This 3.5-acre cul-de-sac lot offers stunning views in a serene, wooded, gated community with two spring-fed lakes. The town of Tryon is famous for its small-town charm, rich history, and extraordinary natural beauty—surrounded by mountain views, lush forests, and nature preserves, with a postcard-perfect downtown and a thriving world-class equestrian culture. Melrose Mountain is the area’s only gated neighborhood with natural spring lakes, and these pristine fishing and swimming lakes are a major draw for buyers, some of whom acquire land just for the privilege of enjoying the lakes. The homes on Melrose Mountain are truly spectacular, with many offering views all the way to the Smoky Mountains. With few available sites left, Tryon’s reputation as a well-kept secret retreat for over 100 years has made new development rare. Now, with remote work becoming more common, Melrose Mountain has emerged as an ideal year-round place to live. The community is quiet, secluded, and picturesque, offering a true mountain retreat feel—yet it’s only 10 minutes to the grocery store and all the conveniences of town. It's hard to fully capture the beauty and rarity of this opportunity, so the best way to experience it is to come see it for yourself. Please contact the agent for access to this gated community.
