ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

New Construction: 12-Unit New Construction Development in Downtown Old Fort, NC 73 W Mitchell Street offers an opportunity for investors or home buyers looking for housing that allows you to walk to all that Downtown Old Fort has to offer. This fully permitted, under-construction property comprises 12 individually designed units, each featuring a walk-in shower, stackable washer and dryer, full kitchen, private single bedroom, and personal deck, with dedicated front door parking. Old Fort is in the midst of a deliberate, well-funded transformation. The G5 Trail Collective, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, is expanding the surrounding trail network toward a planned 42 miles, building on the momentum of Kitsuma, Catawba Falls, and the Gateway Trail System, and drawing hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians from across the region. That momentum shows up most clearly in Old Fort's dining and gathering spots, which have become a draw in their own right. Hillman Beer's downtown taproom offers creekside seating and a full food menu alongside its brews, while Foothills Watershed pairs house-brewed beer with a barbecue menu sourced from Foothills Butcher Shop across its 117-acre riverside bike park and recreation grounds. Whaley Farm Brewery brings European-style lagers and Appalachian-inspired ales just across the stream, and Euda Wine rounds out the beverage scene for visitors who prefer wine to beer. On the food and coffee side, Seeker Coffee has built a loyal following for its locally roasted drinks, Gogo's Cinnamon Rolls draws a steady stream of visitors downtown for its baked goods. Modern Alchemist, born from a passion for mixology and experimentation, blends tradition and boundary-pushing creativity from its on-site distillery and food offerings in an amazing space. Other local favorites include, The Davis Country Store & Cafe, Black Beary's Cafe, and 27 Main. For investors, the property's design offers meaningful flexibility. The unit configuration works equally well as short-term rentals for the rising tide of outdoor recreation visitors, or as long-term workforce housing to meet a documented local need as new businesses and residents continue arriving. With construction still underway, buyers have the added advantage of stepping in before completion, with the opportunity to influence remaining finish and design decisions. Positioned just 25 miles east of Asheville, Old Fort offers access to the same regional demand drivers at a fraction of the cost of entry, making 73 W Mitchell Street a compelling opportunity to capture ground-floor value in a market with clear, sustained momentum.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Developers, investors and mountain lovers, this is a property worth exploring. You've just found an unrestricted 18.99 acre mountain estate that has the potential to either be Old Fort's next great neighborhood, a very successful short term rental or a multi-generational legacy estate surrounded by nature. Located just 9 minutes from the breweries, shops, and the outdoor lifestyle that has Old Fort making headlines, this prime mountain property offers an extraordinary opportunity. Let's start with the development and subdivision potential. With over 1,000 feet of very buildable ridge line with no restrictions, the acreage is uniquely positioned for a multitude of homesites several of which could sit atop the ridge with potential views of Hickorynut Mountain. If you're not familiar, Hickorynut Mountain is a 12,000 acre piece of land that is currently in a private conservancy and is slated to be transferred to the state with two thirds of it to be made into a state park (read: indefinite pristine views.) As a developer, your costs will be reduced because a road to the ridge is already partially roughed-in while another road that runs the ridge's entire length is fully roughed-in. Whether you fancy a select number of larger homes or a neighborhood of tiny homes or something in between, your vision can become reality here. If you're thinking about short term rental potential you're in luck as this home bridges traditional log construction with contemporary refinement. Tucked away for total privacy at the end of a paved drive, it boasts many features desired by renters including over 800 square feet of deck space, vaulted ceilings with a soapstone wood burning stove and a floor to ceiling stone chimney, a 1 Gbps symmetrical fiber line and an office for remote work, plenty of nature and hiking trails in addition to great proximity to Old Fort, Asheville and Lake James. The custom-built nearly 2400 square foot log home also has massive windows that drench the space with natural light. Fine hickory flooring and cultured marble counter tops run throughout while 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths highlighted by a primary suite with a dedicated soaking tub will have everyone relaxing. The massive 990 square foot two car garage includes a dedicated workspace for outdoor gear and projects. Thoughtfully engineered, the stone chimney in the main floor extends directly down to this lower level providing the built-in infrastructure to easily add a second stove for a heated, year-round workshop. It's all about lifestyle here and outdoor living is central to the property's design. We recommend exploring the land during your showing to fully understand its uniqueness, potential and beauty. Whether it's enjoying quiet mornings enveloped by the lush privacy of your own forest, adding this property to your portfolio of short term rentals, or executing your vision for a multi-homesite development project, this property represents a rare and versatile acquisition in the Blue Ridge foothills that is unmatched.
