About this home

Don't miss this rare opportunity to own 61 +- spectacular acres in the heart of western NC horse country! This beautiful property is diverse in both topography, and potential uses. +-20 acres of prime bottomland is currently in tomato propduction (on an annual lease), with another +-40 forested acres rising gently above the fields, offering two gentle knobs with numerous private and picturesque homesite options to choose from. The views from these potential homesites would be excellent, overlooking the lower fields and mountains beyond. The property features extensive frontage along Mountain Creek. The options presented by this land are plentiful; keep it in agriculture production for income, subdivide into multiple tracts, repurpose the fields for equestrian use, convert it into a legacy estate property, or utilize any combination of the above. Overall, the land is exceptionally private, and access is easy from multiple entrance points along paved Tryon Rd. All considered, this property's close proximity to Rutherfordton, Tryon International Equestrian Center, US-74, and beyond, combined with it's usability and privacy, make it a truly special offering on the market.
