About this home

Build your mountain dream home in the sought-after Mountain Glen subdivision, nestled in the four-season NC High Country.

The location is for year-round recreation and lifestyle enjoyment, with easy access to golf, hiking, fishing, sightseeing, dining, shopping, and nearby wineries.
