Don't miss the opportunity to own a place in Montreat! There are very few lots and houses being offered for sale in this beautiful small mountain town. Consider building exactly what you want on this .43 acre lot. Final site work should allow for a wonderful year round mountain view. There are at least a couple of houses on the same side of the road that may model the views, driveway construction, and privacy that can also be had from this lot. Just down the road is access to the walking trails that lead to Lake Susan at the center of the town. One trail is wooded and one trail is paved. Sleep to the soothing sound of nearby Flat Creek, which also provides wading and rock hopping. Enjoy a walk to Black Mountain on the paved sidewalk. This lot is at the end of a dead end road for highly reduced traffic and the rear and side property lines of this lot join thousands of acres of land that are protected from development by a conservation easement. No buildable lot on one side, or behind.
