Beautiful south facing, open use, 7 acre property for sale in Marshall, NC. Unlimited water, amazing views. Build a house or create a farm community.
A Rare Opportunity: Own a South-Facing Mountain in Marshall, NC – 7 Unrestricted Acres with Endless Potential and an ancient high output spring.
Nestled in the heart of Western North Carolina, this exceptional 7-acre property offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own your very own mountain — from the base all the way to the breathtaking ridgeline at the top. With close to 360-degree panoramic views of untouched forests and rolling Blue Ridge Mountains, this land is more than just property — it's a private slice of Appalachian paradise.
Located in Marshall, NC, but actually closer to the town center of Mars Hill, you're just 35 minutes north of vibrant Asheville and only minutes from I-26 (Exit 11) — close enough for convenience, yet far enough that you won’t hear a sound from the highway.
This south-facing mountain — a rare and sought-after feature — offers sun-drenched slopes, ideal for solar power and sustainable living. The lower portions of the property are gently sloped with several flat, buildable areas, perfect for constructing your dream home, establishing a private estate, or installing a full septic system. Whether you’re looking to build a single residence with world-class views, or envisioning a multi-home subdivision or mountain retreat, this unrestricted, open-use land gives you the freedom to bring your vision to life.
But that’s just the beginning.
This land is rich with natural resources, including:
A massive-output natural spring fed by an underground aquifer, already connected to two 400-gallon cisterns — a major asset for off-grid living, agriculture, or even starting your own bottled water company.
Abundant timber, boulder fields, and medicinal herbs — ripe for sustainable harvesting or a nature-based business.
A resident bald eagle and thriving wildlife, making it a haven for hunting, bird watching, camping, or eco-tourism. A creek runing along Dan Branch Rd.
Two small rustic cabins are already in place, perfect as hunting lodges, base camps, or starting points for development.
A significant amount of clearing has been done in key areas this year, so some of the older photos will be replaced as the property is becoming much more tidy and organized. Especially the lower parts which hold interest for further development. and parking. There are many other areas on the property including up mountain where a house or structures could be built.
Please text John to schedule a viewing. We will plan to accept the best offer we have by mid summer and hope to close by August at the latest. We are evaluating all cash offers and can offer owner financing with a significant down payment.
