About this home
Wooded 2.03-Acre Homesite in Barkers Creek Preserve — Cocker Spaniel Ct, Jackson County, NC Build your mountain retreat on this private, gently wooded 2.03-acre lot tucked into the desirable Barkers Creek Preserve subdivision in the Barkers Creek Township of Jackson County. Lot 17 offers a peaceful, tree-covered setting with room to design a home that fits the land, all within a well-established covenant-protected community just off SR 1392. Barkers Creek Preserve is a 1.5-acre-minimum-lot community governed by recorded restrictive covenants that protect long-term value: underground utilities, gravel private roads maintained by the HOA, an Architectural Review Committee overseeing all construction, and a strict single-family residential use requirement (no manufactured homes, no commercial activity). Homes must have at least 1,200 heated square feet, and generous 30-foot setbacks preserve privacy and views throughout the subdivision. This is vacant, unimproved land — a blank canvas ready for your builder or architect, with public road frontage on Cocker Spaniel Ct and access via Llewellin Ln. Located in the Qualla Fire District, 5 miles out, in the heart of Western North Carolina's mountains — close enough to Sylva and Cullowhee for convenience, far enough for quiet.
