Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This riverfront land parcel totals 1.67 acres and includes a cabin overlooking the Tuckaseegee River, which features 400 feet of frontage. The property is relatively flat and has river-facing areas that are terraced down to the water. Those terraced sections are included in the flood plain, while the great majority of the parcel is high enough not to be in the flood plain.

The parcel sits in the Dillsboro area on North River Road (NCSR 1359), just off US 23/441, with convenient access to the routes connecting the Atlanta area through Cherokee, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and Asheville. Water and sewer are served by the Tuckaseegee Water and Sewer, with four (4) taps in place. Cable is available, and the property includes ductless heating and ductless cooling. RV parking is also available.

Current use includes a park model rental operating as a modified short-term rental for stays of three months and longer. The owners’ two-bedroom, two-bath cabin overlooks the river and features a covered porch with a hot tub overlooking the river. The property adjoins Dillsboro and Sylva, and there is no zoning, allowing flexibility for residential, hospitality, or commercial uses.
