Breath-taking, Unrestricted Mountain Acreage in the NC High Country! Close to Boone & West Jefferson, NC & Mountain City, TN; both the Watauga & New Rivers, as well as numerous bold creeks are nearby; Grandfather Mtn, Watauga Lake, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, Ski Beech, App Ski Mtn, & Sugar Mtn are all conveniently-close to this property! 5 full acres - roughly-rectangular with approximately 350 feet of frontage on Baldwin Gap Road, and over 800 feet deep as it works its way upward from the road to the ridgetop at the rear/peak pf the tract - is mostly-wooded with Southern Exposure & Mountain Views, plus added potential to stretch those views much wider & longer than what's currently visible! There's a cleared & graded trail (could be driven, although currently more-suited for an ATV, until further clearing can be done) which works its way gently uphill as it spans the width of the tract (maybe 50 feet above Baldwin Gap Rd); the path switches back to the right as it gets close to the side property line (there is a nearly-level area, mostly cleared of trees, near this switchback which was originally intended for a large workshop/barn), and begins to work its way back into the heart of-and higher up into-the property, toward another identified build site, originally intended to be the site for a larger cabin. The view potential from this second build site is spectacular, and stretches in multiple directions! Although the path doesn't continue beyond this second, upper potential build site, the property continues above and behind this site up to the ridgetop, where it meets two other tracts - all of which share its peak! A deeded easement for right-of-way allows the new owner to use the driveway on the adjacent property (266 Baldwin Gap Rd), which runs gently uphill for approximately 80 yards, where it meets a cleared & level entrance to the tract itself. From there, you begin to see the numerous possibilities that this land offers! However as you continue walking into the property on the cleared path, gently working its way upward, passing numerous fantastic potential build sites along the way... the land really begins to speak of its untapped potential! Quiet & peaceful country mountain living, without the stress of prohibitive rules or restrictions; yet surrounded by numerous wonderful neighboring families with high pride of ownership who have created exceptional multi-acre homesteads - most of whom live here year-round. Coupled with the convenience of surrounding towns (only 20 miles to Boone & West Jefferson; less than 10 miles to Mtn City), what more could one ask for when looking for that slice of High Country heaven?! ***Current owner is a licensed Realtor***
