Should you need banking, shipping or big-box stores during your stay, you'll enjoy the convenience of them in town. The 1 acre property has 2 active rushing creeks running through it and is surrounded on 2 sides by US Forest Service land, so there's privacy and lots to explore. The house is approximately 5 miles from the start of scenic Wayah Road in the town of Franklin. For hiking and waterfall enthusiasts, there's water directly on the property to enjoy looking at or going in. There's also a hiking trail across the street that you can walk to. There's another hike with waterfalls a few miles down the road that you can drive to. There are literally dozens of hiking options all around Franklin and Western NC for all levels. For running and walking enthusiasts, the trail across the street has a great dirt path that goes for many miles with inclines and declines. In addition to that, the forest is yours to explore.
