About 344 & 348 Tumbling Brook Drive
4,000+ FT ELEVATION | 11+ ACRES HISTORIC FARM | UNRESTRICTED VERSATILITY Rare opportunity to own a majestic 11+ acres mountain estate nestled in the heart of the High Country. Ideally situated just outside the Banner Elk city limits, this historic farm offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience—located just moments before the ascent up Beech Mountain Parkway. At an elevation of 4,000+ feet, the property features sweeping panoramic views of Grandfather, Sugar, and Beech Mountains. This sanctuary boasts a picturesque creek, cascading waterfalls, and a mix of lush, wooded trails and rolling cleared pastures. The estate includes two residences: a charming 3BR/1.5BA main house with a cozy propane fireplace and whole-house generator, plus a separate 2BR/1BA guest house—great for a family compound or immediate short-term rental income. Functional outbuildings include a classic barn, tool shed, granary/shop, cellar, and two carports. With multiple high-elevation building sites and no city-limit restrictions, this is a "blank canvas" for a legacy retreat or premier investment. Experience mountain living at its finest, with world-class skiing, golf, and trout fishing right at your doorstep.
