    About this House

    Escape to your own slice of Western North Carolina wilderness. This 31.65 acre property adjoins NC Wildlife Resources Gamelands (P21-63, 78.5+ acres), giving you a rare buffer of protected land right at your doorstep. The headwaters of Big Bradley Creek are on the property, and a wide creek winds through the land, adding to its natural character.
    Appraised at $705,000 in November 2025, this property has been sustainably logged by the current owner, who had originally planned to place a conservation easement and establish a tree farm. That easement was never finalized, which means the opportunity is still on the table for the next owner to put one in place and take advantage of the tax benefits that come with it.
    Access is via Early Road, a gravel road with a 20 foot wide easement (note: there is no official road maintenance agreement in place). Several logging roads are already cut into the property, offering a head start toward multiple home sites, some of which boast long range views. Duke Energy service is available at the road.
    The possibilities here are wide open. Build your dream home, create a family compound, develop and sell individual lots, or preserve the land and enjoy the tax advantages of a conservation easement. However you envision it, this property offers the space and setting to make it happen.
