A rare opportunity to build along one of the High Country’s most scenic corridors. This 1.19± acre wooded homesite on Shulls Mill Road offers a beautiful blend of privacy, natural character, and premier location between Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk. The property sits beside the celebrated restaurant, The Gamekeeper, and backs up to the protected lands of Moses H. Cone Memorial Park, placing miles of trails, forests, and Blue Ridge scenery right outside your door. The homesite has already been rough graded and prepared for construction, making it easy to begin building your mountain retreat. Both sewer and electric are available at the street, simplifying the building process while making it easier to preserve the natural character of the land. The owner has already paid to have the electrical conduit bored under the street, and it is stubbed up, ready for connection to the homesite. The property features mountain and forest views, mature hardwoods, and striking natural rock outcroppings that give the homesite a timeless Blue Ridge feel. Just below the build site, a mountain stream flows through the neighboring Gamekeeper property, adding to the peaceful setting and mountain ambiance. Shulls Mill Road is widely known for its beauty and proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway, offering easy access to hiking, cycling, and some of the most scenic drives in North Carolina. Year-round dining, shopping, and entertainment are just minutes away. Whether you're planning a luxury mountain home, 2nd home, or income-producing short-term rental, this property offers the ideal combination of build readiness, location, and natural beauty. Opportunities to build in this stretch of Shulls Mill Road—especially adjacent to protected parkland—are increasingly rare. Walk the property and experience one of the High Country’s most special settings for yourself.
Rare opportunity to own this 1.19 acre tract of land with direct access to Shulls Mill Road. This Partial of land is conveniently located next door to The GameKeeper restaurant and backs up to Moses H Cone Memorial Park. All showings must be set up on showing time.
