Country living at its finest–away from it all but still close enough for food, shopping and socializing in popular Orange County, NC. Situated on 16.12 acres, Smoke and Wings is perfect for a small aircraft pilot, boasting its own 12oo ft FAA registered runway and room for planes and equipment. Not a pilot or airplane owner? There’s plenty more! Three old tobacco barns make you feel like you’ve stepped back into a time long gone. A small, old barn could be home to your goat or sheep livestock dreams. Dreaming of chickens? There’s plenty of room!
On the property wild heirloom blueberries flourish during the summer months, and you’ll love discovering wild blackberries, walnut, kumquat and even pear trees and hidden throughout. And the flowers! Gorgeous roses, irises and more are in bloom from April through September. You’ll look outside your window and can’t help but see beauty flourishing all around.
With the original farmhouse built in 1952 and addition (complete with atrium) built onto it in the 1980’s, the residence is a fixer-uppers dream. Oak floors that are begging to be refinished; a rustic and wonderfully warm wood stove you’ll love to sit by during the winter months with a robust pallet stove to heat the whole home–there’s charm at every turn. With so much potential anyone who is handy can make this home (and homestead) their dream forever home.

OF NOTE:
After a years long battle with cancer, Dan Benedix, owner of Smoke and Wings since 2017, passed away in his residence in Efland. Dan loved his family, his dogs, and his farm. He spent two years single handedly clearing the property and building his dream of a runway and place where he could store his planes. Later on, the wood from the trees he felled was cut by local volunteers for The Benedix Foundation for Disaster Relief and sent to Western North Carolina to be used as fuel to keep residents warm during the long winter months. You can learn more about the Benedix Foundation and Dan’s passion for helping others at BenedixFoundation.org
