Overview

This 8.74-acre property is located just outside of Banner Elk and features flat areas suitable for construction. Infrastructure is already in place, including southern exposure, a shared well with an installed water line to a build site, a 2-bedroom septic system, and underground power and fiber optic lines. A clear pad with a metal structure is also present at an elevation of 4,000 feet. The property includes bold springs, one of which was previously used as a water source. The land is surrounded by wooded nature, offering a seasonal view and the potential for a mountain ridge view with some tree clearing. Its location is less than 5 minutes from Banner Elk, with proximity to skiing, wineries, hiking, golf, tennis, and equestrian facilities. The property has the potential to be subdivided due to multiple deeded easements and could serve as an estate tract or a short-term rental property. There are no deed restrictions, but the property is located in the Banner Elk ETJ for residential zoning. Mature trees and multiple areas for building make this a unique opportunity.
