About this home

Beautiful 4.47-acre private riverfront lot located in the gated River Woods community of Waynesville. This sloping homesite offers stunning mountain views, a peaceful natural setting, and direct frontage on the Pigeon River, making it an ideal location for a custom mountain retreat (minimum 1,500 sq ft site-built home). Two cleared trails already provide access to the river, perfect for tubing, kayaking, fishing, or relaxing by the water. The property is accessed by a privately maintained paved and gravel road, offering both privacy and year-round accessibility. Enjoy the beauty of Western North Carolina while still being just minutes from charming downtown Waynesville and a short drive to vibrant Asheville. Septic and well needed. Annual POA fee is $850 ($250 allocated to road maintenance). A rare opportunity to own acreage with river frontage and mountain views in one of the area’s most scenic settings.
