This 47+ acre Blue Ridge mountain tract is the one of a kind of “how is this still so close to town?” property buyers hunt for and rarely find. You’ll get awe-inspiring long-range views, a gentle, rolling landscape, and multiple potential homesites whether you want to tuck into privacy or open up sightlines for big vistas.

This land has a story: it was once a working cattle farm, and while it’s naturally re-grown over time, the open pasture potential is still here ready to be reclaimed if you want a homestead setup, grazing, gardens, orchards, or simply more open views. The forest is young in growth, which is a plus for buyers who want to shape a property selective clearing, trail systems, view corridors, and future landscaping without battling massive mature timber.

Even better, a spring originates on the property, adding that hard-to-find “water source” magic that makes land feel alive and usable.
