About This Property

Discover the perfect blend of peaceful country living and convenient access to Asheville, Brevard, and Hendersonville. Six parcels make up this multi generational 59 +/- acre parcel. It is just minutes from the Turkey Pen entrance of Pisgah National Forest—an outdoor lover’s paradise with hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking right at your doorstep. Approximately 20+ acres are gentle and level terrain. Whether you're envisioning a private estate, equestrian retreat, or working farm, this land offers the freedom to bring your vision to life. Enrolled in both the Wildlife Conservation Land Program and the Present-Use Value Program, the property also provides valuable tax deferment benefits. At its center sits a well-maintained brick ranch home, surrounded by open fields perfect for grazing, riding, or future home sites. A peaceful pond adds to the charm, offering a serene place to unwind and soak in the natural beauty. Multiple potential building sites. Ideal for a family estate or homesteading and farming.

About the Neighborhood

Homes for sale in 28759 place buyers in Mills River, one of Henderson County's most scenic and rapidly growing communities, situated in the broad river valley between the Blue Ridge and Pisgah ridgelines approximately 15 miles south of Asheville via I-26. The residential landscape features newer construction communities, custom homes on pastoral valley lots, and established ranches reflecting Mills River's evolution from a primarily agricultural community into one of Western North Carolina's most desirable residential addresses. The Mills River Park, the Town of Mills River's greenway network, and direct French Broad River access provide exceptional outdoor recreation, while the Pisgah National Forest's recreational gateway, including the Davidson River corridor's celebrated trout fishing and Sliding Rock natural waterslide, is within 20 minutes via US-276. Sierra Nevada Brewing Company's East Coast flagship brewery and taproom anchors a growing craft beverage and agritourism corridor along Silvers Road. The 28759 real estate market has experienced significant appreciation as buyers discover the valley's pastoral character, Blue Ridge views, and exceptional I-26 connectivity to Asheville in approximately 20 minutes, representing one of Henderson County's most compelling residential investment opportunities.
