Property Description

Perched quietly on a tree-covered hilltop just above downtown Tryon, Fox Cottage is the kind of place that feels like a deep exhale. Built circa 1905, this timeless Craftsman-style home is full of soul—where original pine hardwood floors, vintage finishings, and warm sunlight spilling through forest-framing windows tell a story in every room. Step onto the rocking chair front porch and listen to the birds. Pour a cup of coffee in the kitchen and watch the morning mist drift through the trees. With two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a flex room perfect for guests, creative pursuits, or quiet evenings in, Fox Cottage invites you to live slowly, live fully, and breathe easier. The main level offers warmth and character with its beautiful original pine floors, while the lower level—finished with durable luxury vinyl plank flooring—provides versatility and privacy. You'll find three porches, including a secluded perch off the lower bedroom and The Bird's Nest—a dreamy private escape off the primary suite, perfect for wine at sunset or writing in the morning light. With a layout that flows easily and just the right amount of space (~1,100 heated sq ft plus finished flex area), this home is equally suited for full-time living or a charming foothills getaway. Nestled on a quiet residential street with natural landscaping, wood lap siding, and a shingle roof, the property exudes historic character while offering the ease of modern updates. Located just 1/4 mile to the future Saluda Grade Trail, and 1/2 mile to downtown Tryon, you'll find yourself a short stroll from galleries, restaurants, antique shops, and the thriving heart of Western North Carolina's wine, equestrian, and arts country. You're also just 10 minutes to Landrum, SC, and 20 minutes to Hendersonville, NC—making day trips and adventures effortless. Rarely do homes in this price range come available in Tryon—especially with this much charm, character, and proximity to everything that makes this region so beloved. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a second home, or a creative sanctuary in the foothills, Fox Cottage may be calling you home.
