Where timeless craftsmanship meets the open road, this one-of-a-kind Lansing estate offers an exceptional High Country lifestyle for the car collector, motorcycle enthusiast, craftsman, or buyer who simply wants room for the things they love. Set on approximately almost 4 level acres with nearly 500 feet of frontage along beautiful Big Helton Creek, this historic 1879 farmhouse pairs old-world character with a rare oversized four-car garage and additional outbuildings-providing abundant space for classic cars, motorcycles, recreational equipment, a workshop, or treasured collections. Inside, the home's history and craftsmanship take center stage with soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, generously sized rooms, multiple Rumford-style gas fireplaces, radiant heat, central air, and an updated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances. Step outside and you're surrounded by everything that makes the North Carolina High Country special. Spend the morning casting a line in stocked Big Helton Creek, work on a favorite car or project in the garage, then head out for an afternoon drive or ride along the winding mountain roads surrounding Lansing, Grassy Creek, and Ashe County. Come home to unwind on the expansive covered porches with the sound of the creek in the background. The property also features mature apple trees, a Concord grape arbor, garden space, fenced areas, and the freedom of no HOA. Whether your passion is automobiles, motorcycles, woodworking, fishing, outdoor recreation, or simply having the space to enjoy life on your own terms, this property delivers something increasingly difficult to find. More than a historic mountain home, this is a place for the collector, adventurer, and enthusiast who wants an authentic High Country property with the space to pursue their passions.
