About this home

Exceptional opportunity to own 539.16 contiguous acres in the scenic Brushy Mountains of Caldwell County, North Carolina, ideally located within reach of several major population centers. The property is approximately 1 hour from Boone and Blowing Rock, 1.5 hours from Charlotte, and about 1 hour from Hickory, making it an ideal mountain retreat, recreational property, or long-term land investment for buyers seeking privacy with convenient access. Formerly leased by the State of North Carolina as Brushy Mountain Game Lands, this expansive tract offers proven recreational use and natural value. The land features an established network of gravel roads throughout, providing excellent internal access across the acreage—ideal for land management, hunting access, or future improvements. Rolling mountain terrain, mature timber, and diverse topography support abundant wildlife and exceptional hunting. Large tracts of this size and character are increasingly rare, especially with existing road infrastructure already in place. Seller is open to subdividing the property into smaller tracts, with a minimum of 25 acres, offering flexibility for a wide range of buyers—whether purchasing the entire acreage as a legacy holding or securing a smaller retreat parcel in the Brushy Mountains. Whether envisioned as a private mountain getaway, conservation property, recreational retreat, or long-term investment, this one-of-a-kind Caldwell County tract delivers scale, history, and accessibility that are increasingly difficult to find.
