We are proud to offer beautiful property with long-range mountain views. Our most common request is someone looking for a log cabin high up in the mountains all by itself on a couple acres. Sounds like a Walton's Mountain sort of picture. The issue is that if we could find such a piece, and it's sitting on a couple acres, what's around the property? More property owned by someone else, of which there is no control. After you pass by those trailer parks for a couple years, you won't see them any more? We offer a quiet, rural change of pace, with a little security mixed in.

Lot 80 in Clearwater Creek is one of the best views we offer. The 1.51 acre parcel has a perfectly level building site, or choose to move your home 40 feet closer to the layered mountain view and build with a walk-out basement foundation. Located on a small paved road that ends with a cul-de-sac, the lot has a slight grade down toward the view, keeping vegetation below, and your home high and dry. Only one other parcel next door for a potential neighbor, the other parcels nearby offer distant homesites. This is the mountain view you've been waiting for. $99,900.

Lot 79 in Hearthstone Ridge has a panoramic view of the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains. Sitting in front of the view is a piece of American history, a small family cemetery with tombstones dating back to the late eighteenth century. This unusual property is gently sloped, promoting easy home construction with or without a basement foundation. The land of our featured listing is moderately wooded with a couple of picturesque old oak trees which could accentuate a beautifully landscaped setting if one were so inclined. Rest your eyes on the same mountain views the settlers enjoyed for only $59,900.

Lot 155 in Hearthstone Ridge is one of the best bang-for-the-buck parcels around. The photo of the mountains (left) does not come close to doing the actual view justice, but hopefully you can see the potential. The 1.58 acres sits high above the road, with a nearly level homesite offering possibilities of both a nice front and back yard if you want. There's an easy option for basement construction as well, since the parcel has a beautiful rolling lay. One of it's key features is the home would be well away from any neighbors. It's only $39,900.

Lot 158 sits at the end of a road and features great views, coupled with privacy. The gentle slope up from the cul-de-sac is easy to walk on, and supports several foundation options (basement, half-basement, or crawlspace). It's location within Hearthstone Ridge is convenient to the west entrance, so it's quick and easy to get to town, and the 1.86 acres are moderately treed with mostly hardwoods. One of our favorites, and well-priced at $49,900!

Lot 113 offers great panoramic views of the surrounding Blue Ridge mountains, here in western North Carolina. Located in Hearthstone Ridge, this sloped land is gentle enough to sustain a garden (although the deer would make a salad out of it). The land is only moderately wooded, especially along the lowest areas, allowing an unimpeded view. Only $69,900.

A word about mountain view property. Basically there are three kinds of mountain views. The first is when you are on the very top of the mountain and see layers and layers, for miles and miles. It takes a bit of navigating (and time) to get to the top, but the views are worth it for many. Speaking of worth, you'll pay quite a pretty penny for this type of property. Frequently just the parcel of land will be in the hundreds of thousands, and sometimes quite a bit more.

The second kind of mountain view is when you are up, but not on top. Your mountain view property is where you stare at the face of the one mountain in front of you. This is by far the most common when buying in higher mountain towns like Boone, Black Mountain, Spruce Pine, Waynesville, or the like.

The third mountain view is the most practical, if not the most dramatic. Layers of mountains with panoramic vistas from the upper foothills. Easy access, usable land, fair pricing, great views, minutes to the mountains, minutes to town. If you gotta be on top of it all, you'll have to move on to another website. If you'd rather have more bang for your buck, have we got a deal for you!

When it's all said and done, your experience of what you see with your own eyes is what counts. Come and take a look at our real estate offerings and choose from several beautiful mountain view properties.
