About This Property

If you love the beauty of nature, this property is for you! Partially cleared and in the beautiful and quiet Forest Heights gated community, this 2+ acre lot is minutes from Lake James and Lake James State Park as well the gorgeous mountain views of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Golfing, hiking and biking opportunities abound. Build your dream home on the graded site and include a spacious wrap-around deck to take-in the views of your very own private forest. Create a second drive leading to a lower-level garage and a walk-out basement and patio area to help enjoy the expansive outdoor space just waiting for backyard adventures with wildlife neighbors. Both the easier slope on the right side of the property and the changing slopes to the left lead more than 300 feet to the farthest extent of your wanderings and the lowest-lying portion 80 feet below the currently graded site. There, Big Branch is surrounded by trees, shrubs, emergent mosses, and lichens and flows intermittently along a cobble-gravel and bedrock streambed. With additional grading, this area or several others along what appears to be old roadbeds and various gentle slopes could accommodate alternate build sites. RV stays are allowed for no more than 14 days out of 180 and short-term rentals are allowed, as well. Find your peaceful place in this serene setting and plan to stay for years to come!
