Couple With Steady Income and Down Payment Looking for Land With a Livable Structure in Western NC

Hello All,

My partner, Great Pyrenees and I are looking for land with a legal and livable structure within an hour of Asheville. I understand "livable" is subjective. We're not interested in intentional communities, land shares, etc. We look at all of the mainstream MLS listings often, but we'd rather buy direct from a homeowner. We have a down payment, steady income and good credit. Owner financing is ideal, but not a necessity. Thank you in advance.
