Residential Land for Sale in Sylva, North Carolina
98 Hosta Dr, Sylva, NC 28779
Private 6.45-acre mountain homesite at the very end of the road in Cane Creek Ridge, about 4 miles from downtown Sylva. As the last lot, there is no through traffic, and the natural building spot sits right where the road ends, matching the gentler ground LiDAR mapping shows along the north side. An old logging road runs along the ridge, and an old trail leads down to a second flatter area mid-slope. The land is fully wooded and untouched; selective clearing around a home site can open seasonal mountain views. High point about 3,500 ft, east-southeast facing for morning sun. Jackson County has no zoning here; recorded covenants allow new site-built homes of 600 sq ft or more (no mobile homes). Road HOA about $500 a year. FEMA Zone X. Well, septic and a power extension will be needed. Nantahala National Forest is under a mile away. Plat, 3D terrain images and a full due diligence report are available.
