Property InformationDescription

Following Big Ridge Road , with beautiful views at every turn, you discover a lovingly restored 1870 farmhouse set at an elevation of 4300 feet, surrounded by open fields, a canopy of native forests, offering privacy and the serenity of these mountains. Misty Ridge is a charming and inviting part of Glenville and Cashiers history. Her foundation dates back to 1855, where a 2 story log home once stood. After a fire, the current farmhouse was rebuilt on that home's footprint. Built in 1870 by the Wilsons, one of the area's founding families, this home is said to be the first in Jackson county constructed of on site milled lumber. The current owners purchased Misty Ridge in 1999, and have preserved this historical home in great detail.Downstairs, you will find a beautifully updated kitchen with a gas range, dining area, spacious living room with a gas log fireplace, plus a small guest room, or office, a large bathroom, and laundry room. Upstairs, three more spacious bedrooms, a cozy sitting area, and 2nd bathroom await. Updated and tastefully decorated throughout, original farmhouse charm shines through in the 150 year old heart pine flooring, original beadboard walls and ceilings, and solid oak doors. One and 1/2 beautifully landscaped acres, a detached garage, multiple storage options, and even a chicken coop add to a tranquil country lifestyle. A rustic bridge leads to a spring that provides pristine mountain water to the home. At this high elevation, you'll love cool and rejuvenating summers. Open the windows, and the fresh mountain breezes are yours.Sit for a spell in your rocking chair on the porch, and gaze at the peaceful pond opposite the property. A two story bunkhouse with living area, bathroom, and large upstairs bunk room with a kitchen nook provide additional room for family members or guest quarters
