About this home

Originally built in the 1970s over Kyles Creek on the site of an old bridge, this one-of-a-kind mountain cottage offers a truly unique setting surrounded by the peaceful sounds of flowing water and natural beauty. The home features one bedroom with two bonus rooms, offering flexible space for guests, a home office, or hobby room. A new metal roof was installed in November 2025; however, Hurricane Helene caused significant damage to several structural beams, insulation, and the underside of the home. The property has an existing one-bedroom septic system, and any replacement septic system can only be installed on the back portion of the property across the creek. A well will need to be installed. The home requires substantial repairs and is being sold as-is. A structural engineer is recommended to determine whether the existing structure can be repaired or rebuilt. This property offers potential for buyers with vision. Restore the existing cottage or explore the opportunity to build a new mountain getaway, tiny home, or create the perfect RV retreat on the property (buyer to verify all intended uses, permits, septic requirements, and building suitability). Nestled in the peaceful Kyles Creek area of Terry's Gap, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. Located between Asheville and Hendersonville near the Eastern Continental Divide, you'll enjoy easy access to restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, parks, hiking, antique stores, art galleries, and more. Asheville Regional Airport is less than 20 minutes away. Experience the beauty, serenity, and endless possibilities of Western North Carolina.
