About this home
A rare opportunity to own more than 99 unrestricted, un-zoned acres just outside the city limits and conveniently located off Highway 64. This expansive tract offers privacy and a unique investment opportunity while remaining only minutes from downtown restaurants, shopping, medical facilities, hiking trails, and the many outdoor attractions of Western North Carolina. The property features steep mountain terrain with potential for long-range mountain views from select areas. The land does not currently have direct NCDOT-approved access from Highway 64 or access from other boundaries. Any prospective buyer would be responsible for preparing and submitting site plans to NCDOT for consideration and possible approval of future access. City utility connections are not currently located on the subject property. Utilities are situated across the river near the Wells Connector, and buyers should independently investigate the availability, feasibility, and cost of extending any services to the property. With its substantial acreage, convenient location, and future possibilities, this property may appeal to a buyer looking to purchase land at a discounted price based on its current limitations while recognizing its long-term investment or unique development potential. The sale is subject to third-party approval by the Cherokee County School Board and a 10-day upset bid period. Please reach out for additional information regarding the approval and upset bid process.
