## Description

### Agent Description
RIVERFRONT 32+ acre unrestricted tract on the Little Tennessee River near Franklin, NC - with prized angler and canoe access on a wide, gently shoaling stretch of the river. Cast a line in your waders or drop a canoe in and head down river. Rolling and mostly wooded, the property opens to a broad riverside meadow - stunning natural homesites with the river as your backdrop or mountain woodland with views all around. Long road frontage on Carnes Rd provides easy access and flexibility. With no restrictions, the options are wide open: build a private estate, establish a family compound, bring your camper or tiny home, or hold as a long-term investment. Acreage of this size with river frontage, angler access, and zero restrictions is increasingly hard to find in Macon County. Walk the land and picture the possibilities.
