    About this House

    8.12 WOODED ACRES JUST OUTSIDE FRANKLIN WITH EXCITING RESIDENTIAL POSSIBILITIES! Conveniently situated along 441 N/Sylva Road and directly across from Vencinos, this property offers a unique combination of accessibility, wooded mountain terrain, and close proximity to downtown Franklin. Access is from the southbound lane of 441 North, and the nearby Franklin exit provides a quick connection to shopping, dining, services, and all the conveniences of town. The property features two distinct terrain areas that open the door to a variety of possibilities. The lower portion is virtually flat due to previous excavation, while the upper portion follows a wooded ridge line, providing additional elevation, privacy, and a distinctly different mountain setting. With 8.12 acres, the combination of level ground, wooded acreage, and ridge terrain offers buyers plenty to consider when planning future residential use. Zoned Medium Density Residential, the property may offer potential for a private homesite, multiple residences, residential subdivision, or a thoughtfully planned multiple detached dwelling units/cottage community, subject to applicable zoning, density, subdivision, access, utility, infrastructure, and governmental approvals. Whether you're looking for acreage for your own mountain property or exploring a larger residential development concept, this tract offers an interesting opportunity in a convenient Franklin-area location. Enjoy the benefits of being close to town while remaining outside the Franklin city limits. The property is located within Franklin's designated Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and currently benefits from county-only property taxes while remaining subject to applicable ETJ zoning regulations. 8.12 acres, convenient highway access, varied terrain, wooded surroundings, and minutes from Franklin—bring your vision and explore the possibilities!

      "Most events held in Franklin NC are old-fashioned and geared towards the elderly age group. Up to date technology is not widely used and internet is rarely available here. There is very little to do in Franklin for the 18 - 45 year old age range, unless you like to hike. Easy trip to make a Asheville though for fun. "
