About this home
A rare opportunity to acquire a true legacy property defined by privacy, scale, and massive, long-range views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Set along iconic Elk Mountain Scenic Highway at over 3,000 feet in elevation, this one-of-a-kind offering encompasses a vast, wooded landscape ideally suited for a private residential estate, generational compound, development, or select commercial endeavors. Natural ridgelines, soft knolls, mature hardwoods, and tranquil streams weave throughout the land, creating an immersive and secluded setting while remaining minutes from downtown Asheville’s celebrated dining, arts, and healthcare, as well as the Country Club of Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The topography lends itself to architecturally significant residences designed to capture sweeping mountain vistas and maximize privacy, with opportunities for private trails, outdoor living, and potential conservation easement benefits. In addition to the full parcel offered in this listing, the property is also available as two separately listed, smaller acreage tracts, providing flexibility for purchasers who may prefer to acquire a more tailored portion of the land. With its combination of expansive acreage, commanding mountain views, flowing streams, and exceptional proximity to Asheville’s most desirable amenities, this offering stands apart as a rare and enduring investment in Western North Carolina.
