Rare Private Estate with Pond, Creek, Protected Park Frontage & Equestrian Potential An exceptional opportunity to own a 14.27-acre private estate in one of the most desirable and tightly held settings in the Upstate, directly across the street from the famous Campbell's Covered Bridge Historic Park, ensuring permanently protected views and zero future development opposite the property. Further enhancing this remarkable setting, Campbell's Covered Bridge Historic Park is currently undergoing significant park enhancements, including upgraded landscaping, hardscaping, seating areas, and environmental improvements, further enhancing one of the Upstate's most iconic and permanently protected natural settings. A long approach leads to the residence, set back approximately 400 feet from the road, creating a sense of arrival, separation, and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find. The front of the property is anchored by a scenic 0.8-acre pond, offering a striking visual centerpiece and a peaceful daily backdrop, while approximately 900 feet of private creek frontage adds depth, character, and a rare connection to the land. The property has also been thoughtfully enhanced with young fruit trees, berry bushes, and developing grapevines, several of which are now beginning to bear. This lightly cultivated, evolving landscape introduces a subtle layer of natural abundance and long-term potential while preserving the open, estate-like character of the land. With more than two acres already cleared and additional areas that could be selectively opened if desired, the property also offers excellent potential for a private equestrian estate, hobby farm, vineyard, or country retreat. Located just 15 minutes from Tryon, North Carolina, one of the Southeast's premier equestrian destinations, and surrounded by numerous horse farms, riding facilities, and scenic countryside, the property is ideally positioned for buyers seeking to enjoy the renowned horse country lifestyle while maintaining exceptional privacy at home. Further enhancing its versatility, the property includes additional frontage on Stringer Road, offering the potential for a separate driveway, private guest access, future expansion, or additional homesites without compromising the integrity of the primary homesite. This portion of the property includes approximately 75 feet of road frontage where public water is available. The 2023-built residence (approximately 1,220 square feet) provides modern construction, efficiency, and flexibility, making it equally well suited as a primary residence, guest house, refined downsizing option, or the starting point for a larger estate vision. The true value lies in the land itself: its privacy, water features, protected surroundings, and remarkable versatility. Whether envisioned as a luxury estate, a private family retreat, an equestrian property, or a legacy investment, this offering presents a rare combination of acreage, natural beauty, permanently protected surroundings, and future potential in one of the Upstate's most sought-after locations. Properties offering this level of privacy, water features, protected views, estate potential, and proximity to the renowned Tryon horse country are becoming increasingly rare. This is more than a home. It is an opportunity to own a truly exceptional piece of the Carolina foothills.
