There is something quietly compelling about a home that works with the landscape rather than against it. Tucked into the trees, this one-of-a-kind berm home offers a rare blend of privacy, efficiency, and connection to its natural surroundings. Set on more than 7 acres of mature hardwood forest, the property provides room to explore and enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape, including a creek tucked within the wooded acreage. Surrounded by a canopy of mature trees, the property feels hidden away from the world while remaining convenient to the outdoor recreation, mountain biking, hiking, and river adventures that make this area so desirable. Designed to be integrated into the hillside, the home creates a unique living experience that is both comfortable and distinctive. Warm wood walls and exposed beams bring character and texture to the interior, while large windows and skylights invite natural light into the living spaces. The open-concept design encourages gathering and conversation, anchored by a propane wood stove that adds warmth and ambiance throughout the seasons. Outside, a covered front porch overlooks a fenced courtyard, creating a welcoming outdoor living space that feels both private and functional. Beyond the home, the wooded acreage offers opportunities to wander, explore, and connect with nature. Above the home, the living roof and surrounding landscape further reinforce the property's connection to nature, while the wooded setting provides a peaceful backdrop in every direction. Whether you're seeking a primary residence, mountain retreat, artist's haven, or simply a home unlike anything else on the market, this property offers an opportunity to embrace a lifestyle defined by creativity, sustainability, and the beauty of Western North Carolina.

Welcome to the River House at 243 Poplar Lane. Some properties simply stop you in your tracks, and the River House is one of them. Set on 5.2 gently rolling, wooded acres along the French Broad River, this two-story home offers a rare combination of scale, character, and natural beauty that is hard to come by in Transylvania County. The home itself sits above the flood zone, giving you peace of mind while still enjoying one of the most coveted settings in the area. As with any property this close to the French Broad, portions of the land do experience occasional flooding, which only speaks to how intimately connected this property is to the river. It is the kind of tradeoff that people who love the water understand and embrace. The main level primary suite makes everyday living effortless, featuring a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins, a jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Heart pine floors run throughout the home, complemented by custom built-ins, double crown molding, and recessed lighting that give every room a warm and finished feel. The recently remodeled kitchen is the heart of the home, and a second full kitchen means hosting friends and family is genuinely easy. Both kitchens are outfitted with stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and breakfast bars. Two laundry rooms add the kind of practical convenience that guests and extended stays truly call for. Step outside and the acres open up around you. Evenings around the outdoor fire pit feel made for this setting, and the covered patios, deck, and balconies give you a front row seat to the river and the surrounding forest any time of day. All of this sits just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Brevard, five minutes from the trails of Pisgah National Forest, and only half a mile from the future Ecusta Trail. If you have been searching for a property with room to breathe, a true connection to the river, and easy access to everything that makes Brevard special, the River House deserves your full attention.

“A true Western North Carolina legacy property—120.94 acres of protected beauty featuring springs, a waterfall, abundant wildlife, and sweeping views, centered around a one-of-a-kind custom home designed to stand the test of time. Properties of this scale, privacy, and craftsmanship are rarely offered.” Accessed through a private electric gate, a gently sloping 3/4 of a mile paved drive winds through mature timber, gradually rising approximately 300 feet to the homesite atop Little Mountain. The land itself is both usable and thoughtfully improved, featuring a small creek, natural springs, and an established one-mile, 8-foot-wide loop trail—ideal for hiking or UTV access—providing easy enjoyment of nearly the entire property. A large equipment shed offers convenient storage, and the property benefits from a timber tax exemption. Surveyed in fall 2025, the acreage reflects careful stewardship and long-term vision. Completed in 2023, the custom-built residence is perfectly positioned to capture what may be some of the finest views in the area, overlooking the surrounding mountains and the French Broad River Valley. Offering approximately 3,847 square feet of heated living space, the home is complemented by thoughtfully designed outdoor living areas, including a 400-square-foot screened porch with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, and TV, a 400-square-foot covered patio with an additional fireplace, and a 170-square-foot open grilling deck—all designed to take full advantage of the property’s natural setting and year-round climate. Inside, the home reflects quality and intention throughout, with high-end finishes and features including Sub-Zero appliances, gas cooktop, walk-in pantry, dual fuel oven, horizontal gas fireplace, 2 bedrooms with 2 full baths and 1 half bath on the main level, and 2 bedrooms with full baths on the lower level. You will love the spacious attached 3 car garage. It also has a Generac whole-home propane generator. Extensive boulder hardscaping and professional landscaping further enhance the setting while maintaining a natural, mountain aesthetic. An additional 700 square feet of basement space provides flexibility for storage or future use. Despite its size and privacy, the property is remarkably accessible—located just 2.4 miles from Pisgah National Forest, 5.7 miles from downtown Brevard, 13.5 miles from Asheville Regional Airport, and within easy reach of DuPont State Recreational Forest, Hendersonville, and Gorges State Park. Whether enjoying the consistent mountain breeze from the porch, gathering around one of the outdoor fireplaces, or exploring the trail system with friends, this property offers a rare combination of scale, comfort, and livability. A truly exceptional opportunity to own one of the area’s most distinctive and private estates.
