Description

Tucked away on 5.45 unrestricted acres adjoining the U.S. Forest Service, this one-of-a-kind modern style home offers a rare combination of privacy, architectural character, and direct access to public land. From your own property, explore the surrounding forest or venture on to beautiful Lake Hiwassee, making this an exceptional setting for hiking, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the mountains. An abundance of windows fills the home with natural light and brings the beauty of the wooded setting inside. Major updates have already been completed, including new windows in 2020 and a new roof and siding in 2024, interior freshly painted. The full basement features a spacious two-car garage with plenty of room for vehicles, outdoor equipment, and additional storage and full bathroom. Outside, a small barn and open pasture create the perfect setup for farm animals, gardening, or a hobby mini farm. The property also includes a private shooting range, offering a convenient place for target practice without ever leaving home. Whether you're looking for a private full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a property with endless recreational right from your backyard, this unique mountain home offers the freedom of unrestricted acreage, the privacy of a U.S. Forest Service boundary, and an unbeatable connection to nature that is increasingly hard to find.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 99% nearby.

    "vehicle is a must have commodity to get around when you live out of the town city limits. Unless you like to walk or ride a bike. They're are few other drawbacks as well. Communicating by cell phone is not very good around the countryside, lacking cell towers. This is a problem, even trying to get on the internet. Somedays are better than others but still we have poor reception. Other than that we have the beautiful outdoors. We can enjoy going to the national forest for hiking, camping, hunting, fishing or just driving around the back roads and enjoy scenery as well as wildlife. Living outside the city's limit might have it's drawbacks but you take the good and the bad as it comes and make the best of it."

    "Murphy, NC is a small community with all the basics (yes, including Walmart). There is a lot to do or you can relax and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. Winters are NOT harsh, however, you will need warm clothing. You can enjoy the wildlife from your back deck or walk the many trails throughout the county. Although Murphy will have a Casino come the Summer of 2015; it will have little impact on the quality of life."
