Sunalei Forest Estate #10 offers 10.17 acres of high-elevation mountain land within one of the High Country’s most intentionally preserved communities. Located on the slopes of Snake Mountain, this exceptional homesite rises to approximately 4,600 feet in elevation and captures long-range layered sunset views across the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The moderately sloping terrain provides an outstanding setting for a custom mountain estate with a completely unobstructed, expansive view corridor, and a roughed-in driveway has already been started to enhance accessibility to the future building site. Panoramic mountain horizons and rolling ridgelines create a dramatic natural backdrop that changes with the seasons and shifting light throughout the day. Sunalei is thoughtfully designed to follow the natural contours of the Blue Ridge Mountains while preserving forests, ridgelines, and view corridors across the community. When complete, Sunalei will consist of fewer than one hundred homesites spread across the mountain, creating a rare low-density ownership experience centered on land, elevation, and conservation. Estate #10 enjoys convenient proximity to High Mountain Camp, the community’s mountaintop gathering lodge featuring a large stone fireplace, expansive outdoor deck, and panoramic western views stretching toward the distant mountains of Tennessee. Surrounded by preserved forest and located adjacent to Elk Knob State Park, Sunalei offers direct access to hiking trails, wildlife habitat, and the remarkable natural beauty that defines the North Carolina High Country. Despite its peaceful mountain setting, the community remains a short drive from the towns of Boone, Banner Elk, and Blowing Rock. For those seeking estate-scale land, exceptional elevation, and authentic mountain living, Sunalei Forest Estate #10 presents a rare opportunity to create a legacy mountain retreat within one of the region’s most preserved landscapes.

Headline: Historic "Sarah Boone" Homestead & Investment Opportunity on Cove Creek – 3 Homes, 3+ Acres, No Restrictions! Step back in time and into an incredible investment opportunity with this unique 3+ acre compound featuring extensive Cove Creek frontage. Offering three distinct structures, income potential, and rich local history, this property is a rare find with heavy infrastructure improvements already completed. 1. The Historic Main House (Circa 1900): Reputed to be the former home of Sarah Boone (Daniel Boone’s sister), this ~1,400 sq. ft. farmhouse (4 bed/2 bath) is a restoration dream. While it requires full renovation, the "heavy lifting" is done: a new metal roof, complete replumbing, and updated electrical are in place. The interior has been gutted and prepped, featuring a newly framed bathroom and opened-up floorplan, ready for your vision. 2. The Creek-Side Cottage: Sitting directly on the water, this 1 bed/1 bath cottage features a basement garage. It has been sheet-rocked, wired, and had the bathroom built out. It needs updates but offers unmatched tranquility right next to the rushing water. 3. The Income Generator: A ~1,000 sq. ft. mobile home (3 bed/1 bath) is currently generating $900/mo from excellent, reliable tenants (willing to stay or go with 30-day notice). Recently refreshed with a newer hot water heater, new flooring (LVP and carpet), fresh paint, new appliances, and a privacy fence. In addition the two RV's each bring in $400 per month. The Land & Infrastructure: Post-Helene recovery has resulted in massive improvements: a brand new bridge, extensive grading, a new driveway, and a creek bank reinforced with a gabion wall. The property includes 2 wells (new pumps), 2 septic tanks, and a natural spring. With NO RESTRICTIONS, the possibilities are endless. Debris and non-running vehicles will be removed prior to closing.
