111 Fiddlehead Ln, Zirconia, NC 28790

111 Fiddlehead Lane is a rare Blue Ridge compound that pairs a substantial custom farmhouse with purpose-built event and guest support structures across 49.23 acres of meadows, rhododendron groves, waterfalls and a stream-fed pond. The main home (approx. 5,169 SF) delivers five bedrooms and five baths with artisan stonework, two prominent stone fireplaces (interior and exterior), a chef’s kitchen sized for large gatherings, and an expansive covered porch overlooking the pond. Finished spaces feel substantial without pretension — crafted millwork, hand-laid stone, and tastefully scaled rooms designed for entertaining and comfortable daily life.

Complementing the residence is a barn-style structure (constructed 2014) built to host groups: an open-event hall with commercial-grade restrooms, a catering kitchen, a private suite with full bath, lower-level storage and recreation areas, and a sweeping covered porch complete with a wood-fired pizza oven. The property also includes a separate studio building that functions as office, artist space, or additional guest housing. For outdoor living, enjoy established trails, a gazebo, custom stonework, a Trex dock on the pond, and multiple scenic overlooks across the parcel.

This estate has been operated as a wedding venue and Airbnb, showing clear upside for owners who wish to continue hospitality operations or convert the site into a private family compound with multiple dwellings. Practical systems include well water and a septic system sized to serve the multiple structures; utilities appear to be on-site (confirm capacity). Driveway access and large surface parking areas support events while preserving the privacy of the main residence.

Positioned about 30 minutes from Asheville and roughly 40 minutes from Greenville, SC, the property sits in the desirable Henderson County foothills offering both solitude and convenient access to city amenities. A detailed site plan accompanies the listing and identifies potential additional building sites — a strong plus for buyers who want to expand lodging, add cabins, or create additional amenity nodes. This is an exceptional offering for buyers seeking a turnkey mountain retreat with multiple income pathways or a legacy estate with significant character and privacy. Schedule a private showing to experience the property's scope and potential.

Zirconia sits in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, characterized by large parcels, pastoral views, wooded ridgelines and a scattering of boutique farms and private estates. The area is quiet and rural, yet within a manageable drive to downtown Asheville’s restaurants, galleries and airport. Outdoor recreation — hiking, waterfalls, and mountain biking — is a primary draw for residents and visitors alike.
