Build a high-elevation sanctuary in Balsam Mountain Preserve. Imagine waking up to crisp mountain air and breathtaking long-range views at an elevation of 3,500 feet where "sweater weather" is a year-round luxury. This premier 1.45 acre homesite features gentle, rolling topography, perfectly suited for a short effortless driveway and a custom walk-out basement design. By backing directly onto protected conservation land, your home is guaranteed privacy to capture uninterrupted wooded vistas that will never be developed. Located at the end of a private street just by Balsam's extensive private trail system and Dark Ridge Camp. Don’t miss this exceptional value for one of the best view homesites in this premier mountain community. Balsam Mountain Preserve designed as a "community within a park," is recognized as one of the lowest-density residential club communities in the Southeast where world-class amenities meet 4,400-acre private playground; 75% of the 4,400 acres is protected by a permanent conservation easement. So, whether it’s morning on the Arnold Palmer Signature course, an afternoon ride at the equestrian center, or a sunset hike on 40+ miles of private trails, the lifestyle here is unmatched!

Great location in the Webster township! Stepping into this home the great room immediately catches your eye with a wall of windows looking out over the front deck and taking in the mountain view. Included in this open space is a kitchen any cook will enjoy complete with lots of cabinets and granite countertops. The diagonal island compliments the space and the breakfast area tops it off. Down the hall you will find 2 bedrooms, a bath and the laundry room. On the other side is the large primary bedroom with spacious bath and tiled shower. Take the stairs down to the basement and you will find just as much space as upstairs and it is 85% complete needing flooring and trim. It has a stubbed in bath as well. Since it's a walkout basement it's perfect for separate living quarters to rent out or use for other family. Don't want to clutter the house with storage? Not a problem, store everything in the attractive 12 X 40 storage building in the side yard. Endless possibilities here and close to WCU, groceries and dining.
