2965 TATE CITY RD
This is an unparalleled, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own the first private property at the headwaters of the Tallulah River, nestled against the Southern Nantahala Wilderness at 2800 feet elevation. While the property parcel itself is less than an acre, it boasts rare ownership of **both sides of the Tallulah River** and shares a common boundary with the Southern Nantahala Wilderness, providing an absolute sanctuary of unparalleled privacy, seclusion, and raw nature. Enjoy end-of-road privacy bordering the wilderness area and pristine, direct TROUT stream frontage. For buyers seeking a larger footprint, the owner also has additional adjacent land with existing structures that can be purchased in tandem with this property to create an ultimate mountain compound. The main residence is a completely rebuilt, circa 1940s cabin (approx. 1,500 sq ft, 2BD/2BTH) transformed into an Appalachian-style jewel box, sitting literally only a few steps from the river's edge. US Forest Land and miles of hiking trails taking you to the Appalachian Trail. The home features breathtaking 200+ year-old, hand-hewn Eastern hemlock beams and custom heart pine cabinetry. Seller encourages offers.
