The Hidden Forest community currently has three single family houses, each on a minimum ten acre lot. This secluded little neighborhood has it all: beautiful arch bridges over meandering creeks, roadside wildflowers and abundant wildlife, owls and hawks, plus dark sky night views of the moon and stars (due to minimal night lighting). From River Road, a gravel road winds along a gurgling brook, leading to the Lot #3 private driveway, which climbs up to an exquisite cleared level homesite at the top of the hill. Southern exposure provides plenty of sunshine. The homesite has a panoramic wide angle winter view of the nearby mountains and hills. A year round view can be created with some selective tree cutting. The pristine nature of this subdivision is not marred by ugly overhead utilities. Underground electricity and fiber optic cables (internet, tv, possible landline, etc.) are located at the lower end of this lot, and can be readily extended along a hiking trail up to the homesite. A scenic stretch of the New River, popular in summer with kayakers and tubers, is only a quarter mile from the private subdivision entrance, and under a 1/2 mile from this homesite. The river is close enough to reach by bicycle or an invigorating walk, but far enough away for quiet and privacy. If this sounds like the right place for you to unwind from the stress of city life, you're welcome to check it out in person. Roughly a 15 minute drive (8.5 miles) to New Market center in Boone.

Travelers who dream of star-scattered skies, painted sunsets, and the hush of the hills often find themselves drawn here. Fresh paint welcomes anyone who steps through the door, hinting at the care poured into the home over time. Inside, warmth settles easily. A cozy kitchen with inviting wooden cabinets opens to a nearby dining nook, to enjoy slow breakfasts or easy evening meals. Off the side deck rests a spacious bonus room—flexible enough to become whatever the heart imagines: a studio, a workshop, or a quiet retreat. The den, lined in rich wood, offers the kind of comfort that asks you to linger. A sunroom stretches out from it, glowing with natural light and offering a quiet place to read, rest, or simply watch the seasons turn. Three bedrooms and two full baths rest along the main level, providing simplicity and ease. Below, an unfinished basement—warmed by both installed heat and a sturdy woodstove—adds possibility. Step outside, and the yard opens wide, dotted with outbuildings and graced by apple and walnut trees. A grapevine curls nearby, and deer sometimes wander through as if they, too, feel at home. The new deck invites morning coffee, evening beverages, and the peaceful rhythm of mountain life. Just minutes from town and a short drive to nearby communities, the location blends convenience with rural calm. The New River flows not far away, its gentle lull offering a natural escape. Hiking trails wind through the mountains, and the Blue Ridge Parkway beckons with its stunning views and endless sky. Here, life slows. Here, the mountains whisper welcome.

Homesite ES-86 is a high-elevation 1.45-acre mountain homesite located in the Eagle Springs section of The Lodges at Eagles Nest, offering elevations exceeding 4,600 feet, gently sloping topography, and a fully usable homesite setting immersed in the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The property features a broad and highly functional building envelope that supports a more efficient and cost-effective path to future construction compared with many steep mountain properties. A current four-bedroom septic permit is already in place, providing meaningful development value by reducing both due diligence timelines and upfront engineering costs while allowing flexibility for a wide range of custom mountain home designs beginning at just 1,200 heated square feet. Massive rugged boulder formations, mature hardwoods, and seasonal rolling mountain views create a distinctive mountain setting with strong natural character and visual interest throughout the property. Positioned within a quieter section of Eagles Nest with limited traffic, the homesite offers a strong sense of connection to the surrounding mountain landscape while remaining conveniently accessible to the community’s core amenities. Owners in Eagle Springs enjoy close proximity to Camp Eagles Nest, the Beech Mountain access gate, North Pavilion, Eagles Nest Winery, and extensive ATV trail systems that continue to make this section highly desirable for both outdoor recreation and long-term mountain ownership. The Lodges at Eagles Nest encompasses more than 3,000 acres of high-elevation terrain with elevations exceeding 5,200 feet and is recognized for its balance of preserved mountain landscape and thoughtfully developed lifestyle amenities. The community features panoramic mountain views, waterfalls, dramatic rock formations, flowing streams, extensive trail systems for hiking, mountain biking, and ATV riding, access to the Elk River, and a wide range of gathering and recreation destinations including The Great Camp, Camp Eagles Nest, Eagles Nest River Club, The North Pavilion, Eagles Nest Winery, and Epic Chophouse restaurant. As buyers continue to prioritize usable high-elevation land, development readiness, and strong natural mountain character, homesites offering this combination of topography, elevation, and amenity access are becoming increasingly difficult to find within Eagles Nest, making ES-86 a compelling opportunity for future custom mountain construction.
