Property Description
Septic and well permits in place. Ready to start your home building project. Tucked within the quiet forest of Gateway Mountain, this 1.84-acre parcel with a spectacular pond and Mountain Views is a story book setting. Sheltered by tall hardwoods and draped in mountain laurel, rhododendron, and fern, this homesite offers a rare combination of privacy, easy build potential, and stunning pond frontage.
The gentle slope provides flexibility for building, whether your dream is a cozy timber cabin or a modern mountain escape with glass walls opening to the view. There's space to breathe, garden, and grow — all surrounded by the natural rhythms of the Western North Carolina mountains.
Located in the gated community of Gateway Mountain, residents enjoy miles of walking trails, private lakes, creeks, and picnic areas, all lovingly maintained to preserve the land's wild beauty. This is not a crowded subdivision — it's a true nature sanctuary, where each property is spacious, wooded, and alive with mountain character.
And though you'll feel far away from everything, the essentials are close at hand. The vibrant small town of Old Fort is just down the mountain, and Asheville, Black Mountain, and Marion are an easy drive away — offering art, music, local markets, and restaurants that celebrate mountain living. Here, you can disappear into the woods without disconnecting from the world entirely.
HOA fees cover road maintenance, the security gate, and the preservation of this extraordinary mountain environment.
Don't wait long, someone is going to fall in love with this place — it might as well be you.
