Lots and Land in Laurel Mountain Preserve
Laurel Mountain Preserve is a gated mountain enclave above the Black Mountain and Highway 9 corridor, and its defining feature is space.
Laurel Mountain Preserve is a gated mountain enclave above the Black Mountain and Highway 9 corridor, and its defining feature is space. Most recorded sales center on wooded homesites of roughly five to twelve acres, while the broader development was originally marketed as a 23-lot preserve with paved roads, underground electric, driveway cuts, and common areas spread across a large mountain tract.
Community Highlights
Views and privacy shape the identity here. Listing remarks repeatedly call out panoramic and long-range mountain outlooks, including east-facing sunrise exposures and views toward Old Fort Valley, and several parcels are described with ridge-top or plateau homesites already identified. Streams show up regularly, one recent offering adds a waterfall, and native woods with mature trees and rhododendron reinforce the preserve setting. The recorded lot-size spread is wide, from about 2.4 acres to more than 235 acres, but the middle of the market sits closer to the large-estate scale than a conventional subdivision lot.
Pricing reflects that mix. Closed sales range from $69,000 to $900,000, with most individual homesite transactions landing in the mid-$100,000s and the highest sales tied to either existing cabins or very large assemblage tracts. Laurel Cottage Lane stands apart as the built pocket of the community, where mountain cabins on roughly 2.4-acre sites have sold from the mid-$300,000s into the low-$500,000s.
