VL Bat Cave Rd, Old Fort, NC 28762

About this home

Beautiful raw land in the Crooked Creek area of Old Fort, one of the most desirable areas in our region, just 10 minutes east of Black Mountain, 30 minutes to Asheville. Old Fort, already a destination for outdoor enthusiasts, with limited land available, now has two breweries, a ride house catering to mountain bikers, a good trails system with more to come. This property has been in the same family for generations. Topography is varied: rolling to steep, to gentle slope/level down by the creek which hits the land in a couple of places. There are two peaks for mountaintop living. This can be your singular private estate, or land to develop as you see fit. Want to build some rustic lodging or campsites for the outdoor enthusiasts? You can do that. There are two rights of way, both off Bat Cave Rd. Lovely farmland & long range mountain views from the mid/upper parts; wooded privacy everywhere. So many grand possibilities. Appointment required. Call Listing agent or your favorite Realtor.
