For the first time, Ly-Nard Hills Farm is offered for sale. There are places that hold more than land and buildings. Places that carry the quiet echo of hoofbeats at dawn, the soft murmur of coaching voices, and the laughter of riders who arrived as students and left as champions. Ly-Nard Hills Farm is one of those rare places. For decades this iconic farm has been home to a family whose passion for horses and people reached far beyond the fences. From these fields and arenas, show jumpers were carefully developed and Olympic-level equestrians refined their craft. The lessons taught here, the standards set here, and the kindness shared here touched thousands of lives across the country and around the world. Locally, the farm became a beloved gathering place—where community, mentorship, and lifelong friendships took root alongside the horses. Now the time has come for a new chapter. The main house offers four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, while a spacious guest house could be made into two separate homes as rentals—six bedrooms total one with a full kitchen and the other with a kitchenette. Back of property is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with pasture and two run-in sheds for horses. Nearby groom cabins with two bedrooms and two bathrooms complete the living accommodations, making the property well-suited for continued equestrian use or a private retreat. The barn features 34 stalls. This is more than a property. It is a living legacy offered for sale, ready for the next steward who understands that land this special is meant to be used, loved, and shared. The farm presents remarkable flexibility: continue as a premier horse farm, create a private family estate with equestrian amenities, develop a riding camp or educational program, or explore dividing portions of the land while preserving its character. Some of this acreage is also included in the listing for **9818 State Road Hwy 9**, offering additional options. The property also offers direct access to the CETA horse trail system, allowing riders to enjoy miles of scenic equestrian trails right from the farm. Sold as-is. Some owner financing is available. Campers and a variety of farm and equestrian equipment may be purchased separately, allowing a smooth transition for the next owner. This is a rare chance to own a piece of equestrian history—land that has shaped riders, built character, and created memories that still travel the world. The fences still stand. The arenas still wait. The next chapter is ready to begin.

A Legacy Mountain Estate Adjacent to Shunkawken Falls on White Oak Mountain in Columbus, NC! ***Some homes offer beautiful views... Few offer a soundtrack!!!*** Some properties are purchased because of the home. Others are purchased because of what can never be recreated. This extraordinary White Oak Mountain estate offers both. For those who understand that true luxury is defined by rarity, this is more than a residence—it is an experience, a legacy, and an irreplaceable mountain sanctuary. Offering three separately deeded parcels, three bedrooms, two full baths, two half baths, and an unmatched setting beside Shunkawken Falls, this remarkable estate combines architectural character with one of Western North Carolina's most captivating natural landscapes. While interiors can always be personalized, you cannot recreate three adjoining parcels on White Oak Mountain with panoramic mountain vistas, a private gated approach, and the privilege of living beside one of Polk County's most treasured waterfalls. Visitors travel this scenic mountain to experience Shunkawken Falls and continue to the iconic Sunset Rock Overlook. Here, breathtaking views and the soothing sounds of cascading water become part of everyday life. There is no need to chase the perfect sunset or search for the best overlook—your front-row seat begins the moment you arrive home. A gated entrance winds through towering hardwoods, dramatic boulders, and striking iron sculptures before revealing sweeping views across Columbus, the foothills, and into Upstate South Carolina. Designed to embrace the landscape, the residence features soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, a dramatic spiral staircase, an architectural open elevator, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a wraparound deck with sleek glass railings that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. Morning coffee, evening cocktails, and unforgettable gatherings are elevated by the ever-changing mountain scenery and the peaceful soundtrack of the waterfall below. Three separately deeded parcels provide exceptional privacy, flexibility, and long-term value while offering the rare opportunity to create a true legacy estate. The greatest investment has already been made by nature itself—the land, the elevation, the waterfall, and the views. Although wonderfully secluded, the property is just minutes from Columbus, Tryon, and Landrum, the Tryon International Equestrian Center, FENCE, wineries, golf, hiking, fine dining, and convenient access to Asheville, Greenville, Hendersonville, and Spartanburg. Showings by appointment only. Proof of funds or lender pre-approval required prior to confirming a private tour - call or text with any questions or to set up an appointment!
