About this home

Discover your private mountain creek-front sanctuary with this 7.5-acre property featuring lush woodlands, a peaceful valley, and a large creek with cascading waterfalls that flows through it.

The property includes two lots in Chestnut Walk Phase II and a larger tract, each appear to be under Chestnut Walk Restrictions. Enjoy easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Pisgah National Forest while immersed in nature's tranquility. The creek's soothing waterfalls create a year-round oasis, perfect for morning coffee or evening strolls. Design your dream cabin, modern retreat, or homestead. A shared gravel road through the property services the Apple Tree community. Rare creek-front opportunity in Haywood County's desirable market. Buyer to verify zoning, utilities, and HOA details.
