Community: Banner Elk in Avery County
Discover an exceptional homesite in the desirable Summit section of Crooked Creek, positioned at the top of the development for added privacy and a peaceful mountain setting. Lot 45 offers approximately .92 acres with a flat entry point from the end of a cul-de-sac and a gently sloping landscape that lends itself well to building. As the property slopes gradually toward the lower portion of the lot, approved tree work may provide the opportunity to enhance a potential view. Enjoy the convenience of city water and sewer availability, eliminating the need for a private well and septic system, along with underground power already serving the community. Its location at the top of the development and near the end of the cul-de-sac helps minimize through traffic and creates a more private setting for your future mountain home. Crooked Creek also offers low HOA dues, with homes in the Summit section subject to an approximately 3,000-square-foot minimum home size. Short-term rentals are not permitted, helping Crooked Creek maintain the feel of a more established residential neighborhood. Crooked Creek is conveniently located near downtown Banner Elk, providing easy access to shopping, dining, Banner Elk Park, and the greenway. From this central High Country location, enjoy nearby golf, tennis, skiing, hiking, vineyards, equestrian activities, Grandfather Mountain State Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and many of the area's most popular attractions. Lot 45 combines a sizable, gently sloping homesite with municipal utilities and a convenient Banner Elk location—an excellent opportunity to build in one of Crooked Creek's premier sections.
