Wonderful home site with a great building area just above Mill Creek. Walk to everything that Highlands has to offer with shopping, dining, theater, swimming, and parks just a few minutes away. Three-bedroom septic permit already in place. There is a view easement for the home on the right below that home, but this is also where the septic will be installed. Great trees on the lot will create a canopy of shade in the summer. Children will love playing in the creek hunting crawfish or salamanders. On the left side of the property lies the greenway trail, which will provide a buffer for privacy.
