Escape to the North Carolina High Country to one of the newest communities right outside of Boone. Located less than 10 minutes to downtown Boone, 20 minutes to Blowing Rock, 20 minutes to the New River, and 30 minutes to Sugar Mtn the location cannot be beat. This gently sloping lot, with access from the top, offers long-range layered views, underground utilities, high-speed internet, and a gated entrance (currently being installed). The topography offers the ability to build a home with a walk-out basement with great views as well. There's a 1200 sq. ft. minimum for building, and long and short-term rentals are allowed. Enjoy nearby hiking at Elk Knob State Park, kayaking and fishing on the South Fork of the New River, and mountain biking at Rocky Knob mountain bike park. 3 Boone based craft breweries are nearby along with a plethora of local restaurants. The Poplar Forest community is located 2 hours from Charlotte, 3 hours from Raleigh, and 5 hours from Wilmington.
