About this home

Discover the perfect setting for your mountain retreat on this private 3.5-acre double lot in the gated community of Melrose Mountain in Tryon. Ideally located across the road from the community fishing lake, this beautiful property features two natural springs and is richly wooded with native mountain laurel, rhododendron, and mature hardwoods, offering both privacy and natural charm. With over 400 feet of road frontage along Lakeview Drive, the lot provides multiple potential building sites and the possibility of seasonal winter views of the lake. There is a driveway roughed in on lot 414, which connects to an old logging road that crosses a stream and runs almost to the back of the property. Whether you're planning a full-time residence or a peaceful getaway, this property offers flexibility and scenic surroundings in a tranquil mountain setting. Melrose Mountain residents enjoy access to two private lakes—a fishing lake and a swimming/paddling lake with picnic and beach area, stationary dock, and storage for canoes, paddleboards, and kayaks. The community also features a clubhouse with tennis and pickleball courts, plus miles of well-maintained private gravel roads perfect for walking and enjoying nature. Water is provided through the community well and is included in the HOA fee. As Melrose Mountain is a gated community with restricted access, please contact an agent to schedule a private tour.
