Presenting an exceptional 63-acre commercial development opportunity in the heart of Mills River, North Carolina. One of Western North Carolina’s fastest-growing and most strategically positioned commercial and industrial markets. Located at 32 School House Road, this expansive tract offers a unique combination of scale, zoning versatility, access to public utilities, and proximity to major regional transportation assets. Zoned MR-NC (Neighborhood Commercial), the property supports a wide array of commercial, service-oriented, and mixed-use development possibilities, with the potential for rezoning or conditional approvals for larger commercial or industrial concepts. This flexibility makes the site highly attractive for investors, developers, and end-users seeking a significant presence in a market experiencing sustained industrial and commercial demand. A key feature that sets this property apart is the availability of public water and sewer located adjacent to the tract—a rarity in Mills River, where many large parcels lack utility access. The presence of municipal utilities greatly enhances the development potential and substantially reduces upfront infrastructure costs. The land itself is primarily flat and usable, offering broad, functional acreage suitable for commercial campuses, retail and service centers, flex-industrial development, warehousing, light manufacturing, logistics, research facilities, or mixed-use clusters, subject to Town of Mills River requirements and approvals. The site’s layout and topography provide numerous options for phased development, subdivision, or a single large-scale commercial project. Mills River has emerged as a powerhouse for industrial and commercial activity due to its central location between Asheville, Hendersonville, and Brevard, as well as its immediate proximity to Interstate 26, U.S. 280, and the Asheville Regional Airport. National and international companies—including Sierra Nevada Brewing, Amazon, FedEx, Pepsi, GF Linamar, and others have invested heavily in this corridor, drawn by excellent transportation access, a stable workforce, logistics advantages, and a pro-business regulatory environment. Industrial and commercial land absorption in Mills River has outpaced supply for years, creating strong long-term value and making large contiguous tracts with utility access increasingly scarce. An old 1850’s colonial home remains on the property; however, it is considered to have no contributory value and is not expected to affect redevelopment plans. The highest and best use of the site lies overwhelmingly in its commercial and industrial potential. With its combination of location, visibility, access, utilities, and sheer acreage, this property represents one of the most compelling development opportunities currently available in Western North Carolina. Whether your vision is a corporate campus, industrial park, commercial center, or an investment hold for future appreciation, 32 School House Road delivers the fundamentals that developers and end-users seek—location strength, infrastructure, zoning flexibility, and market momentum. This is a rare chance to control a legacy-sized tract in a thriving commercial hub poised for continued long-term growth.

Beyond the main living spaces, the home reveals another unexpected luxury: a dedicated workshop that is truly a dream for anyone who loves to create. Whether imagined as a craftsman's studio, an artist's retreat, or simply a place for projects and passions to take shape, it is a rare and remarkable feature, complete with its own single-car garage. The main level also offers an oversized two-car garage, while abundant storage throughout provides ample room for mountain gear, outdoor equipment, collections, and everything that comes with living well in the mountains.

This is a home made for a life well lived. For weekends that become traditions, holidays that bring everyone together, projects that become passions, and the kind of moments that become part of your family's story. A truly special place to call home.

Thoughtfully curated to frame the ever-changing beauty of the mountains from nearly every major room, this residence pairs mountain modern architectural beauty with refined livability on an exceptional scale. A soaring two-story vaulted great room sets the tone, anchored by walnut hardwood floors, a striking spiral crystal chandelier, and walls of glass that open to more than 2,000 square feet of outdoor living and entertaining space across two levels. Covered and open-air gathering areas, multiple lounge settings, fireplaces, and an outdoor kitchen create a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. The chef’s kitchen is both sophisticated and inviting, appointed with Viking professional appliances, an impressive marble prep island, copper-accented marble breakfast bar, farmhouse sink, prep sink with reverse osmosis filtration, and a walk-in pantry. The formal dining room offers an elegant setting for entertaining, while the private primary suite is a true retreat with its own wing, fireside sitting area, bespoke dressing room, and spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, expansive shower, dual vanities, and a picture window framing the mountains like living art. The terrace level was designed for exceptional leisure and hospitality, offering a dramatic entertaining area with pool table, theater room, full bar, fitness room, and a hidden wine cellar reminiscent of a private Tuscan tasting room. Three en-suite guest suites open to the lower terrace, while a separate guest or staff suite above the garage provides added privacy and flexibility. Additional highlights include a private elevator, Lutron Caseta lighting system, Rinnai tank-less water heater, mudroom, spacious laundry room, and finished 3-car garage. Just minutes from South Asheville, this remarkable home also offers the opportunity to qualify for membership at The Cliffs, with access to golf, dining, wellness, and an exceptional collection of mountain and lake club amenities. The seller is providing a home warranty for the new home owner.

