About 380 Ledford Dr

Breathtaking Mountain Top Estate with spectacular long-range views in nearly every direction with an updated, move-in ready home. Perfect for peaceful, yet convenient living, outdoor adventures, animals, and even homesteading. This versatile property boasts open fields, secluded woods, scenic ATV roads and hiking and biking trails. It even has several clear buildable lots with incredible views that could be developed without impacting on the beauty and serenity of the surrounding property. The property lends itself to a family compound, or potentially a much larger vision, with room for more than 20 units. Currently the property consists of two homes as you enter the property, a circa 1940s cottage and at the summit, a custom brick Ranch house that has been completely updated with all the modern conveniences. Behind the main home is an elevated plateau that would be ideal for large estate homes or a cluster of smaller homes that would take advantage of the exceptional views. Wide trails with beautiful treelined canopies meander around the acreage to allow for private exploration or ATV adventures. On the lower portion of the property there are several acres of pastureland well suited for horses or other animals. What makes this property especially desirable is its location and ease of accessibility. Located only one mile off Highway 441 and just minutes from the main gateway to the Smoky Mountains and the quaint towns of Franklin, Highlands and Clayton. It’s an easy two-hour, four-lane drive to Atlanta, and only one hour from Asheville. Call today for a private showing
