98 Hosta  Drive, Sylva
$50,000
4435675 MLS
Private 6.45-acre mountain homesite at the very end of the road in Cane Creek Ridge, about 4 miles from downtown Sylva. As the last lot, there is no through traffic, and the natural building spot sits right where the road ends, matching the gentler ground LiDAR mapping shows along the north side. An old logging road runs along the ridge, and an old trail leads down to a second flatter area mid-slope. The land is fully wooded and untouched; selective clearing around a home site can open seasonal mountain views. High point about 3,500 ft, east-southeast facing for morning sun. Jackson County has no zoning here; recorded covenants allow new site-built homes of 600 sq ft or more (no mobile homes). Road HOA about $500 a year. FEMA Zone X. Well, septic and a power extension will be needed. Nantahala National Forest is under a mile away. Plat, 3D terrain images and a full due diligence report are available.

26048653 MLS
This 1.4-acre wooded lot in the Savannah area of Sylva is a quiet place to build in the mountains without fighting the terrain. Unlike many mountain parcels, it has a gentle slope rather than a steep one, which should allow for a simpler, more cost-effective build with more manageable site prep and driveway work. Mature trees provide a natural buffer and real seclusion, whether you're planning a full-time residence, a second home, or a mountain retreat. Reasonable restrictions, including a 1,000 sq ft minimum home size, help protect the character of the area and your investment while leaving plenty of room to build a cozy cabin or a larger mountain home. The Savannah community offers a rural mountain feel with easy access to the rest of Jackson County. Downtown Sylva's restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and local shops are a short drive away, as are historic Dillsboro and Western Carolina University in Cullowhee. You'll also have plenty to do outdoors: trout fishing and tubing on the Tuckasegee River, hiking and waterfalls in the Nantahala National Forest, and day trips to the Great Smoky Mountains and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Bring your plans and see what this private, peaceful lot has to offer!
