    Description

    Riverfront property ready to build on the Tuckasegee River. This beautiful riverfront lot offers the perfect setting for your dream home or a lucrative vacation rental. Nestled on the banks of the scenic Tuckasegee River, this property comes with city water access, sewer access, and power, making it truly build-ready. According to FEMA, the designated building area is not in a floodplain, providing peace of mind and flexibility for development. FEMA documents are attached. Anglers will love that this stretch of the Tuckasegee is hatchery-supported and renowned for trout fishing. The location is also a standout—just one mile from Western Carolina University (WCU) and a short drive to downtown Sylva, offering both convenience and charm. A greenway across the river has been approved. Whether you're envisioning a full-time residence or a vacation rental investment, this lot checks all the boxes. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of riverfront paradise!

      "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."

      "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."
