Tucked away in the heart of Mills River, this 109-acre mountain property offers both privacy and natural beauty—just 8 minutes from Ingles. Whether you're looking to build a private retreat, a family compound, or make a smart land investment in one of WNC’s most desirable areas. The land features a mix of old roadbeds and trails, open flat areas that could work well as pasture, a peaceful creek running through parts of the property, and plenty of mature hardwoods and wildlife. Several flat ridges and bluff-top spots make for incredible build sites, with long-range views stretching up to 40 miles. One of the top sites even has close to 360-degree views and about 2–3 acres of level ground. There's already a power pole on-site. AT&T internet is nearby, but Starlink could be a better option out here. You’ll need to install a well and septic system. Properties like this don’t come around often—especially in this area—it’s a rare opportunity to create something special.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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

Directions:Please call the listing agent. GPS address for the lot in the Homestead in Mills River: 1647 Mills River Way Horse Shoe, NC. Take Davey Branch Road off of Whitaker Lane.

Continue another 0.7 miles. You will come up to a house with a big green yard. Do not turn up toward the house, instead stay straight and go under the pines. I have a direction arrow at this spot. Park just past the small storage shed, which is directly below the dam on the lake. Park and walk about 475 feet and you will see a real estate sign. Take this path onto the property and follow the trails from there.
