Old Ford Ranch is an equestrian estate nestled between the private Hickory Ridge and Silver Slip communities just 3 minutes from the Cashiers Crossroads and 15 minutes from Highlands, NC. Named after an old 1926 Model T found on the property’s old logging road during its inception, this 26+ acre gated estate is the genuine article standing proud with breathtaking southern exposure and panoramic views of Whiteside Mountain, Little Terrapin, Brushy Face & The Devil's Courthouse. A legacy estate with frontage on US Hwy 64, it also has two private entries leading to the authentic farmhouse surrounded by mature dogwoods, 2-story barn, and fenced pasture. The farmhouse features a traditional layout with 4 BR, 4 BA, 2 covered decks, 3 fireplaces, keeping room, and dining room with wall of windows overlooking the perfectly manicured pasture and vistas beyond. Recently, the home was lovingly renovated with updated kitchen and all new bathrooms, while the barn with two stalls, tack & feed rooms, and huge open loft has received new tin roof. Old Ford Ranch continues to inspire all those who visit!
