About this home

Partially cleared and READY for your new mountain home, this 1.12-acre homesite offers a gently sloping build area with the potential for long-range mountain views once selective tree shaping or topping is completed. Located just 2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, with easy access to Sylva and Waynesville (approximately 15-20 minutes each), this property combines convenience with a true mountain setting. Enjoy cool summer breezes at 3,380 feet elevation, a south-facing orientation for sunny days, and beautiful sunset skies. Nature surrounds you with abundant wildlife and native plants and trees. A very flexible 1,000+ sq ft minimum build requirement makes this lot ideal for a wide range of home designs. No city taxes. Annual road maintenance dues are $300/year, with county property taxes around $195/year—an exceptional value for this location and setting.
