AFFORDABLE MOUNTAIN HOMESITE WITH CREEK-SIDE COMMUNITY SETTING! Build your mountain getaway or full-time home in Rivers Edge, a small private community tucked along Jonathan Creek. This 0.75-acre wooded homesite offers privacy, natural beauty, approximately 2,500+ feet of elevation, and the peaceful sound and character of the creek below. The property is located near the end of the road and offers access from Serendipity Lane, with an additional upper-road access option from Fragrant Pine Drive. A major bonus for buyers: an expired 3-bedroom septic permit from 1998 is available as a starting point for future planning. The community has a 950-square-foot minimum home size, giving you flexibility to build a smaller mountain retreat rather than taking on a large construction project. The wooded setting features mature trees and rhododendrons, with mountain views possible with selective tree clearing. Enjoy the charm of crossing the community's wooden bridge as you enter this peaceful neighborhood of only 32 lots. Jonathan Creek borders the community and offers opportunities for fishing and enjoying the surrounding natural environment. The property sits approximately 100 feet above the creek, providing elevation and a cool mountain setting. Rivers Edge is conveniently located for enjoying Waynesville, Maggie Valley, Cherokee and Asheville, while still offering a private mountain setting. HOA dues are approximately $450/year and cover maintenance of the private roads, bridge and common areas. No manufactured or mobile homes permitted. A great opportunity for someone looking for an affordable Western North Carolina mountain homesite with privacy, recreation nearby and the ability to build a modest-sized home.
