This exceptional 31± acre tract offers a hard-to-find combination of scenic beauty, usable land, and recreational opportunities. Accessed from Tallent Road via a well maintained entrance road, the property welcomes you with a mix of open fields, timber, water, and long-range mountain views. A potential homesite overlooks the pond and enjoys impressive mountain views, including Dobbins Knob. This site has been confirmed for a septic drain field and well but no permit obtained by the seller. This is a great starting point for a future home or mountain retreat. The land includes several open and tillable fields, with approximately 5 acres enclosed by solar-powered fencing and three access gates. Near the homesite, a stocked pond measuring 15+- feet deep creates both a beautiful setting and a place to enjoy fishing. A nearby block storage building offers convenient space for equipment and supplies. The property also features an established orchard with pear, apple, plum, and fig trees. A bridged creek provides easy access to another open field, while an extensive trail system winds throughout the property, making it ideal for horseback riding, ATVs, hiking, or simply exploring your own land. A healthy mix of pine and hardwood timber provides wildlife habitat and natural character across the tract. Whether you’re looking for a homesite, mini-farm, recreational property, or a place to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends, this property offers plenty of possibilities. Conveniently located near Lake James, Lake Rhodhiss, Morganton, and I-40, you’ll enjoy the privacy of a rural setting while remaining close to area amenities and outdoor recreation.
