This former mountain farm is the perfect place to build a vacation home or a secluded year-round home. The 1920s era farmhouse has not been lived in many years and is likely a teardown. A small stream runs alongside of Will Wilson Road which divides the property. The approximately 15 +/- acres lay surprisingly well and are mostly usable. The approximately 2-acre tract located across the road from the house has a former home site with a source of water located nearby. The property also has saleable timber that could be harvested if desired. This listing offers numerous potential home sites throughout the property. The barn located on the west side of the property needs some roof repairs but is otherwise in good condition and has had electricity run to it. Several acres of pasture surround the barn and could easily be bush hogged to bring back into full use. The beautiful mountain town of Burnsville is 17 miles away. Burnsville features multiple restaurants, grills and even a popular brewery. If you love the outdoors, this property is the place for you. The pristine waters of Cane River are a short 5-minute drive away. Hunting, fishing, hiking and camping are in abundant supply without even leaving the county. If your dream is a quiet life away from the hustle and bustle, you need to see this property.

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.

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.
