About this House

This historical home was hit by the flooding from Hurricane Helene yet has so much to offer with 1.1 acres and all the river access you can imagine! With a beautiful location right on the Pigeon River you have kayaking and fly fishing right out your back door. Just a 1 mile walk into town you have the feel of country living just minutes aways from all the amenities Canton has to offer. A short 25 minute drive and you will find yourself with all the amenities Asheville has to offer with its bustling food and beverage scene and easy access to the Asheville Airport. So much potential as you get to design how you want your home to look and feel. Maybe don't rebuild, instead turn this property into a water sport complex for your next business venture. Think of the possibilities when you buy both 21 & 61 Riverbend Rd!

    "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.
