Property Description
Why do we love the mountains? For many of us, it's the serenity of being surrounded by forest, listening to the sounds of water falling over the rocks in streams & creeks, taking in the views of nearby mountains & their peaks, and just feeling the peace that comes from being immersed in nature. This site & community have it all! The Creston Community provides all of this within the 1100+ mountaintop acres, with over 500 acres deeded and designated for preservation and conservation. It's like living in a National Park, and actually adjoins one. Enjoy all of this natural space that has been set aside from development on one of the many hiking trails that crisscross the property. Within the conservancy, you'll also find Triple Falls Sanctuary, a 350-acre area with three majestic falls and a campground. Creston has many other amenities for its residents, including a mountaintop Community Center with a clubhouse, state-of-the-art fitness facility, caterer's kitchen, extensive decking with an outdoor fireplace to take in the surrounding views. Multiple common areas can be found along the meandering well-maintained paved roads, including picnic areas, swings, trailheads, a playground, and gazebo with an outdoor fireplace. When you aren't using the gathering areas to meet neighbors and friends, you can enjoy the privacy of this 11+ acre lot. The towering canopy shades the ridgetop, where multiple homesites can be found. Enjoy the sounds of two creeks located on the property. Creston allows for two homes to be built, a primary residence and a guest home, and also allows for short-term rental with some restrictions. If getting away from it all, while being just 15 - 30 minutes from Black Mountain, Asheville, or the Blue Ridge Parkway, is what you are looking for, this is your new home.
