Looking for wooded mountain property in Western North Carolina? A turnkey solution with fantastic vistas and absolute peace and privacy? Or a piece of property with a variety of uses including, but not limited to:

• Green, Off-grid Geodesic Dome Home and Cabin for Family Homesteading
• Corporate Retreats
• Hunting Clubs
• Long-term Investment
• Tax Credits
• Conservation Easements
• Potential Sale to or Exchange with the United States Forest Service
• Development
• Selective Timber Harvesting or Logging

The property has access to the the Nantahala National Forest from this 159 acres with over 3,000 feet of frontage with the 55,000 acres of National Forest Game Lands. You can hunt, hike, ride horseback or enjoy off-road ATV & motocross vehicle trails a mile from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Housing on the property includes a fully appointed three bedroom, three bath, lofted green-friendly geodesic dome with fully functional propane, solar and wind power, with potential for hydroelectric generation & satellite internet access -- and a rustic cabin at the mountain's peak that overlooks the Great Smokies, Pisgah and the Nantahala National Forests -- all at the end of the Caney Fork community in Cullowhee, North Carolina.

The property sports three streams, a pond, functioning well, underground springs, active wildlife, a hardwood forest unlogged for several decades and more.

It should also be mentioned that a Letter of Intent to Purchase has been issued by the United States Forest Service to purchase within five years providing an excellent exit strategy for investment, if so desired. For investment purposes, the land is eminently suited for a conservation easement -- and is a viewshed property for the Blue Ridge and a watershed property for Fresh Water Trout Spawning Grounds in the valley below.

And if 159 acres isn't enough for you, the adjoining property of 143 acres with underground utilities is also [quietly] for sale through a local real estate broker, possibly with delayed purchasing through right of first refusal -- bringing the combined acreage to 302 acres, complete with gridded utilities. And we're open to owner financing, if desired.

It should be noted that if the property does not sell as a whole by the first week of May, 2009, we have chosen to auction the site in parcels.

Please take a few moments and peruse the site; we have a gallery, in-depth information about the property, an interactive location map, information on why we chose a dome, and more. We guarantee you'll want to know more. And please feel free to contact us if you need any more information.
