Tucked away in the eastern corner of Buncombe County, this property is your chance to unplug and cultivate a life away from it all. The parcel includes the best part of a large, gently sloping ridge that drops from approximately 2,700 to 2,600 feet in elevation. The slope faces the southeast, which means you will be on the sunny, dry side of the mountain. The property is wooded with plenty of rhododendrons, hardwoods, blackberries, and mountain laurel, yet there is an open feel to the crest of the ridge. The 30-foot easement has a graded dirt road bed in place. Once you enter the property on the easement, you will see the potential build sites immediately. Walking up the ridge will unveil even more potential. Eventually, the grade will steepen toward the northwestern corner of the parcel. Think of this as a natural barrier advocating for your privacy. This property is zoned Open Use, so there is no need to worry about anyone else telling you how to develop your land as you explore the possibilities. This parcel is ideal for a secluded life on the mountain, located just a 25-minute drive to Black Mountain and a 20-minute drive to Lake Lure. Come check this one out for yourself!

Imagine waking up to sweeping, year-round views of the iconic Seven Sisters and Craggy mountain ranges, watching the morning mist rise over the valley, and looking down at the twinkling lights of downtown Black Mountain below. What truly sets this lot apart is its balance of convenient seclusion. While nestled against a mature, 115-acre nature conservation preserve with miles of hiking trails, you are decidedly not isolated. 5 Minutes to the award-winning restaurants, local breweries, and artisan shops of downtown Black Mountain. 1 Mile to gourmet markets, coffee shops, and the premium indoor pool/fitness facilities at Cheshire Village. 20 Minutes to the vibrant cultural center of downtown Asheville. Building on a mountain slope can be daunting, but 97 Settings Blvd provides an incredibly premium head start with rare, city-grade conveniences already at the lot line: Connected directly to city water and public sewer (no costly well-drilling or septic complications). High-speed fiber-optic internet and underground electric/natural gas preserve your pristine mountain views. Premium paved roads with curbing and structural sidewalks—a genuinely rare luxury for high-elevation Western NC neighborhoods. As an owner, you gain access to an immaculately run, debt-free, owner-governed HOA with top-tier community spaces: A stunning stone-and-timber craftsman clubhouse featuring a massive double-sided stone fireplace and over 1,000 sq. ft. of viewing decks. Over 2 miles of professionally maintained hiking trails tracking pristine mountain creeks. Community nature parks, a playground, and dark-sky compliant infrastructure to maximize stargazing.
