Apple Hill Farm was built in 1890 by the Plott family, one of the original settlers of the Waynesville area. The Plott family members were from Germany and known for raising the best bear hunting dogs called the Plott Hound. The Plott Hound is the North Carolina State dog and was originally raised on our property.
Apple Hill Farm sits on 5 lush acres and is located in one of the most beautiful valleys of the Great Smoky Mountains with majestic views of Plott Valley and Waynesville Mountain. It is 7 minutes to downtown Waynesville and 30 minutes to Asheville. An entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway is just a few minutes away. Ski at Cataloochee Ski Resort. Please feel free to call me and I will provide additional information about area activities!! Waynesville is filled with quaint shops, restaurants, a local theater, and more. Many artist reside in the Waynesville area!

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
Welcome to Apple Hill Farm! Recently, I fulfilled one of my dreams! My sister and I purchased the majestic Apple Hill Farm! One of the most beautiful pieces of property in Haywood County, of the Great Smoky Mountains. I am originally from North Carolina and am now fortunate enough, to own land in "God's Country". I currently live in Atlanta which is a short 3 hour drive to The Farm. I love to watch my 9 year old son climb the 100 year old apple trees, run in the fields and play in the cold mountain stream that rambles through the property. A step back to gentler times! I hope you will allow me to share my piece of heaven with you!
Why the Owner Chose Waynesville
We chose to buy Apple Hill Farm because Waynesville, NC is still a small Southern town with a vibrant downtown with a real "Main Street, USA". It is a short drive to Asheville which offers additional activities such as The Biltmore House, yet rural enough to enjoy beautiful farmland and majestic mountain views.
The Unique Benefits of this Farmhouse
An outdoor paradise with skiing, biking, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, hunting, snow skiing and more. Shopping galore!! Art, antiques, apparel, theater, Cherokee reservation is just minutes away!
