Sunalei Forest Estate #6 presents 10.48 high-elevation acres within one of the High Country’s most intentionally preserved and low-density mountain communities. Rising to approximately 4,000 feet in elevation, this homesite features a gentle, highly usable topography ideally suited for a primary residence with walk-out potential and expansive outdoor living spaces. The property offers ridgeline and nature-oriented views, complemented by mature forest canopy and a peaceful mountain setting. A stream flows through the property, adding natural character, movement, and ecological richness to the landscape. Estate #6 offers exceptional equestrian estate potential or the opportunity to create a secluded mountain retreat across fully usable acreage with tremendous privacy. Each Sunalei Forest homesite permits a primary residence of at least 3,000 heated square feet along with a secondary guest home, allowing for estate-style living or multigenerational flexibility. Horses are permitted, reinforcing the large-tract character and lifestyle flexibility that define this release. Sunalei is thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the natural contours of the Blue Ridge Mountains, drawing inspiration from the classic Great Camps while preserving the landscape’s untamed beauty. When complete, the community will consist of fewer than 100 homesites across its expansive mountain setting, a density profile that would be extremely difficult to recreate in today’s regulatory environment. Approximately 60 acres at the summit are owned by the Sunalei Property Owners Association, and the community is surrounded by permanently protected lands including extensive conservation acreage and Elk Knob State Park, creating a rare sanctuary of preserved views, privacy, and natural integrity. Sunalei Forest represents the final high-elevation release within the community — a curated collection of estate-sized homesites, most exceeding 10 acres, selected for privacy, view corridors, and long-term preservation. Estate #6 offers the rare combination of gentle topography, usable acreage, water feature, and elevation within a permanently protected mountain environment where space, quiet, and authenticity define ownership.
