Private 4.16-Acre Mountain Retreat with Rustic Cabin & Seasonal Ski Slope Views
Tucked away in the heart of Sugar Grove, this 4.16-acre property offers a rare opportunity to own a private High Country retreat. Complete with a rustic cabin, rolling wooded acreage, and seasonal winter views of the Beech Mountain ski slopes, this property is an ideal basecamp for hunters, a weekend escape for nature lovers, or the perfect foundation for your future mountain home. With selective tree clearing, those stunning mountain views could be enjoyed year-round.
At the heart of the property sits a functional cabin with the essentials already in place: electricity, propane gas heat, working plumbing, and available internet access. A new roof and new insulation were just installed this year, providing a secure and practical foundation for your vision. The interior features a full kitchen area and dedicated washer/dryer hookups.
The layout includes two bedrooms, a bonus room well-suited for a home office or gear storage, and a sunroom that extends the main living space. The cabin is a true "blank canvas" opportunity, and the kitchen and bathroom are ready for a complete renovation. However, many of the remaining spaces can be transformed with simple cosmetic updates, allowing you to build significant equity while bringing your own style to the property.
The true value here is the land. Over four acres of private, unrestricted terrain provide ample space for recreation, gardening, or simply relaxing in the quiet of the mountains. This is a unique chance to acquire a substantial parcel of land with existing, valuable infrastructure at a compelling price.
Property is being sold "as-is, where-is." This opportunity is ideal for the buyer with vision. Contact us today to schedule a private showing and explore the potential for yourself.
