Description: Just inside the gates of Cross Creek Preserve, you'll find this 2.86 parcel ready for your private mountain escape. Build your dream home here and make a trail down to the road at the bottom of the lot. The road will lead you to the Preserve Park common area, one of several tranquil common areas where residents can partake in activities like kayaking, fishing in the stocked trout lake, or gathering around a community fire ring for a campfire. Enjoy the sights and sounds of streams that run through and all around this property situated above 3,900 feet elevation. Short-range mountain ridge views are obtainable once the home site is opened up and with select tree trimming. Cross Creek Preserve, a gated community, embraces a low-key, well-maintained atmosphere with a charming covered bridge entrance and multiple common areas dedicated to preserving the natural beauty of the surroundings. Ideally positioned between Cashiers and Highlands, it shares proximity with upscale neighborhoods like Mountaintop Golf & Lake Club, Old Edwards Club, Glen Cove, Trillium Links & Lake Club, and Norton Overlook. The nearby Town & Country General Store supplies you with provisions for mountain living. With just 24 estate-sized home sites and a handful of million-dollar-plus homes already constructed, Cross Creek stands as a hidden gem, a mere 5.5 miles from the Cashiers Crossroads. Building a residence in Cross Creek requires a minimum square footage of 1,800. The construction process is facilitated by the inclusion of underground utilities and the availability of a community water system hookup at the roadside. An expired three bedroom septic permit is on file. Enjoy gated community living with low POA fees and water usage included.
