Rare opportunity to own over 8 acres of premier riverfront property along the stunning Tuckasegee River in Dillsboro—one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after waterways for recreation and trout fishing. This exceptional parcel offers a beautiful combination of usable land, privacy, and breathtaking natural surroundings—ideal for your mountain getaway/full-time residence./Fish Camp or Executive Retreat Camp. Extensive improvements are already in place, saving you significant time and upfront cost. The property features a private well, septic system installed, gravel driveway, and a graded house pad positioned to capture expansive, year-round views of the river. A dedicated camper pad with electric and internet allows for immediate use, and a 2021 camper is available for purchase, giving you the option to enjoy the property while building. The Tuckasegee River is widely known for its delayed harvest and stocked trout waters, supporting healthy populations of rainbow, brown, and brook trout. Anglers will appreciate the mix of gentle, wadeable sections along with deeper runs and pools—making this stretch a true fly fisherman's paradise with consistent, year-round opportunity.
