Description
Located in Cherokee County near Murphy, North Carolina, this unrestricted tract provides a balance of natural features, accessibility, and recreational opportunities. The property lies at the end of a paved road, creating a sense of privacy while maintaining convenience for access. With acreage on both sides of the road, the layout allows for a variety of uses, including potential for two or more building sites or a subdivision of the parcel.
This tract directly adjoins U.S. Forest Service land, creating a private setting while offering access to public acreage for hunting, hiking, and recreation. Hiwassee Lake lies just beyond the forest boundary, providing nearby opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and other water activities. As a reservoir formed by the Hiwassee Dam on the Hiwassee River in Cherokee County, NC, the lake is a valuable regional resource. A public boat ramp is located within 1.5 miles, allowing convenient access for boating.
The property also includes a forestry road that has been built along the edge of the parcel and extends for several hundred yards. Within the acreage, a potential building site offers expansive mountain views in a secluded setting. This site, combined with other possible build locations, supports a range of residential or recreational uses.
The land includes mature hardwoods and pine timber as well as a small creek that flows through the tract. These natural features add both ecological diversity and recreational value. A spring well is also located on the property. An old farmhouse remains on site but is considered to have no contributory value.
Services and amenities are available in the surrounding communities. The property is located approximately 15 minutes from Murphy, NC. Andrews, NC, is about 20 minutes away, Hayesville, NC, about 30 minutes, and Blairsville, GA, as well as Blue Ridge, GA, are each within about 40 minutes. These towns offer access to groceries, restaurants, healthcare, and additional services.
With its location, resources, and access to public land, this Cherokee County acreage is well-suited for a residential home, recreational retreat, or long-term investment holding.
