About this home

Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees and just minutes from charming Downtown Waynesville, this rare private estate offers a potential of 5,800+ square feet of an extraordinary opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat, family compound, or multi-generational living property. The main residence has been taken down to the studs and is ready for a visionary owner to bring new life to every level. Whether you're dreaming of a luxury mountain estate, private homestead, or income-producing property, the possibilities here are truly endless. Positioned above the expansive garage is a nearly completed guest house renovation featuring separate living quarters, kitchen facilities, and private access. The oversized garage is a standout feature, offering exceptional space for RV storage, multiple vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop use, hobbies, or business needs. A circular drive and generous parking areas provide convenience and flexibility for guests and gatherings alike. Enjoy the feeling of being tucked away in your own private woodland setting while remaining only moments from shopping, dining, healthcare, and all the amenities of Downtown Waynesville. Opportunities like this are seldom available—a unique estate property with room to dream, create, and make entirely your own. Buyers are encouraged to verify all improvements and intended use.
