Property description

Welcome to a truly unique equestrian estate, nestled on 32.7 acres of partially wooded and cleared land in the lush North Carolina countryside. While offering complete privacy, this property is conveniently located within easy reach of Charlotte, Asheville, and Greenville/Spartanburg, giving you the best of serene rural living with modern accessibility.

As you travel down the picturesque 1/4-mile driveway, past a serene stocked swim pond, you’ll feel as if you’ve entered a private retreat. This remarkable property combines luxury, functionality, and endless potential.

The centerpiece of this estate is a 67’ x 148’ lighted, covered arena—perfect for all-weather training. The equestrian facilities include a versatile barn with five oversized 12x24 stalls (featuring automatic waterers and upgraded safety fans) and two additional 12x12 stalls, which can easily convert into a 12-stall barn. The barn is thoughtfully designed with a tack room, a wash rack with hot and cold water, stall monitoring cameras, covered bays for hay and equipment, and a full bathroom with a shower and washer/dryer hookups. The office and lobby are equipped with additional monitoring cameras, and an automatic Pyrethrin system ensures comfort for your horses year-round. A full 50-amp RV hookup with septic at the arena adds convenience for guests or live-in trainers.

The estate also caters to sustainable living with a brand-new 12x24 greenhouse outfitted with electric, water, and custom beeswax window openers that adjust to the temperature. Raised garden beds, fruit trees, and winding trails—spanning about two miles—enhance the property’s charm. You can enjoy peaceful walks or rides along West Brushy Creek and the spring-fed creek.

Equestrian amenities extend to two fenced paddocks, a sun pen, multiple large pastures, and ample parking for horse trailers—making this property an ideal venue for events, boarding, or training. There’s even a separate equipment barn featuring an oversized 12x24 chicken coop for those with a passion for homesteading.

Wildlife enthusiasts will love the vibrant ecosystem on the property. From a softshell turtle in the swim pond to frequent sightings of deer, wild turkeys, great blue herons, kingfishers, and rare whippoorwills, nature truly thrives here. Eastern bluebirds, barred owls, pileated woodpeckers, and countless fireflies complete the enchanting atmosphere.

The upgraded 2,251 sq. ft. Cape Cod-style farmhouse provides the perfect complement to the estate’s outdoor amenities. With a wrap-around porch, a newly expanded deck, and an upgraded gas fireplace, the home is both cozy and functional. Additional features include an on-demand water heater and a brand-new security camera system.

Located just 30 minutes from the Tryon International Equestrian Center, 20 minutes from Shelby or Forest City, and 10 minutes from the nearest grocery store, this estate offers an ideal balance of seclusion and convenience. Nearby farm stores and the beloved Guernsey Girl dairy farm add to the property’s charm.

Currently operating as a private horse farm, this estate is ready to transform into a premier equestrian facility, a private retreat, or a thriving farmstead. The possibilities are endless.

**Owners will need to occupy the property until 03/31/25. Additional renovations are in progress, and the price will increase accordingly.**
