A Gated community, A lot that makes it easy for you to visualize the beginning of construction of your new mountain home. Makes it easy with these peaceful, natural surroundings. Lot 4 sits within Highlands Point, a gated enclave of eleven homesites just two miles down Dillard Rd from Main Street Highlands. The community is small by design — the kind of place where neighbors build carefully, and the gates mean something. Several custom homes are already standing, and the standard they set is evident. The lot itself is nearly an acre at .96 with generous road frontage and a natural elevation that rises from the street. That uphill grade is more than aesthetic; it is gently sloped and ready to receive the home of your design near the top of the road by the cul-de-sac. The drone confirms what the topography suggests: views of Whiteside Mountain are present at the build site. Selective clearing would open that view fully. How much clearing depends on your architect and where you place the home. The groundwork for moving forward is further along than a raw lot might imply. A water tap and utilities are already at the street. A site evaluation has identified the septic location, and in Macon County, the permit process is refreshingly straightforward — typically a few weeks, provide a site plan, bedroom count, and a fee currently ranging from $200–$800 based on bedroom size can usually be acquired within a few weeks. Details at maconnc.org/environmental-septic.html or by phone at 828-349-2490. A professional excavating company has also reviewed driveway access to the homesite; that information is available upon request. Most raw land asks you to solve problems before you can build anything. This lot has been solving them quietly. The dream you've been holding onto is ready when you are.
