Discover mountain living at its finest with this 17.58-acre tract perched at 4,200 ft in the Alarka area of Swain County. This property is a rare find, offering unmatched privacy, fresh mountain air, and year-round long-range views. Unique natural features include dramatic rock cliffs with natural springs flowing from them, adding beauty and character to the land. A system of established roadways with culverts is already in place, still diverting spring and storm water. You'll also find a gated entry for added security and a large home pad—big enough for a 3,000+ sq ft home or a smaller residence with yard space. The land is heavily wooded with rolling and steeper terrain, creating the perfect backdrop for a mountain retreat, family estate, or small development. With no deed restrictions and adjoining U. S. Forest Service land, the possibilities are endless—whether you dream of a private getaway, a multi-home sanctuary, or investment potential. Utilities are available with water access and septic options, plus an easement road provides access. Just a short drive to Bryson City, you'll have shopping, dining, the Smoky Mountains, and outdoor adventure at your doorstep.
