About this home
The private gated Bear Ridge community in Bakersville, NC, this beautiful wooded mountain lot offers privacy, natural beauty, and real potential for long-range mountain views with some clearing. This lot would be a great spot for that mountain get-a-way! Bear Ridge is a quiet, gated community with annual dues of just $250 per lot per year. The minimum home size is 850 square feet—no manufactured or modular homes allowed. Short-term rentals are permitted according to community guidelines. The community features two nice common areas for all owners and guest to enjoy. One sits right along Little Rock Creek (a stocked trout stream) with a picnic shelter—perfect for fishing, wading, relaxing, or just listening to the water. The second is a larger pavilion and gathering space great for family events or community get-togethers. You'll be surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, waterfalls, hiking trails, state parks, and national forest. Wildlife is plentiful—deer, squirrels, and black bear are commonly seen. Expect cool summers, fresh air, and that true mountain feel. Roan Mountain and several trout streams are close by, and Banner Elk and Sugar Mountain are only about 35 miles away. The lot is easily accessible via a well-maintained gravel road behind the gated entrance. Electric and internet are available in the community. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat, a full-time mountain home, or an investment property, this lot gives you the perfect mix of seclusion and convenience. You're still within about an hour of Johnson City and Bristol to the north, Asheville to the south, and the Boone/Banner Elk/Blowing Rock area to the east. Lake James is a little over an hour away. Development restrictions help protect the character and value of the community. Come enjoy the beauty of the mountains in a friendly, low-key gated setting.
