Tucked away in the heart of Yancey's sought-after South Toe community, this charming small mountain getaway offers the opportunity to create your own peaceful retreat. Situated on 2.05± acres, the property features a creek flowing behind the home, with the acreage extending across the creek into a wooded setting that invites exploration, relaxation, and the sounds of nature. Conveniently located on state-maintained Lower Browns Creek Road, you'll enjoy easy year-round access with just a short drive to Town of Burnsville. Originally built in 1967, this property offers approximately 400 square feet and is ready for its next chapter. A new roof installed in late 2025 provides an excellent start for the next owner, while recent improvements by the current owner include drywall work & fresh paint in portions of home. The home features a covered front porch, living room, kitchen with electric range and refrigerator, one bedroom, a bonus room, and a bathroom that needs to be renovated and awaits completion. An additional room located just off the kitchen serves as the laundry and storage area. (Please use caution when accessing this room during showings, as it is currently being used for storage and has not been renovated.) This property is an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to renovate and customize a mountain retreat, investment property, or vacation getaway. The home will require repairs and updates, including the installation of a permanent heating system. According to the owner, the original propane furnace is no longer in use, the propane tank has been removed, and the existing ductwork requires repair. Owner currently uses a space heater when he visits in the winter. Because there is currently no functioning permanent heat source, the property is not being marketed as having heated square footage. A window air conditioning unit in the living room provides seasonal cooling. Water is supplied by a spring located on the neighboring property, with deeded water rights that will are provided in the MLS documents for buyer review. According to the owner, the septic system is located behind the home. Septic records have been requested from the Yancey County Health Department but have not yet been received. Buyers are strongly encouraged to conduct a septic inspection, along with any other inspections they deem appropriate, to fully evaluate the property. The property is located within a mapped flood plain. According to the owner, Hurricane Helene altered the geography of the creek behind the home; however, to the best of the owner's knowledge, floodwaters did not enter the residence. Buyers are encouraged to perform their own due diligence regarding flood zone designation, flood insurance requirements, and any future improvements they may wish to make. Due to the property's current condition, including the absence of a permanent heating system, cash or renovation financing may be the most appropriate financing options. If you've been searching for an affordable mountain property with a beautiful creek, usable acreage, and the opportunity to bring your own vision to life, 172 Lower Browns Creek Road is ready for its next owner. Property is being sold AS-IS. Buyers are encouraged to perform all inspections and due diligence prior to closing, no septic records on file with Yancey County Health Department.

Some mountain properties have views, others offer water, usable land, or an easy drive to town. This one has all four and that combination is what makes it genuinely rare in Western North Carolina. Approximately 20+/- acres of open, rolling pasture unfold beneath mountain views in every direction. A creek-fed pond of roughly 1.5 acres sits near the center, while more than 2,000 feet of Bolens Creek forms the south boundary with full water access. Enjoy quiet mornings on the covered porch as mist rises from the pond, and evenings filled with the sound of the creek, wildlife in the fields, and summer fireflies. Despite the peaceful setting, downtown Burnsville is only four minutes away, the grocery store is two minutes away, and Asheville is approximately forty minutes away. At the center of the property is a custom timber frame home completed in 2024. Deep red cedar siding, a cupola, and a long covered front porch create a memorable exterior. Inside, cathedral tongue-and-groove pine ceilings, exposed timber posts and beams, oversized windows, and iron ring chandeliers create a bright, warm living space. The navy kitchen features a farmhouse apron sink, six-burner gas range, cedar sliding barn door, and walk-in pantry. Designed with both comfort and quality in mind, the home includes no-VOC ECOS stains and finishes, Greenguard Gold-certified flooring, spray foam insulation, whole-home water filtration, a whole-home generator, tankless water heater, underground 1,000-gallon propane tank, and Charter high-speed fiber. The home offers three bedrooms, one full bath, and one half bath. The primary suite includes a premium stone soaking tub and walk-in closet. The lower level includes an oversized bedroom with tall ceilings and a large walk-in closet, a second bedroom, and a spacious flex room ideal for homeschooling, an office, studio, or playroom. The rear covered porch overlooks the pond and pastures and includes two infrared heaters for year-round enjoyment. For equestrian or homestead use, the property is truly turnkey. Connected to the home is a fully finished, insulated barn with six European-style stalls, Nelson automatic waterers, heated wash bay, generous tack room, Dutch doors to pasture, and a picture window overlooking the stall aisle from the living area. The land is fenced and cross-fenced with in-ground pasture waterers, run-in shelters, and frost-free hydrants. An established orchard includes 27 fruit trees, including apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, plums, and apricots. The organically managed homestead also includes an enclosed raised-bed garden, two chicken coops with solar automatic doors, garden shed, children’s playscape, and covered sandbox. A substantial pole barn provides a concrete-floored main building, enclosed lean-tos, three overhead doors including a 16-foot RV-height door, conditioned flex rooms, workshop, spacious loft, and 220V service. In a scenic spot above the pond, a separate 16-by-24 schoolhouse is heated, cooled, and filled with windows, offering flexible space for a homeschool room, office, studio, or guest retreat. This is a rare property that ends the compromise. The views without isolation. The land without the impracticality. The privacy without the long drive to town. Whether your vision is horses, homesteading, room to breathe, or simply waking up to the Blue Ridge every morning, it was built with intention and obvious love, and it shows even better in person than in photographs.

