The property is approximately 5 miles from Ingles on Hwy 280 and the new Publix, which is currently under construction, with Sierra Nevada Brewery and Asheville Regional Airport just minutes away. This location offers a strong balance of privacy and convenience. Situated at the back of the neighborhood in a cul-de-sac, the lot provides excellent privacy. It backs up to two large parcels, with Pisgah National Forest beyond them, creating a protected natural backdrop and easy access to some of the best hiking, mountain biking, camping, and trout fishing in Western North Carolina. The homesite is fully wooded with mature hardwoods and native rhododendron and mountain laurel. Unlike many lots in the community, Lot 104 features a usable, level build site. The road up from the cul-de-sac has some grade, but the building area levels out nicely and opens to a northeastern mountain view. Community features include paved roads, underground power, and wired internet. Owners also enjoy access to the 10-acre Homestead River Reserve riverfront park and clubhouse on the Mills River. If you’re looking for privacy, usable topography, and long-term natural surroundings within a well-maintained community, Lot 104 is worth a closer look. Schedule your showing today.
