About this home

Cleared, mostly level 1.52-acre mountain homesite with approximately 125 feet of depth and 550 feet of width, offering room for a custom home, garage, and sunny yard. Located in The River at Shining Rock, a small 24-parcel community surrounded by thousands of acres of protected national forest. The lot's gentle terrain provides a more usable homesite than many mountain properties, with underground power available and an 850 sq. ft. minimum home size. Enjoy approximately 3,200 feet in elevation, mountain views, cool summer temperatures, and the peaceful setting of the Little East Fork area. The property is elevated above the river, with the river located approximately one parcel away. Well and septic will be needed. Annual POA dues are just $400. Whether planning a full-time residence, vacation home, or a simple mountain getaway, this property offers a combination that can be difficult to find in the mountains: cleared land, usable terrain, room for a yard, privacy, and a small mountain community surrounded by protected natural beauty.
