Perched high above downtown Tryon, Fox Cottage feels like a breath of fresh mountain air. Built in 1905 and thoughtfully updated, this Craftsman bungalow blends original pine floors and sunlit, forest-framing windows with modern comforts. Enjoy morning coffee or a sunset glass of wine on any of three shaded porches—or escape to “The Bird’s Nest” off the primary suite and sink into your favorite novel. The lower-level flex room, with its own porch and luxury-vinyl plank floors, is perfect as a studio, guest retreat or writer’s nook. Riders will love being minutes from the Tryon International Equestrian Center, FENCE and countless Landrum/Tryon riding trails. Rodgers Park, downtown galleries and cafés are walking-distance away, with both Landrum and Hendersonville within easy reach. Whether as a full-time home, weekend sanctuary or creative hideaway, Fox Cottage is a rare foothills gem—ready for its next chapter.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
