About this House

What's unique:Varied terrainExpansive private acreage
Mountain Acreage with Unlimited Potential on Groundhog Road
Nestled in Haywood County, this 9.15-acre property offers an incredible opportunity for investors, developers, or homesteaders. The expansive, private acreage features varied terrain with immense potential for clearing custom homesites, establishing a mini-farm, or creating a secluded mountain retreat just outside Canton.
At the heart of the land sits a classic 1942 cottage featuring a 1,228 sq. ft. living area with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The home has been neglected over the years and requires a complete, top-to-bottom renovation, providing the perfect blank canvas for a rewarding fixer-upper project or a head start on utilities for a new build. Opportunities to secure over 9 private acres with this much equity upside are rare. Property sold as-is.

    "Iv lived here just over 4 years. It's quiet, except for your usual stuff like the occasional idiot flying through in their jacked up truck. You can walk to Two convenience stores and a few restaurants, a comic shop, a brew pub and a few other things. Far enough away from Asheville to be enjoyable but close enough to get there if nerd be.
