Avoid the grueling 12 to 24-month multi-agency permitting process, the heavy lifting, some site work, engineering, and structural framing are already complete. Situated on 2.89 unrestricted, gently rolling acres just 15 minutes from downtown Boone, this property delivers a mountain canvas that is primed for an investor, builder, flipper, or ambitious homeowner ready to select their own finishes and reap immediate equity. The primary structure is framed as a modern 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom architectural cabin designed to capture its surroundings. Tall ceilings in the living room and 2 large sliding glass door openings, complete with high-altitude transom windows, flood the interior with natural light and frame breathtaking, mountain views of the green ridges. Step out onto the expansive deck frame, a space destined for morning coffee overlooking the valley or crisp autumn evenings under the stars. What truly elevates this offering into a generational investment opportunity is its unique, pre-approved infrastructure.

Opportunities that combine acreage, proximity to Boone, views, and fully approved multi-dwelling infrastructure are virtually nonexistent in today's market. Skip the red tape and step straight into the fun part of mountain construction. Schedule your tour today and see exactly where the high country hills meet limitless potential.
