    Description

    Nestled within the gated community of Cullowhee Forest, this rare 11.34-acre offering combines two contiguous lots into a private mountain parcel with a stunning on-property waterfall more than 20 feet tall, nearly 500 feet of Coggins Creek flowing through the land, and expansive year-round, long-range views attainable with tree-trimming — the type of offering that is an increasingly uncommon combination on the Highlands–Cashiers Plateau. With a high-yield well in place and underground power, the topography offers a homesite that captures sweeping views, set to a soundtrack of running water and surrounded by lush woodlands.

    Cullowhee Forest is known for its generous acreage and low-density planning, with quiet, wooded roads that reinforce its peaceful setting, wrapped in native flora, where local wildlife lazily meanders the land. Owners enjoy deeded access to the West Fork of the Tuckasegee River and the 75-foot Hatcher Falls, providing exceptional opportunities for fishing, exploration, and connection to the outdoors. High-speed fiber-optic internet ensures modern convenience, making the property well-suited for year-round living.

    The broader Highlands–Cashiers Plateau delivers cool summer temperatures, abundant waterfalls, hiking and biking trails, trout waters, golf, boutique shopping, and a growing arts and dining scene. Located approximately 25 minutes from either Cashiers or Sylva, the setting offers privacy without isolation. Nearest dining and recreation include The Local, Happ’s Place, Lake Glenville’s Pines Recreation Area, and the Jackson County Aquatic Center, and just down the road are an abundance of additional options to discover.

    Year-round access enhances the property’s appeal, with Asheville Regional Airport about 90 minutes away and major hubs including Atlanta, Charlotte, and Greenville within a two- to three-hour drive.

    Opportunities that combine acreage, long-range views, and multiple water features within a gated community are increasingly rare. This property offers the scale, setting, and flexibility to create a true mountain retreat or full-time residence in one of Western North Carolina’s most enduring landscapes.

      "Not a lot for kids to do here. Most move away after high school. Otherwise it’s a nice place with beautiful Scenery."
    • Judygc11
      "There are several choices of schools here. There are active after school choices such as those at local churches and the Boys and Girls Club. There’s a good library and a nice recreation center. Community events are family friendly. It gets very cold here in winter which can result in delayed school openings."
    • Monkeyman152002
      "there aren't any community events that go on here. it's too small and remote. it needs to build up some more"
    • Sportysmh15
      "Lots of student drivers and cars. They are sometimes reckless and can be dangerous to pets if they are not leashes or watched properly. However, Cullowhee is a beautiful region offering lots of hiking trails , beautiful scenery, and has plenty of room to run for our furry friends! There are also parks and outdoor restaurants that dogs are allowed to visit, but overall Cullowhee is a wonderful place to have dogs. Plus it is full of mountain scenery to see not only wonderful views of the mountain beauty, but of those beautiful pets as well! Cullowhee is most definitely a dog friendly place!"

      "I have lived in the house as a renter. It is a wonderful space. The best place I have ever lived. There is a fire pit next to the creek in front of the property and the neighbors are very nice. The location is very quiet and private. there are only three other houses on the street and this one is at the very end of Timber Wolf Trail with no possibility of a house ever going up on the other side."
