Set on approximately 4.5 private acres in Canton, this thoughtfully expanded 1947 stone cottage offers both convenience and retreat — just minutes to I-40 for easy access to Asheville and Waynesville, yet tucked away in a peaceful natural setting. Between 2006-2007, the current owners carefully preserved the character of the original 2BR/1BA home while adding over 2,200 square feet of living space, resulting in a spacious 4-bedroom home with office and 3.5 baths (additional 1 bed + 1 bath accounted for in listing is the garage apartment). Original flooring and trim remain in beautiful condition, blending seamlessly with custom finishes throughout. The main living area features vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, open dining space, and a striking double-sided wood-burning fireplace shared with the primary suite. The generously sized primary bedroom opens to the expansive front deck, positioned to capture light while maintaining privacy. The lower level offers a second living area, bedroom, and full bath — ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or flexible use. Beyond the main residence, the property includes a detached two-car garage with a one-bedroom apartment (tenant in place; lease details available) providing income potential. A two-story barn with tractor storage and workshop space sits alongside pasture areas suitable for a variety of uses. This unique property offers space, flexibility, and opportunity — a rare combination of privacy, character, and functionality for those seeking more than a traditional neighborhood setting. The seller would like to address flood plain concerns with the following statement: Portions of the 4.5-acre parcel are located within a designated flood plain, primarily affecting the pasture areas. 18 years ago, the residence and improvements were not within the mapped flood zone. Following updated FEMA mapping after major storm events in Haywood County, a small portion of the home’s lower level and garage apartment is now indicated to be within the 500-year flood zone, but not the 100-year flood zone (approximately a few inches at the lowest point). The sellers have enjoyed this property for over 18 years. A nearby culvert has also been replaced with a viaduct, improving water flow beneath I-40. Buyers are encouraged to review all available information and verify to their satisfaction.

A truly rare offering along the Catawba River, this remarkable approximately 109+/-acre tract presents an exceptional opportunity for both estate buyers and long-term land investors seeking privacy, water frontage, and scale in one of Western North Carolina’s most desirable natural corridors. Properties of this size with direct river frontage are increasingly scarce, making this tract a standout acquisition for those who understand the long-term value of land. The property offers an impressive combination of seclusion, natural beauty, and versatility. Predominantly wooded with logging roads already in place, the land provides a private and peaceful setting ideal for a luxury estate, generational family compound, or recreational retreat, while still offering meaningful upside for investors looking to land-bank or hold a unique riverfront asset. The expansive acreage allows for multiple potential homesites, trails, and recreational uses without sacrificing privacy or views. The Catawba River frontage adds a distinctive and irreplaceable element—offering scenic views, natural buffers, and recreational enjoyment such as kayaking, fishing, and wildlife observation. Riverfront land of this scale provides not only lifestyle appeal, but also long-term intrinsic value that is increasingly difficult to replicate due to environmental protections and limited supply. There are no known easements, encroachments, or conservation restrictions currently affecting the property, and no known severance of timber, mineral, or development rights, allowing future owners flexibility in how the land is utilized. A survey/plat is available, with acreage reported at approximately 109 acres, supporting clarity for due diligence and planning. Utilities such as electric service, water access, cable, and high-speed internet are available nearby, enhancing the feasibility of estate development while maintaining the property’s rural character. As typical with land of this nature, septic evaluations should be completed during the buyer’s due diligence period. Whether you are an estate buyer seeking a once-in-a-generation riverfront setting or an investor recognizing the long-term value of large-acreage Catawba River land, this property delivers a rare blend of privacy, water frontage, and future potential. Opportunities like this are increasingly limited—secure your position in one of the region’s most enduring natural assets.
