UNRESTRICTED land with frontage on Glade Creek, a stocked trout stream! According to the new survey, the property has 47.52' of frontage on Glade Creek and abundant paved road frontage. The property corners are well marked and it's an easy hike to the top on the logging road going into the property. Even in lush summer growth you can readily identify several building/camp sites & it would be great to build a trail to the creek frontage on Lynn Lane, the deer have a good path already started! The property is has a good border of trees offering privacy and open land offering fabulous views of where the Blue Ridge Parkway runs along Bullhead Mountain. This property is just minutes from the town of Sparta and the Blue Ridge Parkway. You need to see this one soon. It would be a great campsite, or a fabulous place to build your mountain get-a-way in cool mountains of Alleghany County!
