Property Description
An investors dream, steeped in history and held by the Geruso family since 1959, this extraordinary offering represents the last remaining family holdings within the coveted Swiss Pine Lake community. Spanning approximately 125 acres across 7 parcels, the property presents a rare blend of legacy, privacy, and future potential. Included is the Rustic Lodge, rich with character and mountain charm, along with a prime homesite, off Pine Point Rd. This was personally selected by the owner as the intended location for her future residence because of the incredible views. Built from rare old-growth American Chestnut, the lodge showcases exceptional craftsmanship, warmth, and architectural details seldom found today. The dramatic main living area features vaulted ceilings with skylights, exposed log and chinking walls, and an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that anchors the space with rustic elegance. Original doors and windows preserve the home’s authentic character, while the front porch overlooks the lake, beach, recreation area, and Geruso Pavilion. Upper-level bonus rooms provide additional accommodations, and the basement offers a laundry area, flexible storage and future possibilities. Located within the established Swiss Pine Lake community, the property benefits from maintained roads, established covenants and restrictions, and thoughtful community guidelines designed to preserve the harmony, beauty, and long-term appeal of this scenic mountain setting known for its distinctive hillside homes. A truly uncommon opportunity to own a significant piece of Swiss Pine Lake history with endless possibilities for a private estate, family retreat, or legacy property. Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Mitchell County offers the natural beauty and small-town charm Western North Carolina is known for. Home to scenic mountain vistas, rushing rivers, and endless outdoor recreation, the area is ideal for hiking, fishing, camping, and exploring nearby attractions including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Roan Mountain, the North Toe River, and Pisgah National Forest. Enjoy four distinct seasons with cool mountain summers and vibrant fall foliage. Rich in Appalachian heritage, Mitchell County is known for its welcoming communities, thriving arts and crafts scene, and unique mining history centered around Spruce Pine’s world-renowned quartz deposits. Residents and visitors appreciate the relaxed rural lifestyle, local galleries, festivals, and easy access to nearby destinations including Asheville, Boone, and Johnson City. Whether seeking a full-time residence, mountain retreat, or investment opportunity, Mitchell County offers a timeless mountain setting with lasting appeal.
