About this home
Tucked into the Blue Ridge Mountains just 5 minutes off Hwy 321, this 6.71-acre mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience — 5 minutes to Blowing Rock, 10 minutes to Boone, and 15 minutes to Lenoir. Whether you're dreaming of a family getaway, a weekend cabin, or a short-term rental investment in one of the High Country's most sought-after markets, this property delivers. The land is unrestricted and can be subdivided, giving you the freedom to build your vision without the constraints of covenants or HOA rules. With nearby VRBOs and vacation cabins already drawing steady traffic, this parcel holds strong appeal for investors looking to tap into the area's thriving short-term rental market. An already-cleared area near the front of the property offers a natural, ready-made home site or cabin pad, while the remaining acreage — roughly 97% wooded — is blanketed in native rhododendron, hardwoods, and classic Blue Ridge Mountain flora. Two small running streams cross the property, adding the soothing sound of water to the wooded setting. Enjoy both long-range mountain views and immediate wooded views, with the added bonus of bordering National Forest land for extra privacy and a true sense of escape. Power and internet services are accessible to the property, making remote work or full-time mountain living a realistic option. Access is via a deeded right of way — a gravel and dirt road suitable for 4WD vehicles or UTVs, with a short walk in from the parking area, keeping the setting quiet, wooded, and undisturbed. Whether you're searching for a peaceful weekend escape, a long-term homesite, or a smart investment near Blowing Rock and Boone's booming tourism corridor, this 6.71-acre parcel is a rare find in Caldwell County's High Country.
