Description
This is a rare opportunity to own one of the last large tracts in the heart of Fairview. Spanning approximately 91 acres, this remarkable property offers an unmatched combination of location, history, natural beauty, and development potential. Conveniently located just 10 miles from Asheville and 12 miles from Lake Lure, it provides the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. Steeped in history, the land has remained in the same family since the mid-1800s. It was once home to the historic Fairview Speedway, and during the 1920s, construction even began on a hotel before the project was halted by the Great Depression. Every acre tells a story, making this a property unlike any other. Imagine exploring its rich past with a metal detector—you never know what pieces of history you might uncover. Approximately 64 acres are covered with mature hardwoods, offering scenic beauty, privacy, and recreational opportunities, while the remaining acreage consists of open pasture currently maintained under an agricultural management plan. With approximately 5,200 feet of paved road frontage, the possibilities are extraordinary. Whether you envision a luxury mountain estate, an equestrian property, a vineyard or winery, a family compound, a thoughtfully designed residential community, or a long-term investment, this exceptional property provides the space, setting, and flexibility to bring your vision to life. Opportunities to acquire a legacy property of this size and character in Fairview are becoming increasingly rare. Create your own chapter in the history of this extraordinary mountain property.
