Rising above the landscape like a private summit, this remarkable 4.78-acre mountaintop sanctuary delivers nearly 360-degree, year-round panoramic views of endless mountain ridgelines and the glistening expanse of Lake Glenville below. Carefully carved view corridors preserve sweeping, permanent vistas to the southeast, northeast, and west, while bathing the land in shifting light from dawn's first glow to fiery mountain sunsets. At the very crown of the property, a rare level homesite awaits-an effortless canvas surrounded by a gentle natural grade, perfectly suited for a custom architectural masterpiece, expansive terraces, and outdoor living spaces that dissolve into the horizon. This is not merely land--it is an experience. A place where morning mist rises from the lake, afternoons invite adventure, and evenings settle into absolute serenity. With a nearby marina , cascading waterfalls, and world-class golf just minutes away, every day here feels like a permanent escape. For those who seek more than a home-who seek a legacy, a retreat, a destination-this extraordinary mountaintop offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create something truly timeless