There are homes that simply provide a place to live, and then there are homes that become part of the way you remember your life. 17 Amherst Rd is the latter. Privately nestled on 1.5 beautifully landscaped acres along the 6th fairway of the historic Biltmore Forest Country Club, this extraordinary residence offers an uncommon combination of serenity, craftsmanship, gracious living, and natural beauty. Here, the landscape seems to become part of the architecture, with expansive golf-course views, mature gardens, peaceful water, and outdoor spaces that invite you to linger. Originally built in 1968 and thoughtfully expanded and remodeled by Griffin Architects, the 5,650-square-foot home possesses the soul of a classic residence while offering the ease and versatility of a home designed for contemporary life. Its exceptional Arts & Crafts character is expressed throughout in exquisite custom Cherry and Maple millwork. Inside, the experience begins with a gracious entry foyer and continues into light-filled living and dining rooms oriented toward the beauty beyond the windows. The chef’s kitchen, welcoming family room, and elegant wet bar create an effortless setting for everything from quiet mornings to lively evenings with friends. A generous study/den with a full bath provides a private retreat and additional flexibility. At the heart of the main level is a primary suite designed as a sanctuary. Golf-course views bring a sense of calm, while a private sitting and office area creates space to read, work, or retreat. Two walk-in closets provide generous storage, and the spa bath features a wet room, oversized shower, and soaking tub. Step onto the private golf-view porch and the pace of the day slows. A spiral staircase leads from the suite to the lower level, creating a distinctive connection between floors. The lower level offers a second spacious primary suite, two additional bedrooms, a gym or multipurpose room, and a landing sitting area. Abundant storage adds practical ease to accommodate everyday life and guests. Outside, flagstone terraces unfold naturally, creating inviting spaces for dining, entertaining, and enjoying the changing seasons. A fire pit provides a gathering place beneath the trees. Nearby, a tranquil pond and cascading waterfall add the gentle sound of moving water. Mature plantings provide privacy and permanence. Three level green terraces create versatile spaces for bocce ball, croquet, or informal gatherings. Landscape lighting brings the gardens to life after sunset. A graceful curved driveway winds through the landscape into this private forest enclave, complete with additional parking and a deep two-car garage. What distinguishes 17 Amherst Road cannot be captured entirely in numbers or amenities. It is the feeling of arriving home through a private landscape, the warmth of handcrafted wood beneath your hand, and the morning light across the living spaces. It is the view of the fairway beyond the garden, the sound of water moving through the pond, an evening around the fire, and a quiet moment on the porch as the day comes to an end. Set within historic Biltmore Forest and directly along the golf course, 17 Amherst Road is a rare expression of privacy, craftsmanship, and gracious living. It is a home with history that avoids feeling dated, thoughtfully designed for entertaining while remaining equally beautiful in its quiet moments. Surrounded by nature yet wonderfully connected to its neighborhood, it is a home meant to be lived in fully and remembered fondly for years to come.

Nearly 40 acres of rolling pastures are embraced by forested mountains. The property also features two barns, farm outbuildings, an extensive ATV trail network, a pond, and abundant wildlife. A Finnish-designed sauna built over an authentic springhouse features a cold plunge filled with spring water. Potential ridgeline homesites offer sweeping long-range views. The location is remarkably convenient, with Weaverville and big box shopping only minutes away. Access to the property is easy via state maintained, paved road frontage, and the private road into the property is also built to state standards, offering a useful head start for any development plans. With a long farming history, this exceptional landscape is suited for a legacy estate, residential development, retreat center, equestrian/livestock uses, conservation, subdivision, or any combination to achieve your vision.
