About this home

Nestled at the end of a long shared drive, at the western corner of Walnut Cove, near Pisgah National Forest is a little slice of heaven known as 74 Smokey Ridge Trail. Offering the perfect build site for a mountain cottage or retreat you will feel as if the forest belongs to you alone. Despite its privacy you are still only a few minutes to the nearest Walnut Cove gate. Priced aggressively, this is one of the best values in Walnut Cove. -
