Tucked away 40 minutes north of Asheville, this extraordinary 35-acre sanctuary at 1061 Indian Trail is a true Appalachian homestead rich with character and heritage. Having known only three owners throughout its history, the estate offers an irreplaceable sense of place, completely surrounded by the pristine, protected wilderness of Pisgah National Forest. Accessed via a scenic Forest Service gravel road, the land transitions from lush timber to roughly 10 cleared acres complete with an organic garden, mature muscadine vines, and producing blueberry bushes. The native wildlife creates an enchanting backdrop, with regular sightings of bald eagles, black bears, and rare fireflies. Flowing from above the property onto and through the land, Hampton Creek cascades down to a waterfall that can be heard right from the house before making its way to the private trout pond, which features a small dock with a ladder for easy swimming and kayaking access. The main residence is thoughtfully designed to showcase the idyllic surroundings. It features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, including main-floor bedrooms that look directly out over the calm waters of the pond. Two of the main-level bathrooms have been recently renovated, blending modern comfort with mountain charm. Below, the basement provides extra flexible space complete with a third full bathroom, a newly finished bonus room, and abundant storage space. The heart of the home extends outdoors to a sweeping, screened-in wraparound porch that captures the crisp mountain air, alongside a convenient attached single-car carport. Nearby, a historic root cellar built directly into the hillside offers a fascinating nod to traditional mountain living. A second home on the property—a light-filled guest cabin with a proven track record as a successful short-term rental—provides flexible living options or instant income potential. The cabin features a smart, two-story layout with an open-concept kitchen, living area, and half bath upstairs, while three bedrooms and a full bathroom rest quietly on the lower level. Its private porch sits nestled in the canopy, offering another elevated view of the trout pond and an additional equipment shed nearby to store farm or lawn gear. Beyond the property line, outdoor adventure is practically infinite. The iconic Appalachian Trail is located just a short distance away, while nearby Wolf Laurel and Hatley Point provide exceptional resort amenities, including golf, tennis, dining, and fitness facilities. Hatley Point also features a newly renovated lodge, winter skiing, and a new mountain bike park.

Paradise on a bluff overlooking the French Broad River adjoining US Forest Service Land. Paint Rock Farm is a magical property, easy to get to, yet a lifetime removed from the stress of city living. With approximately 150 acres including nearly a MILE on the French Broad River and approximately 12 acres of flat laying open fields, this is a dream property. It has been operated successfully as a wedding/event venue for years and you can build upon this foundation. Tucked away from view of the state maintained paved road, the land offers a multitude of options. Existing improvements include underground power and high speed internet along with a strong well. Eleven "glamping" cabins provide overnight accommodations in a rustic chic setting. Each is fully enclosed with sumptuous bedding, classic barn interior, metal roofs, views and an outdoor deck. Six of these sit on the bluff looking down on the river below. Awaken to the sound of the river while sipping coffee on the deck. The other five are on the edge of the flower strewn field. Try counting the trillions of stars in the night sky. A large updated barn with catering kitchen has provided seating for more than 200 at events with dance floor and sound system. A very high quality bathhouse provides guests restroom and bathing facilities with hot water via a passive solar boosted system. The "Caretaker's Cabin" is a comfy 1BR/1BA house with kitchen and loft, ideal for an on site manager. Next to this you'll find a true "tiny home" of approximately 200 s.f. with sleeping loft, kitchen and bath. Other improvements include six RV sites of with utilities.

The abundance of flat fields provides parking for well over 100 vehicles. Approximately 111 acres are in a conservation easement that allow for hiking, camping, trails and hunting, but otherwise restrict development in that portion meaning it will always be pristine woodlands full of wildlife as your backyard. Sellers will place some very light restrictions on the remainder. In addition to the two existing 9 bedroom septic systems, permits are on hand for two more septic systems for four and two bedrooms, so come build your dream home. This property makes the perfect homestead/organic farm, event venue, down to earth RV park or family compound. ONLY financially qualified parties should inquire, and proof of funds are required prior to showing. Showing times may be limited due to ongoing rental activity, so plan ahead.

True to its Victorian character, the home features THREE porches, including a charming wraparound porch that provides the perfect spot to relax and take in the surrounding landscape.

The grounds also feature a dedicated firepit area, creating an inviting gathering space for guests, family and friends. With its beautiful landscaping, mature trees and multiple outdoor living areas, the property could be especially well suited to a STR concept focused on wedding parties, retreats, family gatherings or special events.

Recent improvements include fresh interior and exterior paint, new flooring throughout much of the home, a new HVAC system and a roof installed in 2018. The home is being sold furnished, with only a few personal items excluded, making it an especially convenient opportunity for a buyer looking to continue the existing rental operation. An additional opportunity awaits below the home with an unfinished basement featuring exterior-only access. The space has a concrete floor in over half of it and full height ceilings. It provides excellent potential for future expansion, additional storage, a workshop or, subject to applicable approvals and permitting, the possibility of increasing the home's bedroom and bathroom capacity. The existing space adds flexibility and potential value for a future owner. Historic Saluda offers the unique opportunity to slow down and enjoy a charming mountain community filled with locally owned shops, restaurants and historic character. Outdoor recreation is close at hand, with hiking, ziplining and other mountain adventures nearby. Whether you're looking for a mountain getaway, a full-time residence or an established investment property with a proven rental history, this special Saluda property offers a rare combination of historic character, privacy, beautifully landscaped grounds, multiple porches, high-elevation mountain living and future potential — all just minutes from the heart of downtown Saluda.
