Where Opportunity Meets Imagination—and the Future Is Yours to Build. A place with the scale to make an impact and the flexibility to bring bold ideas to life. Located just one mile from downtown Bryson City, this remarkable 16,900-square-foot property presents a rare opportunity for investors, entrepreneurs, developers, nonprofits, educational organizations, and hospitality operators alike. Spanning three levels, the facility features a 3,600-square-foot clear-span gathering hall, large commercial kitchen, 5 offices, 9 classrooms, 6 bathrooms, expansive finished lower level, and 86 parking spaces, all set among beautifully maintained grounds. Whether envisioned as an event venue, retreat center, educational campus, family entertainment destination, brewery, mixed-use development, nonprofit headquarters, or community gathering space, few properties offer this combination of size, infrastructure, and location. The flexible floor plan provides endless possibilities, but must include use as a "church" due to deed restrictions. Bryson City's continued growth creates demand for innovative spaces that serve residents and visitors alike. Imagine what Bryson City needs next—and build it here.

Some homes are built for resale. Others are built for retirement. Very few are built by someone who spent a lifetime in the construction industry, understood every system behind the walls, and intended to live there forever. The owner, a former builder and former owner of one of the region’s most respected HVAC companies, designed and constructed this residence as his personal forever home. Every decision—from the foundation and insulation to the mechanical systems and lake access—was made with longevity, comfort, efficiency, and ease of ownership in mind. Nestled along Fontana Lake, the property offers a unique combination of quality construction, practical luxury, and waterfront enjoyment. This home experiences very little boat traffic and as a result is a peaceful setting where the water remains inviting and accessible. The home offers approx 4,000 heated square feet and is currently configured as four bedrooms plus a loft. The main level features a spacious primary suite, an additional guest bedroom, and a separate full bath, allowing for comfortable main-level living. Upstairs, the loft serves as a flexible space for an office, overflow sleeping area, or studio and has a half bath. The lower level expands the home’s versatility with two bedrooms, a full bath, fitness room, mud room, and additional storage space. Septic permit for 3 bedrooms. Heated floors throughout the lower level provide exceptional comfort year-round. What truly separates this property from many luxury homes is what lies beneath the surface. The foundation was built with additional reinforcement. The exterior is clad entirely in Hardie Board siding and soffits for long-term durability and low maintenance. Spray-foam insulation was installed throughout the structure, improving comfort while reducing energy consumption. The owner engineered and installed a sophisticated three-zone HVAC system with smartphone controls and outside-air circulation for enhanced efficiency and indoor air quality. Despite the home’s size, the owner reports the highest monthly power bill has been approximately $182. Throughout the home, quality finishes continue the theme of intentional construction. Energy-efficient windows fill the interior with natural light, while Hunter Douglas window treatments provide privacy and comfort. The kitchen features Bosch appliances, including an induction cooktop and quiet dishwasher. A water purification system, while the well produces more than 40 gallons per minute. The seller plans to install a holding tank and provide a shared well agreement for the adjacent home currently under construction. Outdoor living was designed with the same level of thoughtfulness. The upper covered deck offers a private retreat for enjoying mountain mornings, lake views, and cool evening breezes. The lower deck is accessible from both the interior and exterior of the home, making it convenient for guests returning from the water. A paved circular driveway provides easy arrival, departure, and ample parking. A detached two-car garage complements the additional lower-level garage and storage area, offering plenty of room for vehicles, boats, lake toys, tools, and outdoor equipment. The walk to the water is one of the property’s most appealing advantages. Unlike many mountain lakefront homes where access can be steep and challenging, the path to the shoreline is gentle, walkable, and suitable for side-by-side access. TVA approval is already in place for an 8’x12’ wooden dock landing. The current dock system is mounted on wheels and designed to adapt to seasonal water levels. Additional outdoor features include a grilling area, firepit, and landscaping. For buyers seeking a lakefront home, this offers something increasingly difficult to find: a residence built not for resale, but to satisfy the exacting standards of the person who intended to spend the rest of his life there.

440 Husky Road represents a truly rare opportunity to own a fully realized mountain estate in the heart of Western North Carolina—where lifestyle, land, and long-term potential converge. Spanning 27.4 acres, this property was thoughtfully developed over decades into a multi-structure compound designed for gathering, self-sufficiency, and legacy living. At its center is a 2,150 square foot primary residence, recently updated and offering 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, complete with outdoor living spaces, a screened porch, and hot tub—perfect for enjoying the peaceful mountain setting. Complementing the main home is a 1,100 square foot guest house built in 2018, offering 2 bedrooms and 2 baths—ideal for extended family, guests, or rental potential. The property’s working infrastructure is equally impressive. A large barn with five stalls, tack room, equipment room, and bathroom supports equestrian or agricultural use, while an integrated bunkhouse with bedroom, bath, and kitchenette provides additional flexible living space. A separate hay barn further enhances functionality for livestock or farming operations. Approximately 12.5 acres of fenced pasture, gently sloping and highly usable, are anchored by a creek—creating an ideal environment for horses, cattle, or a working homestead. Beyond its current use, the land offers exceptional future potential, with six buildable homesites featuring long-range Smoky Mountain views. An additional adjacent lot provides further flexibility for access or expansion. The property is offered fully furnished and includes an extensive lineup of equipment—multiple tractors, trailers, and utility vehicles—making this a truly turnkey opportunity. Located less than 10 minutes from downtown Bryson City and the Tuckasegee River, and within easy access to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this estate offers both privacy and connectivity. The region’s strong tourism and outdoor recreation economy—driven by millions of annual visitors —adds further appeal for those considering lifestyle investment or income potential. Whether envisioned as a multi-generational retreat, an equestrian property, or a long-term land investment, 440 Husky Road is a place where a vision can be built—and carried forward.
