About this home

Ever dream of owning acreage with a beautiful creek and amazing views bordered by protected lands? This rare property consists of approximately 75 acres and is in Marion and a 40-minute drive to Asheville. This exceptional mountain tract borders Bobs Creek State Natural Area and North Carolina State Lands along two sides of the property. The property features incredible building sites with stunning layered long-range mountain views. Multiple creeks meander through the property, with the most prominent being Bobs Creek. Approximately 36.53 acres are within a conservation easement. The conservation easements are primarily surrounding creek riparian zones, leaving plenty of usable acreage for your vision. Conservation easement documents are available for review. Acreage is approximate and must be surveyed from larger tract before closing. Buyer is responsible for survey costs. Property has been priced accordingly. Access is via a 30-foot ROW from Fat Wall Road. Showings by appointment only. Preapproval or proof of funds must be provided with all showings.
