4.23 scenic acres at the top of the John T subdivision with long range, layered 360 degree views. Property extends to both sides of the ridgetop for a secluded, near-level home site. This large flat area should have no trouble perking. The second ridge is shared with the top of Farthing farm, with views towards Rich Mountain. Great for primary residence with guest house. Long- and short-term rentals permitted. Shared well available. Loop driveway is already graded from John T to potential home sites. John T is an excellent, straight gravel drive through a nice neighborhood. The property is less than a quarter mile from HWY 321, giving easy access with minimal road sounds. No formal road maintenance agreement or HOA fees, owners share pro rata in maintenance. No mobile homes, and the lot cannot currently be subdivided. Minutes to the Watauga River, Cove Creek Store, and historic Old Cove Creek School with basketball, tennis, and playground. 10 minutes to Boone, or to the gorgeous Valle Crucis riverside park and historic Mast General Store. 20 minutes to Watauga Lake public access, 30 minutes to Beech Mtn, Sugar Mtn, and App Ski Mtn.
