Horse lovers, this is the equestrian estate you have been waiting for. Set on 15 unrestricted acres in the highly sought-after Healy Fields area, this stunning creekfront horse farm was made for riding, raising, and enjoying horses in one of the most beautiful settings in Western North Carolina. The community is very private and peaceful, surrounded by other nearby farms and horse-oriented properties, and conveniently located just minutes from Andrews, Marble amenities . The property is very close to the Nantahala National Forest, an amazing riding area where you can explore miles of scenic trails, mountain streams, and waterfalls just a short trailer ride from home. Andrews is a true horse town, known for its annual Western North Carolina Wagon Train, along with popular rail car tours that showcase the area's beautiful scenery. The turnkey, well-equipped four-stall horse barn features spacious 12' x 12' stalls, each outfitted with rubber mats, a barred window with shutters, and overhead electrical outlets for fans to keep horses comfortable during warmer weather. The barn includes a dedicated tack room with running water, its own electrical panel, and a convenient side entrance directly off the driveway, with the potential to add a hot water tank and washer and dryer for even greater convenience. An exterior water spigot makes filling buckets, rinsing equipment, and general barn cleanup easy, and a separate feed room keeps hay bales, feed, and bedding organized, readily accessible and a covered round bale feeding area. Attached to the barn is a large pole barn offering versatile storage for tractors, mowers, round bales, farm equipment, and accessories. Large fenced pastures ready for horses or livestock, and additional improvements include a carport/hay storage area, an area with water fowl coups (ducks and geese), and multiple outbuildings. The land itself is truly special, with open, gently rolling pastures, mature timber, two beautiful creeks, including a picturesque stream that winds for several hundred yards through fertile bottomland pasture, and a duck filled mini-pond that adds to the tranquil setting. The expansive grounds offer room to roam and explore, along with ideal areas to create a private pistol range. The custom-built, recently updated 4-bedroom home offers approximately 2,575 square feet of comfortable living with excellent flow and abundant natural light from windows that frame the surrounding pastoral landscape and mountain views. A striking rustic stacked stone fireplace anchors the living room, creating a warm, inviting focal point for gathering with family and friends. The spacious kitchen is designed for both everyday cooking and effortless entertaining, with generous countertops, plenty of cabinet space, and pantry. The large primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a relaxing garden jet tub. Outdoor living is equally exceptional, with open and screened porches overlooking lush pastures and sweeping mountain scenery, while the front yard offers a peaceful sanctuary beneath magnificent, mature trees. A two plus car garage provides convenient parking and storage. Together, the home, barn, and land create an excellent setup for horse owners, hobby farmers, or anyone seeking practical barn space, ample equipment storage, and room to pursue a true country lifestyle. Equestrian properties offering this level of privacy and usability, so close to world-class riding, are becoming increasingly difficult to find, especially in a horse-friendly community like Healy Fields.
