future use. The land features mature hardwoods, pine timber, and a small creek, enhancing both ecological diversity and recreational value. A spring well exists on site, along with an old farmhouse of no contributory value. Conveniently located, the tract is 15 minutes from Murphy, 20 minutes from Andrews, 30 minutes from Hayesville, and about 40 minutes from Blairsville and Blue Ridge, Georgia.
