About this home
50+ private acres just minutes from Black Mountain with mountain views, existing internal access, multiple potential homesites, and the flexibility to create a private estate, family compound, or explore subdivision opportunities. Set behind the gates of Forest Brook Estates, this wooded mountain tract offers an unusual combination of acreage, privacy and accessibility. A rough-cut drive already extends into the property, with several areas that may offer building potential and long-range eastern views with selective clearing. Mature hardwoods, wildlife and surrounding ridgelines create the mountain setting buyers come to Western North Carolina to find. Approximately 15 minutes to Black Mountain, 35 minutes to Asheville and 20 minutes to Lake Lure. Whether the vision is one exceptional mountain retreat or multiple homesites, this is an opportunity to control a substantial tract close to town. Buyer to verify subdivision potential, septic, utilities, road requirements, restrictions and intended use.
