Approximately 1,000 feet above Boone with a southern view of downtown Boone and Appalachian State University. The lot is located in The Top of Boone Overlook/Boone Overlook subdivision. You are sitting on the top of the world with amazing views in every direction. With binoculars, you can watch the ASU football games "live." The large rectangular .71-acre lot is flat and ready to build. A two-story home would allow you to see the ski slopes of Sugar and Beech Mountains. On a clear night, you may see the lights of Charlotte. This is a very secluded setting on a dead-end road that runs totally along the ridgeline. Only one other home on this southern ridge, and an approved septic easement is in place. You can see the Boone town lights at night and watch the sun and moon rise and set from your view decks. This property is approximately 10 minutes to Boone. Additional area attractions include the popular resort town of Blowing Rock, the Blue Ridge Parkway (camping, hiking and fishing), Tweetsie Railroad, Beech Mountain (skiing and golf) and Sugar Mountain (skiing and golf). Great view property in a great area!
