LOT 96 Eagles Nest Trail

Some properties offer a place to build. Others offer the opportunity to create a legacy. This remarkable 4.4-acre estate homesite within The Lodges at Eagles Nest belongs to the latter. Perched at approximately 4,500 feet in elevation, this exceptional property offers the cooler temperatures, privacy, and breathtaking mountain setting that have made North Carolina's High Country one of the Southeast's premier luxury destinations. Combining natural beauty with years of completed planning, engineering, excavation, and site preparation, this is a rare opportunity to begin building your custom mountain estate far sooner than would otherwise be possible. Unlike many mountain homesites, the infrastructure is already well underway. A professionally engineered private driveway extends approximately two-tenths of a mile into the property, complete with two DOT-standard bridges providing exceptional access to the future homesite. The primary building site has already been excavated, allowing the next owner the flexibility to design a custom residence while benefiting from years of completed preparation and significant infrastructure investment already in place. Surrounded by mature hardwoods, the property is enhanced by gently flowing mountain streams, natural waterfall features, private walking trails, and a beautiful balance of wooded seclusion and mountain views, creating an extraordinary setting for a luxury retreat or legacy family estate. Ideally positioned within The Lodges at Eagles Nest, residents enjoy access to an exceptional collection of amenities, including the North Pavilion, Sportsman's Lodge, Eagles Nest Winery, owners' fitness center, extensive hiking, mountain biking and ATV trail systems, sports courts, and year-round outdoor recreation. The community's newly paved rear entrance also provides convenient access to Beech Mountain Resort, while downtown Banner Elk, Sugar Mountain Resort, boutique shopping, dining, and local wineries are just minutes away. Additional improvements include a private water well already installed, with electrical service and fiber internet readily accessible nearby. A private septic system will be required. Very few homesites within The Lodges at Eagles Nest combine this level of privacy, acreage, completed infrastructure, natural water features, and immediate accessibility. Whether your vision is a luxury mountain retreat, seasonal escape, or a legacy estate to be enjoyed for generations, this exceptional property offers a head start that simply cannot be replicated without years of additional time, planning, and investment.
