This historical home was hit by the flooding from Hurricane Helene yet has so much to offer with 1.1 acres and all the river access you can imagine! With a beautiful location right on the Pigeon River you have kayaking and fly fishing right out your back door. Just a 1 mile walk into town you have the feel of country living just minutes aways from all the amenities Canton has to offer. A short 25 minute drive and you will find yourself with all the amenities Asheville has to offer with its bustling food and beverage scene and easy access to the Asheville Airport. So much potential as you get to design how you want your home to look and feel. Maybe don't rebuild, instead turn this property into a water sport complex for your next business venture. Think of the possibilities when you buy both 21 & 61 Riverbend Rd!
