Exceptional 10.08-acre estate homesite offering an uncommon combination of privacy, usable land, elevation and substantial infrastructure already in place. Positioned at approximately 3,100′ elevation at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this heavily wooded property provides a peaceful sense of seclusion while remaining conveniently connected to Asheville and the surrounding area.
Near the road, a generous gentle-to-level building area provides an ideal setting for a substantial custom residence, with ample space to thoughtfully design the home, outdoor living areas and surrounding grounds. Beyond the primary homesite, the acreage slopes naturally down the mountain, creating separation from neighboring properties and a wooded buffer that enhances the property’s privacy and estate-like feel.
Much of the groundwork for future development has already been addressed. A private well is installed, a permit is in place for a 4-bedroom septic system, and underground electric and AT&T Fiber are available – valuable infrastructure for both everyday living and today’s work-from-home needs. Property owners have also recently invested in paving the previously gravel private roads, significantly improving access and creating a more polished approach to the property.
The setting feels tucked away and private, yet offers convenient access to South Asheville, Asheville Regional Airport, shopping, dining, medical services and the vibrant restaurants, galleries and entertainment of downtown Asheville. This balance of privacy and proximity makes the property equally appealing for a full-time residence or an elevated mountain escape.
With more than 10 acres, mature woods, a highly usable building area and key infrastructure already established, this property offers the opportunity to create something truly distinctive. Design a private mountain estate, sophisticated second home or legacy retreat with room to spread out, enjoy nature and preserve the sense of privacy that makes Western North Carolina living so special.
