About This Lot

Experience breathtaking long-range views from this gently rolling 7.32-acre homesite, perched at over 4,000 feet elevation in the sought-after Falcon Ridge community of Sapphire, North Carolina. Offering layered mountain vistas that stretch into South Carolina, this lot provides the perfect setting for a dream mountain retreat. Enjoy the peace and privacy of a location set back from Tower Road, with easy paved access and a partially cleared building site ready for a personalized vision. A waterfall flows through the lower portion of the property, ready for trails to be established to access and enjoy this beautiful natural feature.
This exceptional homesite includes a current four-bedroom septic permit and a recent survey on file. Falcon Ridge requires a minimum home size of 2,400 square feet, ensuring a neighborhood of quality-built mountain homes. Amenities include access to a beautiful community area featuring a pavilion and bonfire ring — ideal for gathering with friends, family, and neighbors.
Opportunity exists for an outdoor lifestyle, as the property is just minutes from Panthertown Valley, a 6,300-acre wilderness area known for its scenic hiking trails and stunning waterfalls. Ownership also includes access to Sapphire Valley Resort amenities, including heated pools, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, a nine-hole golf course, and Fairfield Lake for swimming and boating. Winter fun abounds with skiing, snow tubing, and snowboarding. This homesite truly offers the best of mountain living — privacy, views, nature, and resort-style recreation all in one stunning location.
