Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 1.67-acre waterfront parcel includes 400 feet of frontage along the Tuckaseegee River, a two-bedroom, two-bath cabin, and a covered porch with a hot tub. The property also includes a park model rental currently operated on a short-term basis. Ductless heating and cooling are in place, with RV parking available.

Located on North River Road (NCSR 1359), the property sits just off US 23/441 near Dillsboro and Sylva, with access to US 74, the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway. Water and sewer service are available through the Tuckaseegee Water and Sewer system, with four taps already installed. The parcel has no zoning and includes both level upland and terraced riverfront areas; the terraced section is within the flood plain, while most of the property is outside it.

The combination of river frontage, road access, existing improvements, utility infrastructure, and flexible land-use status supports consideration of residential, hospitality, or commercial concepts, including a lodge, restaurant, brewery, short-term rental operation, or private estate.
