7 White Birch Ct., Black Mountain, NC 28711

Tucked into a higher-elevation, remote pocket of Laurel Ridge, this private homesite puts you close to Black Mountain and Asheville while still feeling worlds away — just a short walk from your door into the wild landscapes of Western North Carolina. Think waterfalls, lonesome ridgelines, secluded peaks and valleys, and boulder-strewn ledges and ravines. If you're woods-wise, you're likely to spot nearly every species of wildlife native to the region. Design a home that belongs to its surroundings, in a community known for its warmth and togetherness. The lot adjoins and overlooks the 13,000-acre Burnette Reservoir, with views of Bee Tree Mountain visible from the connecting ridgelines as they trace their way toward Haw Creek. Downtown Asheville is just a short, scenic drive away via I-40/240. Among the original 190 lots the rest of that land remains protected as Laurel Ridge common area, conservation easement, or adjoining watershed. Perfect as a vacation rental, primary residence, or second home. Work remotely, or simply escape the city.
