The 0.75-acre parcel is surrounded by natural beauty and offers opportunities for hiking, wildlife watching, and exploring, with Unicoi, TN, Bakersville and Burnsville, NC, each less than 30 minutes away.A distinctive, hand-crafted 16-by-16-foot timber-frame structure anchors the property, offering a starting point for a creative studio, mountain retreat, guest space, or future custom residence. Currently permitted by Mitchell County as an art studio, it was built by the artist who built the Barley House.

The seller will include floor plans for the conversion, providing a head start on bringing that vision to life. Whether you work with a builder or complete the project over time, Lot 50 (street address is 191 Bens Bend Dr) offers the flexibility to create a one-of-a-kind mountain property rooted in lasting craftsmanship.
