About this home

If you've been searching for the perfect place to put down roots in the mountains, this one is worth a close look. Lot 29 sits in Poplar Crest, an established and intentionally small community of just 40 lots spread across 80 wooded acres, a neighborhood that was designed to feel like the forest, not fight against it. Valid Septic permit on file The lot itself is level and beautifully wooded, with native rhododendron, mountain laurel, and ferns already thriving underfoot. It's the kind of land that feels like it's been waiting for the right owner, someone who wants to build a home that fits naturally into its surroundings rather than imposing on them. Community amenities are simple and perfectly suited to mountain living: peaceful ponds and a walking trail that invite you to slow down and enjoy what's right outside your door. And the location? Hard to beat. You're just 5 minutes from the charming town of Brevard and the same distance from the entrance to Pisgah National Forest, with DuPont State Forest only 15 minutes away. Whether you're a hiker, mountain biker, fly fisher, or just someone who loves having world-class outdoor recreation close at hand, this community delivers. Beyond the trails and trees, the community sits a short distance from French Broad River access, ideal for paddling, fishing, or simply watching the river roll by. And looking ahead, the approved Ecusta Trail will soon connect Brevard to Hendersonville right through this corridor, making non-motorized access to both towns a genuine possibility for residents. Opportunities like this, in an established neighborhood, with this much natural character, at this price point, don't come around often in Western North Carolina.