Tucked into the gentle folds of near hills at the feet of the Black Mountains, this quiet retreat unfolds across nearly six acres of pastures, woods, and cleared garden land. A robust creek marks the property’s beginning, its voice a constant, soothing presence that reaches the home and lingers in the air. Tiny streams thread through the acreage, whispering through the grass and trees. At the heart of the land sits a lovely two-bedroom home, where a wood stove offers deep winter warmth and a mini split provides summer comfort. The kitchen is decently sized, well-suited for putting up the garden’s harvest or simmering a slow meal while the creek runs beyond the window. One section of the property is shaded by enormous old trees, standing like patient elders beside a very old but still sturdy barn, weathered, honest, and full of stories. The true soul of the home, however, is the screened back porch. From here, the view rolls out across the yard, over the stream, and off toward the semi hidden hills. It is the kind of place where morning coffee lasts an hour and evening fireflies keep you company. Just steps away, a separate one-bedroom, one-bath cabin offers its own magic: a large sliding door frames the same sweeping vista of stream, yard, and far hills, bringing the outside in. Whether as a guest retreat, an artist’s studio, or a quiet escape, it mirrors the main home’s best feature: an unbroken connection to this peaceful, water-song land.

15.233 ACRES with OVER 1/4 MILE of CANE RIVER FRONTAGE & only 5 MINUTES TO TOWN but without town taxes/zoning! TROUT FISHING PARADISE and NO RESTRICTIONS! Flood water from Hurricane Helene washed away debris & underbrush along the river leaving really incredible exposed bedrock, sandy beaches, and large river rock banks. It is better than before & now easy to walk along the river's edge! Easily drive right down to the water where you'll find a large cleared area that would be prime for gardening, or pasture for grazing. The rest of the ground has nice mature timber. Gentle areas in the woods if you'd prefer a home in the shade. The water is as good as it gets. Crystal clear & flowing from the west face of the Black Mountains, it is rocky & rushing in areas, but there are also SWIMMING HOLES - unfortunately you'll have to share with trout and bass! The property lies at the very end of a private road. With proximity to town, lengthy river frontage, fishable waters, pasture etc. - extremely rare offering! Last 16 pictures are post-Helene.

Roughly 15 acres of unrestricted mountain land in rural Yancey County is an ideal retreat for anyone seeking privacy, recreation, and the beauty of a mature Southern Appalachian forest. With direct state-maintained frontage along Riddle Branch Road and power already on the property, it's easy to get to. Riddle Branch itself follows the road, adding the calming sound of running water as you enter the property. The land rises from about 3,100 feet at the road to roughly 3,590 feet atop Holloway Ridge. Terrain is mostly steep and fully wooded, making it best suited for hiking, camping, hunting, and long-term timber potential though there are a couple spots along the creek and in the power line easement that have less slope. The upland hardwood forest is well established, and the upper areas feature a diverse mix of mast-producing species including white oak, red oak, chestnut oak, and hickory. In the upper cove and along the east slope, poplars experienced wind damage from Hurricane Helene, creating natural openings, wildlife habitat, and early-successional regeneration. This tract is rich with deer trails, scrapes, and rubs, reflecting the strong local wildlife presence. Several large rock outcroppings provide natural interest, views through the trees, and quiet places to explore. A small old tobacco barn with small stalls beneath it stands near the road, offering a nostalgic reminder of traditional mountain agriculture and potential storage area if repaired. For those seeking a rugged, raw, and authentically Appalachian landscape, perfect for recreation, conservation, or a quiet escape, this property offers true mountain character.
