111 and 126 Visionview Way

Ever wanted to live within a nature preserve?
This rare 7.5-acre property, surrounded by protected forest and river access, redefines what premium location means. The kind of land typically passed down through generations or sold privately, it is now publicly available for the first time in over 50 years. Set within a 165-acre protected nature preserve, it sits on a south-facing ridge, 500 feet above the Broad River. A botanical wilderness of rhododendron, mountain laurel, and old-growth trees surrounds you, with trail access to over 3,700 feet of riverfront and end-of-drive privacy.
An eastern sunrise over mid-range mountains greets you each morning, while western ridgeline views provide the backdrop for sunset. Sit beneath the stars at night on your spacious deck in wondrous silence, far from city lights.
The main home is a 1,748-square-foot, two-story mountain retreat with 2 bedrooms, a bonus room, 2.5 bathrooms, and a three-car garage/workshop. Nearby, a separate 854-square-foot handcrafted round cordwood studio includes a full kitchen and modern bath—ideal for creative work, guests, or additional living space.
The listing also includes a partially cleared 1.3-acre parcel with a level potential build site, along with active septic and well permits. With no HOA and no architectural reviews, this unrestricted land offers complete freedom to bring your imagination to life.
Just 9 miles from Black Mountain and 20 miles from Asheville, you’re close to James Beard–nominated restaurants, daily farmers markets, live music, and a thriving Arts & Crafts scene—all while living in peaceful seclusion, surrounded by untouched forest and far from urban sprawl.
This property supports a wide range of lifestyles—whether you’re seeking a primary home, retreat, artist workshop or forest sanctuary—with a rare combination of location, privacy, and complete freedom.
