In the premier gated community of The Headwaters at Banner Elk, a "gently sloping" doble mountain lot is a highly sought-after feature. Unlike many steep mountain parcels that require complex, expensive foundation work, this lot offer a "gentle grade" that simplifies the building process while maintaining the quintessential mountain feel with stunning views. Expect a mix of mature hardwoods (maple, oak, birch) and native flora like rhododendrons. The gentle terrain makes the entire acreage more "usable," allowing for walking paths, fire pits, or gardens on your own land. A 6,000 sq. ft. mountaintop clubhouse with a fitness center, 14-seat movie theater, and gourmet kitchen are one of the many amenities you'll enjoy. There are miles of hiking trails ,dog parks, stocked lakes, tennis & pickleball courts for your enjoyment as well.
