Maybe get out the checklist you’ve been using for land searches for your new home. Ready? Check these off… City water, paved roads, reasonable HOA dues, no city taxes, no major road noise, septic approved, flat enough you don’t have to grow out your toenails to walk up, cool elevation, bigger than ¼ acre, sunny side of the mountain and road and driveway access not up the shadow of the mountain, convenient to town, shopping and services. How many did we check off? Nestled near the top of Eagles Nest Mountain at right at 4,800 feet this ready to build home site offers cool summer living and so many pluses. You’ve read the description of other building lots that say something like “gently sloped and easy to build on” and then you get there and you get vertigo looking down. Not this one. It is what is affectionately referred to as “mountain flat”. It also has access from either Eagle View Circle or Octagon Place for a myriad of house, garage and driveway options. It is located in Waynesville ETJ and has access to city water but does not pay city taxes. A 4 bedroom septic system permit is currently in the works. A fresh survey has been done and property corners are marked. The drive up from Waynesville past Laurel Ridge Country club and up Eagles Nest Mountain is scenic and sunny. City maintained roads get you almost to the top where well maintained paved private roads lead you the rest of the way. There may be an opportunity for filtered winter views depending on the design of the home. This home site is broker owned. I am happy to meet you there to show you property lines and setbacks. Please refer to the attached documentation for building guidelines, STR stipulations and HOA information.
