Description

Two houses on 11.77 acres with mountain views & close to downtown Tryon...Yes, please! The original home, built in 1929, has all of the character of the era. It's nestled in the trees with beautiful views (year round & more in the winter). Waiting for someone to love it again and it's potential is grand. The second house, built in 1992, has a two story great room w/ a loft overlooking. There are two large bedrooms and 2 full baths - one on each floor. It has a spacious walk-down basement with high ceilings, windows and a garage door for ease of use. Basement could easily be finished for additional living space. This could be a great opportunity for multi-generational living or live in one and use the other as an investment. Approximately 9.77 acres are part of a Conservation Easement conveyed to the Pacolet Area Conservancy, Inc. Both homes will require quite a bit of work due to the amount of deferred maintenance. Bring your vision and return this special property back to it's glory!
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from October 05, 2023

    "We have a large community of horse owners. Lots of unemployed former textile workers - and beautiful hill country and a large population of retirees. Low traffic. "

    "It’s a horse community with lovely mountains and little shops and winding roads. It’s quite full of retirees and equally populated by lifetime residents. It does not take long to feel at home. "

    "This is a semi-rural area. Most homes are outside the city limits and are an acre or more. Many homes are mobile homes and the rest of one story single family dwellings. As such, most homeowners are not considered part of a community - and tend to celebrate or socialize with friends either from church or from the local horse community. "

    "Beautiful area with lots of horse farms and vintage Tryon homes. Close to town yet you feel as if you are very far away. Many homes have mountain views with ample acreage with pastures and wooded settings. I like the area so much I own a rental property in the area. I consider very desirable location."

    "Amazing schools. As a foreign service family we move often and send our kids to many schools. Polk county ranks at the top for us. Both kids are thriving here academically and socially. The town is safe and clean and our kids enjoy a level of freedom and independence unheard of these days. We love it. "

    "Lived in tryon for some time. I moved back north. Not a very friendly community. Best if you have strong ties here. People originally from around this area feel as if people moving here is not good for them. Poor economy. Businesses constantly failing. And it is true there is an alcohol problem as many people are bored and unhappy in tryon especially people under 50 or so. Not a good place for children. This town should also be red flagged as a gang stalking community. Ideal for retirees who don't go out much."
