Beautiful 2.55-acre lot bordering National Forest! Located in a gated community that is almost completely surrounded by Grandfather Mountain State Park and Pisgah National Forest, this setting is exceptionally peaceful and tranquil. Perched at approximately 4,300’ elevation, the lot features a sloping terrain with a small natural spring, striking rock outcroppings, and a few options for great building sites. From the higher portion of the property, enjoy layered long-range views toward Julian Price Memorial Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway in one direction and Seven Devils in the other. With underground power and internet to the lot, a 3-bedroom septic permit already in place, and short-term rentals allowed, the property is ready for your dream mountain retreat or investment. A rare opportunity to own a high-elevation homesite in a wonderful location.
