Escape to the Blue Ridge Foothills
Discover the ultimate freedom of unrestricted land in the heart of Burke County. This expansive 9.33-acre property offers the rare combination of total privacy, rolling wooded terrain, and the potential for stunning long-range views. Whether you’re looking to build a custom mountain estate, park an RV, or establish a sustainable homestead, this dual-parcel offering provides the canvas for your vision.
Total Privacy: Nestled at the end of a quiet drive, these two combined parcels ensure your neighbors are the trees and the local wildlife.
Unrestricted Freedom: No HOAs, no restrictive covenants. Bring your tiny home, modular, or custom build—the choice is yours.
Terrain & Views: Gently rolling slopes lead to elevated spots that, with some selective clearing, offer beautiful vistas of the surrounding North Carolina mountains.
Utilities: Power is already available at the property line (as seen in photos), significantly lowering your initial development costs.
Two for One: Sold as a single unit, these two parcels offer flexibility for future resale or the creation of a family compound.
The Best of Both Worlds
While you'll feel miles away from civilization, you are only a short drive from the amenities of Downtown Morganton, the waters of Lake James, and the hiking trails of South Mountains State Park.
