A remarkable amount of the groundwork is already in place. This 2-acre homesite in the gated High Hickory community comes with an unusually comprehensive package of planning and pre-construction work, including a professional topographic survey, site planning for a proposed home, a 3-bedroom septic authorization with detailed system design, and private well permitting.

Set in a wooded landscape shaped by a mountain creek running through the property, the homesite offers privacy, natural beauty, and a genuine sense of retreat. High Hickory is a low-impact mountain community shaped around conservation, with walking trails, community gardens, and shared gathering spaces, all within easy reach of Asheville and Black Mountain. Bring your architect, your builder, and your own point of view to a homesite where the setting has already done much of the work.
