(PART OF ASHE COUNTY PARCEL ID 122994122127 TBD APPX. 5 ACRES).....Unbelievable opportunity to obtain a truly unique high country mountain property. TBD Approximately 5 acres with historic "1919" rough sawn lumber built house and outbuildings, located only about 425' from the historic New River, and about three miles from the Blueridge Parkway access, ("shorter" as the crow flys). The Approx. 5 acres will be Surveyed off to define boundaries prior to Deed development. Ashe County New River Access Park is directly across the river from this property, where you can launch kayaks, canoes, tubes and floats on the popular shallow, clean New River. The house is shown on Ashe County public record as being originally built in 1919, and is framed with local rough sawn hardwood and beams. House was designed as 32'2"x20'2" main level open room, with built in hardwood ladder up to second floor open sleeping loft appx. 32.2"x15'. The property displays remodeling over the years, and did experience damages from Hurricane Helene, however repairs were made and new green metal roof installed. Great opportunity for someone who values old style beam rough sawn construction and can appreciate a blank slate to renovate /make it their own. The interior of the house has been stripped out, down to the bare wood. See attached interior pictures. This property borders the Bare Hollow residential development of acreage sized lots, of similar acreage size, and larger lots, and this Appx. (to be surveyed) will adhere to the same restrictive covenants, with additional deed restrictions by Seller. House originally was served by historic artesian spring water system, with pump up to house elevation, which would need to be repaired/restored, and originally had one bathroom and small kitchen with sink, both of which have been stripped out with the Hurricane Helene damage repairs. After Hurricane Helene damages, cleanup of the trees, renovation of the private road, with new grading and new gravel was performed so that access to this property is now readily accessible with even a conventional TWD vehicle. Access to this property from the Bare Hollow S/D road will be by deeded easement on the Sellers private road. The property also includes an old open shed, out buildings and personal possessions from prior owner including rough sawn lumber stacked in the open garden shed. With acceptable purchase Offer, the Seller is willing to consider including the prior owner's two garden tractors, 16' boat, large diesel engine, Stanley wood oven/stove, Honda 250 motorcycle, large LP gas tank with appx. 60% fill, and etc. that are still stored in outbuildings. All property and possessions will be sold "as is", and Seller extends no warranties. For this sale, the personal possessions are considered to be of minimal /no value. The property is heavily wooded with predominately hardwood trees, and extensive Rhododendron and Mountain Laurel. Wildlife abounds on this mountain land, with trail cameras showing visits by deer, wild turkeys, fox, opossum, raccoon, various birds, and even a porcupine. See the attached pictures. Area is somewhat a wildlife sanctuary, with Bare Hollow acreage development, along the New River, prohibiting hunting. See Map for approx. 5 acres which will be Surveyed off from parcel at time of sale.
