Hello North Toe...... River! Over thirteen acres of land overlooking the N. Toe River. A golden open field greets you with a perfect home-site already cleared on this West facing property. Or perhaps you would prefer the ultimate privacy of building on the slope towards the river. A dramatic view into the Toe River Valley could be achieved all year round with some clearing. This land is UNRESTRICTED, so if you're not ready to build yet, bring your hiking gear and hoof it down the old logging trails, and maybe carve new paths of your own with a 4-wheeler or ATV! The forest is thick with rhododendron and mountain laurel with the robust sounds of the river echoing up the mountain. A short drive to Spruce Pine or Banner Elk and about an hour from skiing on Sugar Mountain.
