Due to the health concerns created by Coronavirus we are offering personal 1-1 online video walkthough tours where possible.
Explore this 7.56 +/- unrestricted acres of mountain land where nature, privacy, and opportunity come together. This special property borders conservation lands, giving you a protective buffer of hundreds of acres of forest for wildlife habitat and long-term peace of mind. Whether you’re looking for a woodland retreat, a recreational getaway, or the perfect site for your future home, this property is ready for your vision. City water is already in place with a meter by the gate, and initial evaluations indicate septic suitability for 3 bedroom home. A roughed-in driveway with culverts helps manage water flow and erosion, leading to a small clearing that makes an excellent home site. From here, you can begin enjoying the property right away or move forward with your building plans. Access is easy via Old Bee Tree Road, a state-maintained road with no HOA or private road fees. Explore beyond the homesite, and you’ll find trails that follow the boundary with the Southern Appalachian Highlands conservation areas. Climb toward the ridge, and you’ll be rewarded with seasonal long-range mountain views—including Mt. Pisgah visible in winter through the trees. In the central portion of the land, a natural spring bubbles from the earth, flowing toward Bee Tree Creek, a reminder of the property’s mountain watershed character. While much of the land is stable and wooded, there is a small area of slope movement caused by Hurricane Helene and some down trees that are naturally regenerating. The entrance lies within a small area of floodplain, and very small upper area of of the tract falls under the county’s steep slope overlay. The property is located next to and just upstream from the Chemtronics Superfund site. According to the EPA, capped and fenced areas limit direct contact exposure and there is no current exposure to contaminated groundwater. As an extra safety precaution, the water supply comes from the City of Asheville and land surrounding most of the site has been placed into conservation to ensure long-term protection. This property offers a rare combination: acreage with some utilities in place, privacy enhanced by conservation boundaries, and a chance to create a personal retreat in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
