Welcome to your private mountain oasis—where forest bathing, flowing water, and total tranquility await. Nestled on 13+ acres of pristine woodland with a natural sliding rock and bold creek, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a deep connection to nature. Hike your own trails, wade in the stream, and marvel at the synchronous fireflies that light up the forest at night. The 3BR/2BA main home blends rustic charm and comfort with a spacious great room, cozy den, two wood-burning fireplaces, a woodstove, and a tucked-away speakeasy for relaxing or entertaining. A detached garage features a 1BR/1BA apartment (482 sq ft)—ideal for guests, rental income, or multigenerational living. Every corner of this property invites stillness, presence, and peace. Whether you're unwinding by the fire or meditating by the creek, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into another world—yet you’re less than 15 minutes to both downtown Waynesville and Sylva.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
