Downtown Hendersonville is approximately six miles away, with the French Broad River, Mills River, and the Ecusta Recreational Trail all closeby. This is more than a house in the woods. It is a place to breathe, slow down, and feel at home in nature. A private sanctuary on 2.26 acres, surrounded by trees, wildlife, and the sounds of the creek, with all the beauty of Western North Carolina right outside your door.
