Rare opportunity to own a slice of heaven along scenic Broad River in Black Mountain for just $175k! Perfect for a full-time residence, mountain retreat, short-term/long-term rental investment property, or to build something new.

This 1.4-acre riverfront property includes a charming one bedroom, 312 sqft park model tiny home with 200 ft of river frontage, garden beds and established landscaping (herbs/ornamentals), fruit trees (pear, peach, plum, elderberry, blueberries) and peaceful mountain view. The land comes equipped with a 2-bedroom septic, underground power/high-speed fiber-optics, and a private well. Buyers may explore options with Buncombe County to build something new or add onto the existing structure. Home sits above 500-year flood line and includes a screened porch, cork/wood floors, and a metal roof (2019). No HOA, no restrictions. As-is, seller will make no repairs.

While Hurricane Helene disturbed the land and aesthetic skirting under the home, the structure appears to have remained secure with no flooding inside. Active carpenter bees and there are a couple of rotten/soft siding boards on the bedroom side of the home that need further inspection/repair and the hand rail on the side porch needs replacing. The well water has not been tested post-Helene. A new power meter base was installed to code and the well pump is operational.

Local Drive Times: (assuming normal road conditions)
- Chimney Rock - 10 minutes
- Lake Lure Ingles - 20 minutes
- Fairview - 20 minutes
- Old Fort - 20 minutes
- Black Mountain - 25 minutes
- East Asheville - 35 minutes

Contact me for two conventional lending options or to schedule a showing. This is a wonderful place to create a peaceful homestead in the mountains or an affordable investment opportunity.

As a North Carolina Realtor who cares deeply about housing affordability, I’m urging Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey to reject the proposed 68.3% average increase in dwelling insurance rates.

This kind of drastic jump would hit renters, landlords, and property owners across the state — and it would only make our affordability challenges even worse.

Dwelling policies cover non-owner-occupied homes up to four units, including rentals and investment properties. Even if this doesn’t affect your own home directly, rising insurance costs ultimately impact everyone by driving up rents and housing prices. North Carolina families are already feeling the strain, and this proposal would push housing even further out of reach.

Commissioner Causey has stated clearly on his campaign website:

“It’s my constitutional duty to stand up to the insurance industry and hold them accountable and to champion transparency to protect our consumers. That’s why I have rejected every single rate hike proposed for your homeowner’s insurance – forcing the insurance companies to negotiate and provide the lowest and best rates possible for North Carolina homeowners.”
– Mike Causey (https://mikecauseync.com/)

I hope he stands by this commitment now.

We need solutions that support our communities — not policies that make it harder for people to live and thrive here.

If you’d like to share your own concerns, you can email Commissioner Mike Causey at [email protected]

Take action by Wednesday, November 19th, for your comments to be considered. Thank you!

For those experiencing homelessness, finding a safe place to sleep can be the biggest challenge of the day. Emergency shelters offer more than just a bed; they offer immediate safety, relief from the elements, and access to food.

Swannanoa Valley Christian Ministry is having their Walk For Your Neighbor fundraiser event on October 26th from 2-5pm in Swannanoa. Come out and support our neighbors!

After being cancelled last year due to Helene, our annual fundraiser Walk For Your Neighbor is BACK! Please join us on Sunday, October 26 at First Baptist Church of ***Swannanoa*** for a walk and block party! We’re still sorting out a few details, but there will be music, as well as food and drink! The walk will start at 2pm, with the block party continuing until 5pm. To add to the excitement, this day will also coincide with the 1-year anniversary of our NeighborCare Clinic!

To register for Walk for Your Neighbor, just scan the QR code on this flyer, or follow the link below. Registration is by donation only, but we are encouraging a $20 minimum donation for those who are able. You can also ask family and friends to sponsor your walk using the donation link you receive when you register. To be cost and environmentally conscious, we will be using last year's t-shirts.

Our valley is still recovering and needs remain high. The more we raise through this walk, the more we can tangibly share the love of Christ with neighbors in need through food, clothing, baby supplies, healthcare, home repairs, and so much more! We hope you’ll give generously, lace up those sneakers, and come walk with us! 👟

Congratulations to both of my sellers for getting under contract this week! 🎉🎉

Accepting backup offers on both properties. You can secure your place and be next in line if the current buyer terminates their contract for any reason. This would ensure that the property does not go back to being publicly marketed if the first contract were to fall through.
