North Carolina Mountain Vineyard & Estate

Overview

This unique and spectacular 50 +/- acre property offers an unusual opportunity to acquire an established riverfront hospitality destination in the North Carolina Blue Ridge Foothills. Breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and river create an idyllic setting for both relaxation and enterprise, while a fully developed agritourism operation — complete with restaurant, event venues, vacation rentals, RV sites, and a vineyard producing award-winning wines — is already in place and generating income. Approximately 20 to 30 acres remain suitable for phased residential or vacation-rental development, offering a compelling blend of immediate cash flow and long-term upside.

The property is available with or without the existing private estate luxury residence:

Offering Asking Price Options

• Resort, vineyard & development land (without Luxury Residence) $3,200,000* 
  
• Resort, vineyard & development land (with Luxury Residence)     $4,200,000* 

*Both prices are exclusive of wine inventory.

Main Residence (Optional Inclusion)

The estate’s spacious custom-built home showcases a contemporary open-concept layout, thoughtfully designed to blend comfort and elegance and providing ample room for family and guests. Multiple outdoor decks, including a plunge pool area, allow for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Mature landscaping surrounds the residence, highlighted by vegetable and flower gardens that add color and freshness. Ample garage space and a detached utility barn ensure practical storage and utility needs are well accommodated. The residence serves equally well as a welcoming owner’s retreat or as a premium hospitality asset.

Vineyard & Agricultural Assets

An established vineyard produces award-winning wines, reflecting the property’s dedication to quality. Additional agricultural features include a truffle orchard and well-maintained gardens, further diversifying the operation’s offerings. The grounds are enhanced by picturesque ponds and an aesthetically pleasing entrance, welcoming all who arrive.

Hospitality & Event Facilities

The property is equipped with versatile hospitality spaces, including a tasting room and restaurant featuring a commercial kitchen. Multiple dining options are available, such as an outdoor pub garden and a scenic covered porch, catering to various preferences. Dedicated event spaces — with a particular focus on weddings — include a stage and customizable enclosure to suit any occasion. A clubhouse with a cozy fireplace offers a comfortable environment for gatherings.

Guest Accommodations

Guests are welcomed with multiple rental units, including apartments and cabins suitable for vacation rentals or extended stays. Communal spa facilities, featuring a relaxing hot tub, provide additional amenities for visitors.

Please Note:  The largest of the current lodging units was built and used as the owners’ residence for many years and could easily be utilized once again as the owners’ residence if the contemplated purchase option does not include the current Main Residence described above.

Recreational Amenities

A full-service RV park with modern utilities and guest sites is particularly appealing to wine enthusiasts. Private river access is ideal for fishing and recreational activities, while dedicated outdoor spaces accommodate gardens, a shooting range, and a golf range area.

Development Potential

Approximately 20 to 30 acres of the property are suitable for phased residential or vacation-rental development, allowing a buyer to expand revenue in measured stages while the existing resort operation continues uninterrupted. There is also potential for expansion or development of additional structures within the current hospitality footprint.

Unique Attributes

Historic features, including a cabin and old mill ruins, add distinctive character and storytelling appeal to the property. Together with its riverfront setting and established brand presence, these elements represent a versatile investment opportunity spanning boutique winery operations, hospitality services, and residential development.

Ideal Uses

This property is perfectly suited for a boutique winery, private retreat, agritourism-focused investment, or phased residential development. Its picturesque riverfront and mountain setting makes it an excellent choice for wedding events, corporate retreats, and family gatherings.
