Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This waterfront land parcel offers level topography and substantial Tuckaseegee River frontage, including a cabin overlooking the river. The property includes 1.67 acres and 400 feet of frontage on the Tuckaseegee River. Riverfront areas are terraced down to the water and are included in the flood plain, while the great majority of the property is high enough that it is not in the flood plain.

The site is located in the Dillsboro area on North River Road (NCSR 1359) and just off US 23/441. While thousands of cars pass through the area daily at the Dillsboro intersection of 23/441 and US 74, the property is described as combining accessibility with privacy in a scenic river setting. Water and sewer service are provided by the Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer, with four (4) taps in place.

Current use includes a park model rental operating as a modified short term rental for periods of three months and longer. The owners also have a two bedroom, two bath cabin with a covered porch and hot tub overlooking the river.
