Property details

About 6553 N Norton Rd

First time on the market! Extremely rare opportunity to purchase your own 50+/- acre mountain overlooking Lake Glenville and the mountains beyond! No restrictions or HOA. With three existing homes, and multiple additional home sites, this property would be ideal for a variety of purposes, including a private estate, family compound, or future subdivision. The property offers unrivaled 360-degree mountain, lake, and rock face views. The main home, originally constructed in the early 1930's, has been beautifully expanded and remodeled over the years. It now offers two separate living areas, a fully appointed kitchen, a large bedroom, office space/bonus room, full bath, and a cozy covered porch with wood burning fireplace overlooking Lake Glenville. There are also two additional guest homes on the property. The first was completely remodeled in 2018 and offers a gorgeous open floor plan with living room, kitchen, one-bedroom, full bath, laundry room, and a private screened porch. The second guest home offers a living room, kitchen, two additional bedrooms, one full bath, and an attached two-car garage. The property also features an oversized storage workshop for all of your hobbies or equipment as well as a custom mountaintop pavilion with 360-degree views that you have to see to believe! In addition, a completely level homesite that offers long-range panoramic mountain/lake views has already been cleared and is ready for your dream home. You'll also find hiking/UTV trails that meander throughout, multiple cleared areas (perfect for landing your own helicopter!), a large garden, small spring-fed pond, and meticulous landscaping including thousands of individually planted Rhododendrons that bloom each year! Located less than 8.5 miles from the Cashiers Crossroads.
