History 

West Jefferson, North CarolinaListed in the National Register of Historic Places, West Jefferson was established in 1915. History dates back to 1779 when Colonel Ben Cleveland was awarded ownership of the valley for his efforts in battling the British at King’s Mountain. In the early 1900s, the town of West Jefferson expanded quickly with the coming of the Virginia-Carolina Railroad to bring in supplies and take out timber.

West Jefferson Real Estate 

The West Jefferson NC real estate market consist primarily of single family homes priced between $80,000 and $300,000. The city limits of West Jefferson encompasses less than two square miles and the town itself has a population of approximately 1500 residents. The West Jefferson township stretches further out and most homesites with a West Jefferson address are not within the city limits. Many of the homes for sale within the city limits are older and consist of a mixture of colonial style homes, small cottages, and single level brick ranch homes. As you move past the city limits, you will find a mixture of these type homes along with some higher priced rustic homes and log cabins which have been popular in recent years to our second home market. The West Jefferson real estate market has continued to grow as the town has become a very popular second home and retirement destination.

Location 

West Jefferson is centrally located in the county and just 30 minutes northeast of Boone and 30 minutes from the Virginia and Tennessee border. The closest large city is Hickory at almost a one hour drive. Charlotte can be reached in just under two hours.
