Some homesites require years of planning before construction can begin. This one gives you a remarkable head start. Set on 4.4 acres within the gated community of The Lodges at Eagles Nest, extensive engineering, excavation, infrastructure improvements, and site preparation have already been completed, creating a rare opportunity to begin building your custom mountain estate far sooner than would otherwise be possible. Ranging from approximately 4,050 feet in elevation at the driveway entrance to approximately 4,160 feet at the homesite, this exceptional property captures year-round long-range northern views of Tennessee's Appalachian Mountains while offering an extraordinary sense of seclusion within one of the High Country's premier luxury communities. Surrounded by mature chestnut, red oak, and red maple trees, the property features two year-round mountain streams cascading into two natural waterfalls, creating an exceptional mountain setting that is both peaceful and unforgettable. Unlike purchasing raw mountain land, much of the heavy lifting has already been completed. A professionally engineered driveway extends approximately two-tenths of a mile into the property and features two DOT-grade bridges with timber plank decking, providing exceptional access to the future homesite. The primary building site has already been excavated, allowing the next owner the flexibility to design and construct a custom residence while benefiting from substantial infrastructure already in place. The property's layout also offers the potential for a gated entrance, creating an impressive sense of arrival. Subject to Architectural Review Board approval, the property may also offer future subdivision potential. A prior soil evaluation supports a four-bedroom homesite, while the property's size and layout may provide the opportunity for a larger septic system, subject to county approval and permitting. The North section of Eagles Nest currently requires a minimum heated living area of approximately 1,200 square feet, offering flexibility for a variety of custom home designs. Electrical service and fiber internet are readily accessible nearby. A well and septic system will be required. One of the property's greatest advantages is its location within Eagles Nest. Situated just a short distance from many of the North section's most desirable amenities, residents enjoy convenient access to Epic Chophouse, Eagles Nest Winery, the North Pavilion, Sportsman's Lodge, the owners' fitness center, sports courts, and an extensive network of hiking, mountain biking, and ATV trails. The community's newly paved rear entrance also provides quick access to Beech Mountain Resort, while downtown Banner Elk, Sugar Mountain Resort, shopping, dining, and year-round recreation are all just minutes away. Few estate homesites within The Lodges at Eagles Nest offer this combination of completed infrastructure, natural beauty, long-range mountain views, exceptional seclusion, and walkable proximity to the community's premier amenities. Combining years of completed site preparation with one of the community's most desirable locations, this is an extraordinary opportunity to create a legacy mountain estate in North Carolina's High Country.
