Originally built in the 1970s over the creek on the site of an old bridge, this cottage offers a truly one-of-a-kind mountain setting. Surrounded by the sounds of flowing water and natural beauty, the property offers a peaceful retreat with incredible potential. A new metal roof was installed in November 2025; however, Hurricane Helene caused significant damage to several structural beams, insulation, and the underside of the home. The property has a septic system in place, though a well will need to be installed. The home requires substantial repairs and is being sold as-is. A structural engineer is recommended to determine whether the existing structure can be repaired or rebuilt. Ideal for buyers with vision and creativity, this property offers the opportunity to restore the current retreat or explore the possibility of building a new mountain getaway, modular, manufactured, or tiny home elsewhere on the property (buyer to verify). Tucked away in the peaceful Kyles Creek area of Terry's Gap, this property feels worlds away while remaining conveniently located between Asheville and Hendersonville. Near the Eastern Continental Divide, the area offers easy access to local restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, public parks, antique stores, art galleries, and more. Less than 20 minutes to Asheville Regional Airport. Discover the beauty and potential of Western North Carolina.
