LT1 Varsity Dr., Sylva, NC 28779

Tucked away in the heart of Jackson County, this 24.6-acre mountain sanctuary on Varsity Drive is a rare chance to create your own story in the Blue Ridge. From the moment you pass the gate and wind up the private road, you’ll feel the quiet embrace of nature. Sunlight filters through hardwoods, songbirds echo in the canopy, and old logging roads invite you to wander higher—each turn revealing fresh glimpses of layered ridgelines and rolling peaks. The land is gently varied, with cleared house sites already in place—perfect for a family retreat, a private estate, or even multiple homes tucked thoughtfully into the landscape. Imagine waking up to long-range mountain views, enjoying coffee on your porch while mist drifts through the valleys, or gathering loved ones for evenings under a sky ablaze with stars. Unrestricted and versatile, the property lends itself to bold visions: a hobby farm, a multi-generational getaway, or simply a peaceful hideaway minutes from Sylva’s dining, shops, and culture. Electricity, phone, and cable are already in place near the lower portion, while the ridge above promises breathtaking panoramas with selective clearing. Close to Highway 23/74 for convenience yet utterly private, this land strikes a balance that’s hard to find—connection when you want it, solitude when you crave it. Whether you’re a dreamer, a builder, or a visionary, Varsity Drive is your canvas
