Introducing Lot 23, a hidden gem nestled in the peaceful and serene gated community of Cross Creek Preserve. If you're seeking tranquility and breathtaking mountain views, this is the perfect opportunity for you. Situated within this coveted community, Lot 23 is thoughtfully shaped to take advantage of the rising elevation, allowing you to maximize the stunning, long-range mountain vistas. Imagine waking up each morning to the sight of majestic peaks and immersing yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds you. The lot already offers a roughed-in driveway leading to the proposed house location, saving you time and effort during the building process. Additionally, an expired septic evaluation indicates that the lot has the potential to accommodate a four-bedroom house, providing ample space for your dream residence. Cross Creek Preserve is a private community that embraces a harmonious blend of nature and recreation.
