Located in the highly desirable mountain community of Cashiers, North Carolina, this 0.81-acre property presents a prime redevelopment opportunity in one of Western North Carolina’s most sought-after vacation markets. The existing structure is a complete tear-down and holds no contributory value—this is strictly a land opportunity.
The property previously featured a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home (built in 1972, approx. 1,066 sq ft), but its condition warrants full removal, making it ideal for new construction. Surrounded by higher-end homes and strong appreciation trends, this lot offers the perfect setting for a custom mountain retreat or luxury rental.
Positioned near the Highlands/Cashiers corridor, the location benefits from strong demand driven by second-home buyers and vacationers seeking the Blue Ridge Mountain lifestyle. The generous lot size provides flexibility for design, privacy, and maximizing long-term value.
Sold as-is. Tear-down required. Bring your builder—this is a high-upside land play in a premium market.
