Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a breathtaking piece of serene land nestled within the pristine gated community of Cullowhee Forest. Spanning approximately 15 gently rolling acres, this expansive property offers multiple potential homesites, each positioned to capture the soothing sounds of Coggins Creek, which winds through the property, and the potential for panoramic ridge-top views. A rich tapestry of native greenery and hardwoods creates a private, natural setting well-suited to a thoughtfully designed mountain retreat, offering a tranquil ambiance that invites relaxation and reflection.
Residents enjoy access to a community trail leading to Hatcher Falls, a striking 75-foot waterfall, as well as nearby access to the West Fork of the Tuckasegee River for fishing and exploring. Just across the river, a trail leads to High Falls, where a dramatic 150-foot drop marks the base of Lake Glenville.
The community is known for its low-density design, with homesites ranging from 3 to 20 acres, offering a balance of privacy and connection. Modern conveniences, including high-speed fiber optic internet, are available throughout the neighborhood. Local wildlife, including wild turkeys, hawks, and the area’s distinctive white squirrels, is often seen throughout the landscape.
Conveniently located near Lake Glenville — the highest elevation lake east of the Mississippi — the property is also a short drive to Happs Restaurant and the dining, shopping, and amenities of downtown Cashiers. This offering presents a compelling opportunity to create a private retreat or full-time residence surrounded by the natural beauty and outdoor recreation that define the Plateau.
