Mountain property that offers privacy, water access, and dependable entry does not show up every day in Ashe County. This 3.20-acre tract in North Carolina brings together features that outdoor-minded buyers look for when they want land that feels real and usable.
The property fronts paved, state-maintained Island Ford Rd and also includes a second access point from a dirt road. Along with the acreage itself, ownership includes a reserved river access parcel nearby. The river parcel is separate from the main property, but it is available for your use whenever you want to head to the water.
If you have been searching for Ashe County NC land for sale where you can enjoy the woods, watch wildlife, fish, or launch a kayak without complicated access, this tract deserves a closer look.
From Island Ford Rd, the land slopes down naturally into the trees. That downward grade helps create separation from the pavement and allows the wooded portion to feel more tucked in as you move farther onto the property. Once you step past the road frontage, the forest becomes the focus.
The second entry from the dirt road adds flexibility. You are not limited to a single approach. Dual road access gives you options and makes the layout feel more open and practical.
This is real North Carolina mountain ground.
The 3.20 acres are wooded and carry the character expected from mountain terrain. The natural slope and tree cover create an environment that supports wildlife movement and quiet use.
Ashe County is known for strong deer populations, and wooded acreage like this often provides natural travel corridors. Whether you enjoy hunting in season, scouting deer movement, or simply observing wildlife, the setting supports it.
The reserved river access adds another dimension. While the river parcel is not physically attached to the 3.20 acres, it is included with ownership. When you want to fish, wade, or put in a kayak, you travel to the designated access point and use the river from there.
That setup gives you private wooded acreage along with a connection to moving water without requiring the main parcel to sit directly on the riverbank.
River access in Ashe County supports activities like:
Fishing in mountain water
Launching a kayak and floating downstream
Spending quiet time along the shoreline
Cooling off during warmer months
Mountain land with river access in NC, paired with paved road frontage and unrestricted status, is a strong combination in this region.
