This exceptional ±19.87-acre property along Bill Collins Road presents a remarkable blend of privacy, accessibility, and unlimited potential in the heart of Polk County; Columbus Tryon Area. With no restrictions and mixed-use zoning, this property serves as an ideal canvas for the most discerning buyer—whether your vision includes a grand private estate, multi-generational family compound, equestrian or farm property, or a thoughtfully planned residential development. The land is beautifully appointed with an established driveway from Bill Collins Road, providing access to a private primary homesite already improved with underground power, a well and 4-bedroom septic system. The homesite is perfectly positioned to stunning mountain views, offering an exceptional setting for a custom residence. A large open tall fescue pasture, combined with gently rolling topography and mature tree buffers, creates a sense of openness and privacy that is increasingly rare. The property’s layout and terrain reveal numerous opportunities for additional homesites, making it well suited for future expansion or development. The lower portion of the property features a natural spring, a creek, and established walking trails, enhancing the land’s serene, park-like character and recreational appeal. All essential infrastructure is in place and ready—site-built home, manufactured home, or camper/RV hookup can easily be established, allowing for immediate enjoyment or phased development. This is a property where much of the time-intensive groundwork has already been completed. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Columbus, the Hwy 74 bypass, Lake Lure, and the Tryon International Equestrian Center, this property offers refined country living with convenient access to the premier destinations of Western North Carolina. Opportunities of this caliber are exceedingly rare in Polk County. Whether preserved as a legacy estate, cultivated as a working farm, or developed into an exclusive residential enclave, this property offers sophistication, flexibility, and enduring value. Owner is a licensed Realtor.
