About this home

*** EXPERIENCE The Queen’s Crown for YOURSELF in person! Discover what makes this setting --- What makes the Queen’s Crown? Offering a mountain perspective while other properties only offer a mountain view! Truly ONE-OF-A-KIND!! *** Let the landscape INSPIRE the architecture! Gathering spaces that celebrate the LAYERED VISTAS and private spaces that invite you to slow down and stay awhile! SUNRISE OR SUNSET, ANYONE?!? The only one perched along/on the ridge... The elevated crest and surrounding mountain slopes create a setting with dimension, character, and room to envision something exceptional! Whether planning a full-time residence, a personal retreat, or a mountain home to enjoy for generations, The QUEEN'S CROWN offers a compelling canvas for a vision that reaches BEYOND ORDINARY. Come along on the ridge, soak in the perspective, and imagine the home—and THE LIFE —you CAN AND WILL CREATE HERE!!! Imagine a residence thoughtfully designed to embrace that setting: a striking glass entry front to back that draws your eye straight through to the mountains, expansive glass bringing the outdoors into everyday living, and terraces positioned for quiet mornings, sunset dinners, and evenings beneath the stars - little to no, if at all, light pollution here! The approach is even part of the experience! Follow paved community roads to the end of Devin Ridge Lane’s cul-de-sac, where the driveway begins at the gate and leads toward your own mountaintop oasis! As you reach the crown, the landscape opens around you—wooded slopes below, mountains unfolding into the distance everywhere you look, and an expansive backdrop that gives this property its distinctive presence! This extraordinary 5+ acre property captures the beauty of an elevated mountain setting with sweeping vistas, layers of distant ridgelines, and a sense of arrival that deserves a home equally memorable! ~~~ A setting that feels wonderfully removed, with so much to experience beyond your gate—The Queen’s Crown truly reigns supreme! ~~~ Located/Accessible in/through Union Mills, in Rutherford County NC, this mountaintop escape places the best of Western North Carolina within reach! Spend your days exploring Lake Lure and Lake James, discovering the scenery around Chimney Rock, or taking a beautiful drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway! Feel like a short, yet wonderful day trip- so many options, but places such as Asheville or Charlotte, NC, offer even more opportunities for dining, arts, and adventure before you return to your own elevated retreat! In the gated (former Queens Gap community), now known as Great Sky! Part of the property lies in McDowell County and part in Rutherford County. Great Sky features community/shared well water infrastructure and underground utilities serving portions of the community, with electrical service provided through REMC.
