About Homes for Sale in Cedar Mountain, NC

Cedar Mountain sits high in the corner where North Carolina brushes up against South Carolina, and the drive alone tells you plenty. You climb through hardwoods and rhododendron, windows down. The air cools off the higher you go. Quiet country. People wave from their porches here, and they mean it.

Things move slower in this pocket of Transylvania County. Folks come for elbow room, for waterfalls and trails a few minutes from the door, and for the quick run into Brevard when they need a restaurant or groceries. And you won't find tidy rows of subdivisions. Expect cabins, mountain retreats, and wooded acreage instead.


Why Buy Homes for Sale in Cedar Mountain, NC?

Buy here if you want land, trees, and real privacy without going full hermit. Summers stay cool, the fall color turns the ridgelines orange and red, and forest sits right at your doorstep, with Brevard and Greenville both close enough. It pulls in second-home buyers and full-timers both. Want a slower, greener life? Cedar Mountain delivers.

You've been waiting for more than 3 years to find this property! And it's so rare you won't see it again anytime soon! Solomon Jones Road, Cedar Mountain Open, rolling pasture with a cold-water trout stream running the full width; you own both sides, and there are no restrictions in sight. This is 7.12 acres in Cedar Mountain that’s already cleared, already green, and ready for whatever you’ve been planning. The land is made up of three contiguous deeded parcels from the same plat, offered together as one tract. Unrestricted use means the decisions are yours. Bring the horses and set the barn and paddocks where the ground suits them. Put in the garden, the orchard, the chickens. Build the home exactly where you’d want to sit and take in the view, because the view here is the kind that stops people mid-sentence. Walker Creek runs along the full width, a clear, cold mountain stream that holds trout. It’s not a big river, and it doesn’t need to be. It’s year-round water on your own land. While the top is slightly wooded, there’s no forest to clear and no guesswork about what you’ve got. The pasture is open and gently rolling, with easy access right off Solomon Jones Road. You can see the whole property from the moment you pull in. Cedar Mountain acreage like this, open and unrestricted with live water, rarely comes to market. Brevard, DuPont State Recreational Forest, Pretty Place, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are all an easy drive, and Greenville, South Carolina, is within reach for the day. Room to ride. Room to grow. Room to breathe. Come walk it.
