In the midst of beautiful Brasstown, rolling hills part to reveal a 70 private acre estate, seamlessly blending Tuscan elegance with the beauty of NC's countryside. The villa is a sight to behold, with an imported Italian clay roof & stone construction creating an authentic Mediterranean ambiance. With 1 open room/kitchenette & 1 full bath, you'll be immediately captivated by the reclaimed imported French hardwood floors, French light fixtures, cathedral ceilings with hand hewn timbers, & a 2 story stone fireplace. The pasture & mountain views can be enjoyed from the ground level portico or the second story balcony. A short stroll from the villa brings you to a magnificent stone barn that's as functional as it is beautiful. The barn's main level is an equestrian's dream, featuring three stalls; water piped to each, a wash bay, & an air conditioned tack room. There's also a convenient half bathroom & 2 laundry closets, making it easy to keep up with the demands of farm life. The upper level of the stone barn is an apartment that could serve as a residence, guest or caretaker's quarters, or charming vacation rental. With its own open floor plan, a full bathroom boasting a walk-in shower with Italian ceramic floors, this space offers comfort and privacy. The bedroom in this apartment is a special treat, featuring 2 private balconies overlooking the vistas. Modern conveniences haven't been overlooked, with a tankless water heater, high speed internet, and speaker systems installed in both the villa and the stone barn. A 2nd barn with glass garage door is perfect for a workshop & horses or cattle, while the gentle terrain affords you with countless options for gardens, vineyards, & pastures. The estate feels tucked away from the world, however, the multiple gated entrances ensure you are 15 mins to the Folk School, as well as multiple towns, lakes, & golf courses, & making it desirable as an event venue or for development potential, or you can keep it all to yourself!
