About this home

A timeless Tryon estate blending historic craftsmanship with modern comfort on 13.77 acres. Originally an 1880 two-room dog-trot log cabin, the home evolved through a 1927 expansion and a 1963 modern addition that introduced vaulted ceilings and open living spaces. The main residence offers 3,194 heated square feet plus a 340-square-foot loft suite, complemented by a separate 1,203-square-foot two-bedroom guest house. Features include three fireplaces, a great room with stone chimney, pine floors, and a brand new heat pump. Outdoor living areas feature two patios, tiered gardens, and a pool with new liner. Equestrian amenities include a three-stall barn, tack and feed rooms, multiple fenced pastures, a dry lot, and easy access to the FETA trail system.
