Owner Financing Considered! Exceptional Build Opportunity in Fairview Forest | Two Gently Sloping Adjacent Parcels totaling 4.45 Acres | Multiple Homesite Opportunities!
Discover the most buildable land offering in Fairview Forest, a premier 700-acre private mountain retreat and one of Western North Carolina’s most sought-after large-acreage communities. This rare opportunity includes two adjacent, gently sloping wooded parcels totaling 4.45 acres, ideally positioned near the community entrance at the bottom of the mountain—a location that combines privacy with exceptional ease of access.
Unlike many steep, limited homesites in the community, this property stands out for its gentle topography and multiple viable building sites throughout, offering true flexibility for future plans. Whether you envision a private wooded single-family residence or a multi-generational family homestead, the layout allows for two separate single-family homes—one on each parcel—each with the potential for a guest house or accessory dwelling (all location and home designs subject to HOA approval). The property has been evaluated by a soil scientist. Preliminary evaluation shows multiple homesites.
The ease of building here is a significant advantage. The mild slope dramatically reduces the complexity and cost typically associated with mountain construction, making this one of the most practical and versatile 4+ acre tracts available not just in Fairview Forest, but in the entire Asheville area. The natural setting covered in hardwoods, mountain laurel, and rhododendron provides a peaceful mountain atmosphere while preserving multiple options for orientation, privacy, and long-term use.
Enjoy the best of mountain living without sacrificing convenience. The property is just 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and the historic Biltmore Estate, and only 10 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, offering quick access to world-class dining, culture, hiking, and scenic drives.
Short-term rentals are not permitted, preserving the integrity and tranquility of the community; however, an owner may build long-term rental or investment property with 6+ month leases, adding flexibility for future income opportunities.
If you’ve been searching for a rare combination of gentle terrain, multiple build sites, community prestige, and proximity to Asheville, this property offers a standout opportunity that is increasingly hard to find so close to Asheville!
