Acres(Lot)

This rare, expansive 70.3 +/- acre wooded tract is tucked into a private cove in Asheville NC. The property combines woodland privacy, natural beauty, conservation opportunities, and development potential in a setting where large parcels are becoming increasingly scarce. The land is predominantly covered in an upland hardwood forest, with multiple small streams/creeks weaving through the terrain, creating a serene mountain atmosphere. About 10 acres of lower cove offer gentle, usable topography, ideal for building, recreation, or gardening. A paved driveway leads to a former home site, once the location of a manufactured home with additions (no contributory value), and underground electricity is already in place, offering valuable infrastructure for future development. A second access f ollows an interior finger ridge all the way to the top of the property, where a beautiful saddle-shaped ridgeline opens up to panoramic views across Bearwallow Mountain, Little Pisgah Mountain, and layered Blue Ridge peaks. This ridge on the property has about 5 acres of mountain top gentle topography. With selective clearing, long-range vistas can be revealed throughout the tract, while overgrown logging roads and trails offer potential for hiking paths, riding trails, or expanded access. The property’s primary orientation is southeast-facing, with a portion northeast-facing, ensuring excellent sunlight as well as shaded woodland diversity. Zoned Residential Low-Density District (R-LD) with steep slope and protected ridgeline overlays, this parcel invites both creativity and stewardship. Prior conceptual designs envisioned subdividing into multiple 10+ acre lots, while others may see it as the perfect site for a legacy estate retreat. Though it carries an Asheville mailing address, the land lies outside city limits, subject only to Buncombe County and Reynolds Fire Dept taxes, not city taxes. Access is via a 30’ right-of-way on White Oak Gap Road (private), with potential additional easements from Smokey Road (private) per prior surveys. Whether you imagine a private mountain sanctuary, a multi-home family compound, or a carefully planned estate subdivision, this extraordinary acreage offers a versatile canvas in one of Western North Carolina’s most sought-after regions.
