Many wish for a life in the mountains, but a lucky few will live out their dreams. Seize this unique opportunity to own 3.1 acres in Highlands, NC, with approximately 300 feet of frontage on the rushing Big Creek that flows behind the property. Picture your future home on this gentle home site where you will relax to the sounds of the creek and the nearby cascading waterfall. Because you're surrounded by over 25 acres of conservation easement property, this is the ultimate spot to achieve privacy, yet, a quick twelve-minute drive delivers you to downtown Highlands. Stroll the charming shops and galleries of Main Street, take in a live show at the Performing Arts Center, or catch the latest exhibit at The Bascom. Outdoor concerts at Kelsey Hutchinson Park, a plethora of upscale restaurants, and a lively schedule of arts festivals and farmers' markets will keep you busy and engaged in the Highlands community. From your secluded homestead, you also enjoy close proximity to the infamous Skyline Lodge and Oak Restaurant, recently renovated in 2021, where you can savor an easy dinner or relaxing Sunday brunch. Plus, your overflow guests will have the perfect place to stay close by when visiting. This unrestricted land with only a few roadway and utility easements (outlined in the latest 2012 survey) allows for freedom of design and building choices. The buyer is responsible for investigating a well and septic system. Due to the private setting of this property, the current owners request that prospective buyers be accompanied by a licensed real estate broker and refrain from drive-by visits. Please note that a 4-wheel drive vehicle will be required to access the property.
