About this home

Rarely does a canvas of this caliber and readiness emerge within the guarded tranquility of Biltmore Forest. Spanning an expansive 2.03 acres, Lot 24 on Cedar Hill Drive represents one of the final remaining opportunities to establish a significant architectural legacy in North Carolina’s most prestigious residential enclave. This is not merely a parcel, but a meticulously prepared estate site characterized by its extraordinary scale and absolute seclusion. Having been recently cleared to showcase its natural contours, the property offers a "clean-site" advantage that allows architects and developers to immediately visualize a grand-scale residence, significantly streamlining the design and pre-construction timeline. The land’s topography is its primary asset—a sophisticated, gentle slope perfectly suited for a multi-level estate with a daylight walk-out lower level and seamless transitions to expansive outdoor living. Unlike the constrained footprints typical of the area, this two-acre sanctuary provides the rare luxury of space, allowing for wide motor courts, resort-style pool integration, and sprawling gardens, all shielded by a lush, mature perimeter. For the builder, it is a project of unparalleled potential; for the client, it is the definitive foundation for a home that honors the heritage of the Forest while embracing modern proportions. The lifestyle afforded by this location is as irreplaceable as the land itself. Positioned moments from the historic Biltmore Forest Country Club and its championship Donald Ross golf course, the site balances quiet mountain solitude with the sophisticated social fabric of a private club community. With the Blue Ridge Parkway as a literal neighbor and the culinary excellence of downtown Asheville just minutes away, Lot 24 offers a dual identity of mountain sanctuary and urban proximity. For those prepared to execute a vision of refined mountain living, comprehensive build plans are available to qualified parties, offering a turnkey conceptual starting point for this singular investment.
