PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

​

Land Adjoining National Forest Service Property!

​

Want convenience to Blowing Rock, yet still own land in a rural mountain area? Have your dreamed of owning land adjoining National Forest Service property? Then you’re in luck – this property is just minutes from Main Street in Blowing Rock and adjoins a National Forest Service property for about ¼ mile in the Globe community.

​

There’s plenty of state road frontage for easy access, and the Johns River is just across the road. At least three streams run through this property, and there are several ridges with a variety of possible homesites.

 

If you prefer a quiet location, yet still want access to restaurants, antique stores, and Kilwin’s incredible ice cream, nearby Blowing Rock and Boone are almost at your doorstep. For the winter enthusiast, don’t forget Appalachian Ski Mountain, Ski Sugar, and also Beech Mountain Ski Resort – all of which are only a short distance away.

​

Elevations on this land adjoining National Forest Service range from 1,300’ – 2,000’ and provide a mild 4-seasons combination of cooler summers, without the bitter cold of nearby winter elevations over 3,000’. Summer porch mornings in July generally run around 60°-65° – a nice break from the lower elevations of Charlotte, Winston-Salem, and Raleigh.

​

Enjoy mountain trout fishing? Wilson Creek, a nationally designated “Wild & Scenic River” is barely 30 minutes away, and provides outdoor adventures the family won’t forget. It includes 49,000 acres of rugged wilderness. The headwaters of Wilson Creek rush through the Blue Ridge Mountains into a 200-foot deep gorge of granite bedrock providing a challenging run for adventurous kayakers. Miles of ATV and hiking trails cover this large outdoor venue. It ffers many of the most wanted features in the Boone & Blowing Rock area – without the high asking prices.
