Bring your vision and restore a true piece of North Carolina mountain history. This 1924 farmhouse is nestled on more than 29 acres of rolling countryside with frontage along bold Fletcher Creek, offering rushing rapids, cascading waterfalls, and outstanding trout fishing right on your own property. Opportunities like this are increasingly rare for buyers seeking acreage, stocked trout stream waterfront, and privacy in the North Carolina High Country. The home is currently no heat source and is being offered as a renovation project for those looking to restore and reimagine a classic farmhouse. With its original character, generous room sizes, and timeless architectural details, the home provides an exceptional foundation for a custom restoration. As an added bonus, Cat 5 wiring has already been run throughout the home, providing modern infrastructure for today's technology needs. Inside, you'll find hardwood and tiled floors, a spacious living room and family room, a kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, a main-level laundry room, and four generously sized bedrooms upstairs. Step outside onto the expansive wraparound covered porch and enjoy the sights and sounds of bold Fletcher Creek a stocked trout stream flowing through the property. The acreage offers endless possibilities for hunting, trout fishing, hobby farming, horseback riding, ATV adventures, gardening, or simply creating a private mountain estate surrounded by nature. Despite its peaceful and secluded setting, the property is located just one minute from US Highway 421, providing exceptional convenience without the noise of traffic. Boone and Wilkesboro are both less than 20 minutes away with West Jefferson about 25 minutes, offering easy access to shopping, dining, healthcare, and outdoor recreation. Home is being sold as is.
