Description
Set along the quiet stretch of Bostic Sunshine Highway, this extraordinary 393.40-acre assemblage unfolds as one of Western North Carolina’s most compelling large-scale land offerings. Comprising seven contiguous parcels, the property presents a rare opportunity to shape a legacy estate, private retreat, or thoughtfully envisioned development in a region defined by natural beauty and enduring appeal. Just minutes from Forest City, the location offers a unique balance of seclusion and accessibility—where peaceful countryside living meets proximity to recreation, amenities, and regional connectivity. This positioning enhances both lifestyle potential and long-term investment value. The land itself is defined by gentle to rolling topography, creating a remarkably usable landscape that invites a wide range of possibilities. A network of established trails winds through the acreage, revealing a dynamic tapestry of natural features and providing effortless access across the property. The scale and terrain combine to offer both expansive openness and intimate pockets of privacy—an ideal canvas for visionary planning. Zoned OU, the property, allows for a diverse array of uses, from a refined residential community or equestrian enclave to an agricultural estate or mixed-use concept designed to harmonize with the surrounding environment. Its size supports a sense of place rarely found, where design, land stewardship, and long-term vision can come together to create something truly enduring. Frontage along a state-maintained road ensures ease of access while preserving the property’s quiet, rural character. Infrastructure potential is supported by this accessibility, offering a practical foundation for future development while maintaining the integrity of the landscape. Further enhancing its appeal, a preliminary plat design for 74 lots has been thoughtfully prepared by the seller, providing a valuable framework for those seeking to move forward with development. This initial vision offers insight into the property’s potential while allowing the flexibility to refine, reimagine, or expand upon the concept. Opportunities of this scale and versatility are increasingly rare. Whether pursued as a private legacy holding, a multi-generational retreat, or a signature development, this remarkable tract offers the chance to create something both timeless and distinctive in the heart of Western North Carolina.
