Unlocking true mountain value requires looking past previous listing history. This property offers an intentional financial entry point designed to offset site development costs. A major strategic advantage of this parcel is its subdividable potential per POA covenants! The land offers the buyer post-closing flexibility to split the property into separate 5 acre and 10 acre tracts. This option allows an owner to build a primary residence on the upper section while holding or liquidating the remaining acreage to offset development capital. The topography features a natural build bench near the upper northwest ridge off the cul-de-sac around the 1,600 foot elevation mark, ideal for capturing long range views while controlling site prep expense. The steady slope moving down to the 1,400 foot level along the private stream provides natural gravity fed drainage, establishing a straightforward layout for traditional septic placement. To subdivide Lot 46 (15.61 acres) into a 5+ acre upper parcel and a 10+ acre lower parcel based strictly on its 20-foot elevation profile and boundary layout, execute the following technical plan: The Upper 5.1+ Acre Parcel (The Ridge Bench): Draw the new boundary line horizontally across the northern section of the parcel, roughly following the 1,540-foot contour line. This captures the highest elevation area (1,600 feet down to 1,540 feet) immediately adjacent to the South View Court cul-de-sac. It includes the widest contour line spacing, preserving the primary natural build bench for low-grade foundation construction and preserving long-range mountain views. The Lower 10.5+ Acre Parcel (The Stream Corridor): The remaining acreage spans from the 1,540-foot contour line down to the 1,400-foot line at the eastern/southeastern boundary. This tract contains the private stream corridor and dense woodland, creating a secluded estate site. Buyer to verify with support from a survey. Short-term rentals are allowed, making this property ideal for a private mountain home, vacation retreat, or income-producing cabin. Located in a gated community 5 minutes from I-40 and under 30 minutes to Lake James, this property combines seclusion with actionable logistics. Complete Property Owners Association covenants and contour maps available upon request and included in attachments.
