Charming farmhouse on 10 acres

Incredible setting with views from a ten-acre estate only minutes to downtown historic Saluda, North Carolina, fifteen minutes to Hendersonville, twenty minutes to the Tryon International Equestrian Center and thirty minutes by interstate to Asheville or Greenville. Large deck that overlooks the valley and the mountains. There’s also a lower outside sitting area with a firepit and sitting area to enjoy, and we think you’ll find the setting very nice.

We do allow some pets with a fee of $125 per pet. Prior approval needed. You'll find there's plenty of room in and around The Escape if you and the others just want some quiet time to read a book, meditate or just play some outdoor games in the yard. We want to let you know this is an older home that we’ve made quite a few upgrades to. It’s a work in progress but we think you’ll find it well kept. All the Bedrooms and Bathrooms have new linens and are freshened up as needed, and we've priced it accordingly. A little history on this property, The Escape at Betty and Gil’s Farm was originally owned by Betty and Gilbert Graham. It’s now owned by their children. Betty and Gil passed away in 2021, at the ripe old age of 92. Gil and Betty were born and raised in Miami, and their ancestors have a rich history in Miami and the Florida Keys, and at one time were pineapple farmers on Elliott Key. For many years, Betty, Gil, and their 4 kids camped in the North Carolina Mountains for summer vacations, and most often, they had 8 to 10 families from Northwest Baptist Church in North Miami come along as well. It was quite the caravan, and many wonderful memories for all! In 1973, Betty, Gil and their close friends, Ollie and Shirley Singleton purchased this 17-acre Farm from Claude and Vivian Thompson, who built the original house in 1935. Claude was a farmer and took his produce by horse and wagon to the nearby cities to sell. Claude never drove a car! In 1979 Gil and Betty moved from Miami to live full-time in Saluda. They lived in the original farmhouse while Gil built this home, mainly by himself!
