Asheville: Realestate for the Perfect Mountain Retreat


Laurel Mountain Preserve, near Black Mountain, NC, is situated close to I-40 about 20 minutes east of Asheville. With only 29 lots for sale, proximity to Asheville, and controlled land development, these are among the most desirable Western North Carolina real estate listings anywhere. This is a perfect opportunity to enjoy the seclusion and privacy of days gone by, yet be close to the many benefits of civilization.

Asheville realestate values (as with much of the land for sale in Black Mountain and North Carolina) have been on the rise. As Florida becomes more crowded and more expensive, and the weather there becomes more oppressive, North Carolina mountain properties become increasingly more desirable.

With fewer lots for sale in Asheville, the surrounding communities are growing. Asheville realestate agencies are expanding, branching out, and helping to drive the Western North Carolina real estate boom. Are those spectacular mountain vistas and peaceful mountain getaways about to become over-developed? Not where Laurel Mountain Preserve is concerned - read on to learn why.

Laurel Mountain Preserve offers an excellent solution in luxury real estate. This new development encompasses 430 acres of the most beautiful land for sale in North Carolina. To keep the beauty of nature, the developers have arranged for 169 acres—almost half the property—to be set aside as a conservation area. It can't be built up!

With only 29 lots for sale, and with Asheville being only twenty minutes away, this Asheville realestate project is unique. You'll enjoy the peace and quiet you've been seeking, yet be near to the quaint town of Black Mountain and to the highly-popular city of Asheville. You can build that mountain dream home, knowing that when the property development is complete—there won't be any more land development.

Western North Carolina Real Estate Growth Opportunity


When the developers purchased this unspoiled land, they felt that it shouldn't go the way of so many Western North Carolina subdivisions. People want to preserve Nature's beauty, live in harmony with the environment, and enjoy a shared environment with the flora and fauna.

They contacted Equinox Environmental, a consulting agency in Asheville. Realestate projects don't have to always be an environmental conflict. Instead, with insight and ingenuity, we can create exquisite homes while maintaining the surrounding natural beauty.

How? By privatizing the land and turning it into a preserve. The Carolina Mountain Land Conservancy of Hendersonville, NC, now owns a perpetual easement to the Preserve. The agency, unaffiliated with Western North Carolina real estate agencies, is charged with assisting the Laurel Mountain Homeowner's Association (HOA) in maintaining the Preserve.

10-acre Mountain Lots for Sale: Asheville


The 10-acre lots, as well as the six 1.5- to 2.5-acre cottage lots, are easy to build, which isn't always true of Western North Carolina real estate. Property owners become members of the homeowners' association, which will own the deed to the Preserve. The project is designed to provide the feeling of old-growth wilderness, while at the same time offering the finest luxury real estate in the country.

Asheville realestate, like most Western North Carolina land for sale, is one of those best-kept secrets that you are very lucky to have found. This is the time to get into the market and not let the "urban sprawl" take over. Laurel Mountain Preserve will always remain unspoiled. It's truly a singular expression of the magic of Nature, in harmony with the comfort of home.
