443 Shand Street, Saluda, NC 28773

Believed to be Saluda's first home, this 1885 landmark sits just blocks from downtown but lives in a rhythm all its own. The original glass still shimmers in many windows. Heart pine floors, beadboard walls, and handmade brick in the kitchen speak to a different era-but the feeling here isn't dated, it's soulful. Two porches line the home-one screened and summer-slow, the other perfect for crisp mornings and late-night stories. Garage below, guest suite above-the old carriage house still has stories to tell. From the porch, mountain views stretch southward nearly to Carolina's edge. The kitchen is separate, the layout unexpected, and conventional financing won't apply-but creativity will. This home is one-of-a-kind-layered with history, full of character, and waiting for its next chapter. The list price is a starting point-what matters most is where the right offer leads.
