Build your dream mountain retreat in the heart of Banner Elk on this exceptional homesite offering the perfect combination of convenience, privacy, and breathtaking long-range mountain views. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Banner Elk, world-class dining, boutique shopping, Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain ski resorts, championship golf, hiking, wineries, and the countless outdoor adventures that make the High Country one of North Carolina's premier destinations. Lot 4 Elk Creek Drive features paved access, city water and sewer availability, and an outstanding building site within the architecturally controlled community of Elk Creek, where thoughtful design standards help preserve the beauty, character, and long-term value of the neighborhood.
