Being offered at auction, two farms nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. Both properties offer fenced pasture land, amazing views, acres of mature timber and mountain streams. Located under an hour from the Tryon International Equestrian Center, either farm could become a wonderful place for those who love horses, the active lifestyle and the great outdoors.

95AC± FARM: This is one of the most picturesque farms in Western North Carolina. It is very rare to find the combination of great views, fenced pasture and a beautiful clear mountain stream all on one tract. This property has all of that and more.

There is also an historic barn and silo on site that could easily be restored. An old log cabin that once sat on the property has been disassembled and stored in the barn. The current owner would be delighted for the buyers to have the cabin so that it could be reassembled on the land. Many gorgeous homesites exist all offering bold layered mountain views. Great hunting for deer, turkey and grouse is available on the property.

Thank you for participating in this Williams & Williams Auction. It is important that you familiarize yourself with the terms and conditions as all sales are final and irrevocable. The terms of sale are non-negotiable. Good luck and good bidding!

Registration at the auction (online and/or in person) finalizes each bidder's agreement to the terms and conditions of sale as stated in the Contract and its Addenda which are incorporated by reference into your bidding. Do not bid until you have read the terms and conditions. By bidding you are representing to Williams & Williams ("Broker" and/or "Auctioneer") and the seller that you have read and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions for this sale as stated herein. DO NOT BID unless you have registered, received a Bidder's Card and Auction Day Notes, and have read and agreed to be bound by the terms of sale in the Contract as they are enforceable against you upon becoming a high bidder.

All properties are sold "AS IS, WHERE IS" with no financing, inspection or other contingencies to sale. Williams & Williams represents the Sellers only and does not inspect properties on bidder's behalf. Read the Contract and Auction Day Notes to determine the existence of any disclosures, exclusions, representations and disclaimers. Do not bid if you have not inspected the property(s). By bidding you agree to all disclosures.

Buyers receive a deed and Title Insurance Policy as provided by the Closer indicated in the Contract (any mobile/manufactured housing not legally affixed to the property shall only be conveyed by a Hold Harmless Agreement or Quit Claim Bill of Sale unless otherwise noted in the Disclosures). Current year's taxes are pro-rated through day of closing as is customary.

A Buyer's Premium of 5% ($0 minimum) will be added to the high bid and included in the total purchase price. Please see the Auction Day Notes, The Contract for Sale, and/or the Auctioneer for specifics about the property you wish to bid on.

Each high bidder must make a 10% ($5,000 minimum)  non-refundable deposit immediately following auction.

All auctions are subject to court or seller approval. Most sales are approved within 7 days. Buyers are not allowed possession until Closing and filing of the deed, at which time the property should be re-keyed. If for any reason the court or Seller approval is not granted, the Down Payment shall be returned in its entirety to the high bidder. "Showing" requests from Buyers after the auction may not be able to be accommodated.

If more than one property is being auctioned, the Auctioneer may choose to offer a group of the properties for auction at the same time. This is called "BUYER'S CHOICE" and is to accommodate buyers who have an interest in more than one property and/or have 2nd and 3rd choices if they are out bid for a favorite property. Upon winning the bid, please choose which property, or properties, you want. You pay the high bid price for each property selected. Each sale is final and stands alone. Remaining properties are then offered in another round of bidding. Anyone may bid at any time, including prior High Bidders.

Williams & Williams and the Seller expressly disclaim any liability for errors, omissions or changes regarding any information provided for these sales. Please read the Contract and Auction Day Notes for a full and complete understanding of Williams & Williams and Seller's disclaimers.
