Homes for Sale in Black Mountain
2726 Lower Flat Creek Road $975,000 Subdivision:  | Back to Property List | ||||||||
| Incredible 123+ acre parcel at the end of Lower Flat Creek between Black Mountain and Chimney Rock! This amazing private property backs up to ridgelines and offers complete seclusion and recreation paradise! The lower portion of the property fronts Flat Creek, a beautiful mountain stream with large boulders and clear waters. Property access is via a gravel road on the left side of the creek. After crossing a small tributary, there is a large open field that would be a great build site for a riverfront home (or possibly multiple homes). Past the field is a gravel road that leads up to flat building site at higher elevation, with conduit already in place to run electricity. Behind the build site is a trail that leads to a creekfront shelter. This creek flows into Flat Creek and is much rockier after Helene. However, none of this property is in the flood plain. Across the creek, there is an old road bed (possibly an old logging road) that leads to the top of the property. If a bridge were built over this creek, more homesites would be accessible and the views would be panoramic. This once-in-a-lifetime property offers a myriad of recreational possibilities, including hunting and trail building for hiking, mountain biking, ATV or dirt bikes, and equestrian use. With phenomenal eastern and southern exposure, a completely off-the-grid retreat would be an ideal use. The neighboring property - 2716 Lower Flat Creek Road (Buncombe County PIN: 0625-06-0575-00000) is also on the market. It has 52+ acres and multiple waterfalls; see MLS 4286576. Combining both of these properties would create a beautiful estate unlike any other in Western North Carolina! | Basic Information
