This 6.97 acre tract in the mountains of Western North Carolina runs to the edge of the New River. Unrestricted, it is ready for you to create your new home surrounded by Appalachian forest, both deciduous and evergreen. Rhododendrons provide lovely May through July blossoms, and wildflowers through the spring, summer, and Fall. The tract starts with an easy turn off Mill Creek Road, gently sloping down to the bottom boundary of the property on the New River where you will have your own access to the river for fishing, swimming, wading, canoeing, kayaking. Several ‘mountain flat’ homesites are available to choose from. With clearing you’ll have a view of a bend of the New River. A spring creates a miniature waterfall over a boulder near the bottom. If desired, that corner of the property could possibly become a small pond. The current owners recently graveled the driveway, also creating a turn around area. They added a picnic table and grill to enjoy picnics and camping on the property. Underbrush has been cleared in that area. The property is minutes from historic Todd and about a 20 minute drive to either Boone or West Jefferson. Todd Island Park is about 3 minutes away. Retreat to this peaceful spot as a getaway from the busy world. Or, use it as a springboard for adventures with the many amenities our High Country offers – fine dining, shopping, outdoor sports, cultural events, and festivals.
