About This Property

Discover an extraordinary ~41-acre mixed-use estate offering unmatched potential for residential, commercial, or lifestyle development. This property combines natural beauty with strategic flexibility, making it ideal for investors, developers, or those seeking a private multi-purpose retreat.

Set against a backdrop of pastoral landscape and scenic mountain vistas, this estate provides significant open space for a wide range of possibilities—luxury residences, boutique commercial spaces, an event venue, or a thoughtfully planned, well segmented mixed-use community!

Fully fenced and rich in natural beauty, this estate offers sweeping fields of lush pasture, breathtaking views, and multiple hilltop sites! Building improvements include a 9,600 sf R&D warehouse equipped with hydronic slab heat, air conditioning, and suspended heat, a 2,160 sf Morton barn, and a single-family residence with an additional, oversized garage utilized as an auxiliary living unit.

Whether envisioned as a private compound, an income-generating development, or a legacy property, all structures provide immediate utility contributing significantly to the overall value of the estate. For the R&D warehouse, potential transformation into an event center, a restaurant with dance hall, production/showroom, recreational space or dynamic learning facility fits well with the surrounding landscape!

You be the visionary! Combine or re-segment the land to achieve maximum utilization, circulation potential and development flexibility! With multiple points of public and private access, western portions of the property are well-positioned for large estate residential development while eastern portions lay out well for production or adaptive commercial reuse. Intuitively, the western ~23 acres borders the established Mill Ridge subdivision, reinforcing its viability for residential expansion while the eastern warehouse and land components present a myriad of opportunity.

Just minutes from the Asheville Regional Airport, blocks from the new Publix shopping center, and ¼ mile from Mills River retail and employment centers, this truly one-of-a-kind estate offers a rare blend of scale, flexibility, and location! Whether you choose to utilize, expand, or reimagine this property, have confidence knowing a property of this caliber is rarely offered!
