Wow - with nearly 240 feet of creek front, this lot is a perfect spot for a Smoky Mountain getaway! Close enough to town, freeways, and a myriad of activities to be convenient, but far enough from the bustle to feel remote. Less than 1 mile into town, and less than 2 miles to the Deep Creek Trailhead in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. On the way to the trailhead, you'll pass campgrounds, tube rental joints, and a few snack bars. Walking distance to the Rec Park. Downtown Bryson City offers all the necessities, plus delightful eateries, shopping, the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad and museum, and the Tuckasegee River (fishing, rafting, kayaking, etc.). Asheville, NC is 66 miles east, and the freeway is 2.2 miles away. The lot itself is prime for a creekside dwelling. It currently has an oversized shed (36' wide x 19' deep, 684 sqft), which could be removed to make way for a house or used to store building materials during construction. There is electricity to the shed, and one outlet in the east section (additional lighting/outlets could be easily added). Other features of the lot include a graded driveway from the road down to the main level of the property, an incline from that level down to the creek front (previously a cleared path with steps), a retaining wall separating the main level from a fairly level bit of ground near the creek for a deck or patio, a septic field permitted for a 2 bedroom dwelling, a well, and a noteworthy mountain view to the south. A truly unique opportunity! This lot offers private access to magical Deep Creek with no public road running through it, and is ready for a tranquil creekside cottage. Imagine home with mountain vistas AND the gurgle of the creek for a backdrop. Minutes to adventure in the National Park, to Nantahala Gorge or to coffee downtown across from the train. This is the one. Buyer to verify any county building/utility restrictions. The bees are - for the time being - our welcomed guests, and are busy enriching the environment.
