Escape the ordinary at this private off-grid homestead tucked into the wooded mountains of Rutherford County. Offered with two adjoining parcels totaling approximately 23 acres, 464 Mason Road combines a rustic 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin with the infrastructure for a more self-sufficient way of life. Originally built as a hunting cabin in 1984, the home has evolved into an established mountain homestead surrounded by woods, trails and nature. The property operates completely off-grid with solar power, lithium battery storage, spring-fed water with filtration and holding tank, propane for the range, dryer and heat, supplemental wood-stove heat, a backup gas generator and Starlink internet. The county records 540 square feet of living area, while generous porch and deck areas extend the livi ng experience outdoors. Outside is where this property really begins to tell its story. A fenced garden, electrified greenhouse, two chicken coops, 15' x 15' shop and woodshed provide an established foundation for homesteading and permaculture. The sellers also report hiking trails, two waterfalls and an underground camper setup with water and septic connections. Whether your dream is homesteading, a private mountain retreat, recreational acreage or simply living with fewer ties to the grid, this is an opportunity to step into a lifestyle that has already been started for you. And like any good mountain property, these woods come with stories. Western North Carolina has a long tradition of Bigfoot folklore—including the local legend known as Knobby. Sit on the porch, listen to the woods and decide for yourself. Wildlife sightings are likely. Knobby sightings are not guaranteed.
