About this home

The good life awaits you underneath Celo Mountain in The Cove. Build your vacation or full-time home on this beautifully timbered building lot overlooking one of the most picturesque coves to be found anywhere in the North Carolina mountains. This lot is a great value, listed almost $5000 under the assessed tax value. The cool inviting forests surrounding Lot 12 are the perfect place to build a retreat from all stress of modern living. The Cove is a meticulously maintained development with paved roads, a roaring mountain stream, beautiful ponds and multiple recreation areas. Hiking trails lead from the development all the way to Mount Mitchell. This lot has already been perc tested and has a current 4-bedroom septic permit saving time and money when you build. The owner also paid for a recent survey of the property. In The Cove, all utilities are buried and are already in place. The quiet forests surrounding Lot 12 are home to plenty of wildlife including deer, squirrels, foxes, raccoons and even an occasional bear. Even though this lot offers lots of peace and quiet, it is just a short 10-minute drive to the unique town of Burnsville. Burnsville offers many recreational opportunities including the oldest summer stock theater in the state, live music, a brewery and awesome live events on the town square including one of the largest arts and craft fairs in North Carolina. There are many excellent restaurants offering many types of food. Burnsville and Yancey County have more artisans per capita than any other area in the Southeast. Come and see this lot at the foot of Celo Mountain and you won't ever want to live anywhere else.
