About This Property

Finally, an affordable horse farm conveniently located only 11 minutes from Tryon International Equestrian Center. Set on 6.25 acres of usable, level land with fenced pasture, 2 stall barn w/tack/feed room, run-in shelter area, and a round pen with sand/stone dust footing. The 2,202 sq ft house offers plenty of space with a massive family room featuring a vaulted ceiling and beams, built-in bookcases and wood burning fireplace. The large living room with gas fireplace opens onto the kitchen which has its own dining area in addition to the separate dining room which the current owner used as an office. 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. New roof in 2022. Beautiful hardwood floors that were recently refinished plus new flooring in the family room, dining room and one bathroom. Interior painted in 2022; new water heater 2022. The barn was added to the property just prior to the seller's purchase in 2022. Seller had a large overhang shelter/run-in area constructed on the front of the barn, and installed water, electric and bluestone mix footing. Part of the shelter could easily be converted to a 3rd stall. Stalls are matted. The round pen was professionally graded. Large, recently stained deck on the back of the house is a great place to enjoy the view of your horses. The unfinished basement with interior and exterior entrances offers an additional 1,445 sq feet of space. This property gives you the best of both worlds - expansive, unrestricted land yet you are only minutes away from shopping/dining in Forest City with the convenience of Tractor Supply, Lowe's, Walmart and more. Quick ride to Highway 74 if you're heading to Charlotte or Asheville.
