Looking for uncomplicated access and a manageable to build lot in the beautiful community of Laurel Ridge? This one is gently sloping and nestled in the woods, with a very spacious feel. The property backs up to a small creek and has an old roadbed leading in that could serve as a driveway. All around, there are inspiring Winter views of the surrounding mountain ridges. In the Summer, with the leaves on the trees, enjoy the privacy and coolness of being close to 3000' in elevation along with the soothing sounds of the Laurel Branch just across the road. Having a relatively easy drive from the gate, and with a likely level driveway, also makes this lot stand apart from many others. Laurel Ridge is a unique community that is a 10 minute drive from downtown Black Mountain...though you may feel farther away with its natural surroundings. An abundance of wildlife and forested areas are the norm. Laurel Ridge adjoins the North Fork Valley and is adjacent to the protected 17,000 ac watershed
