Sapphire, NC Subdivisions & Condo Buildings

Sapphire, NC offers 28 subdivisions and condo buildings tucked into the mountains along the Toxaway/Cashiers corridor, ranging from golf-course communities to wooded acreage tracts. The largest and most active by listing count is Burlingame, a golf community offering condos, single-family homes, townhouses and land, and it remains the benchmark for scale and variety in this market. Holly Forest and Bear Wallow Springs round out the most active communities, with a mix of homesites and finished homes changing hands. There's no dedicated 55+ active adult section here — Sapphire's communities are geared toward second-home buyers and full-time mountain residents rather than age-restricted living. The inventory splits between long-established neighborhoods like Sapphire Valley, Sapphire Village and Lake Toxaway Estates, where turnover is mostly resale, and communities such as Bear Wallow Springs that still carry buildable land and occasional new construction. Smaller enclaves like Whisper Lake, Hilltop and The Preserve at Rock Creek add options for buyers seeking a quieter footprint or a vacant lot to build on. Overall, this is a market that serves mountain retreat buyers and land investors more than primary-residence shoppers, spanning modest cabin lots up through high-end custom estates.
