Perched at the very top of the mountain, this 1.83-acre homesite offers rare elevation, space, and possibility for those dreaming of a true mountain escape. Sitting higher than surrounding lots, this property captures the feeling of being above it all where quiet, sky, and sweeping treeline views become part of everyday life. Compared to neighboring parcels, the terrain here appears more forgiving, offering a broader, flatter building area that opens the door for a wider range of home designs — from a luxury mountain lodge to a timeless cabin retreat or a bold modern escape. With nearly two acres to work with, you’ll enjoy privacy, flexibility, and room to create outdoor living spaces that match the scale of the setting. This is raw mountain land, ready for vision. Utilities will be private, and site prep, excavation, and grading should be expected — but those who understand mountain construction know that the most remarkable homes are born from elevated ground and thoughtful design. The reward is a setting that simply can’t be replicated in the lowlands. If you’re searching for flat subdivision lots and city convenience, this mountain won’t bend. But if you’re drawn to space, elevation, and the chance to build something that stands apart — this summit homesite delivers. Here, at the top, surrounded by timber, sky, and the stillness only the mountains can offer, you have the opportunity to create more than a house. Build a destination. Build a retreat. Build your mountain legacy.

This is a mountain sanctuary for the bold and audacious buyer or builder. This is a place in the mountains where the air feels different — quieter, softer, as if the world itself slows down. The land is tucked away into the rolling terrain of Connelly Springs, this raw homesite is waiting for the rare buyer who doesn’t just want land, but a setting to create something unforgettable. Located inside an exclusive gated community, this property blends privacy with prestige. Homes are spaced wide apart, preserving the natural rhythm of the forest, while residents enjoy access to a private golf course, a peaceful park, and two scenic ponds. Here, the backdrop isn’t traffic or rooftops — it’s towering trees, open sky, and sweeping mountain views that elevate every moment. This is mountain terrain in its truest form. Raw. Elevated. Untouched. The buyer who answers this call understands what that means: a willingness to design with the land, to invest in excavation and grading, and to build where others hesitate. A private well will be required to draw fresh water from the earth. A septic system will need to be installed to anchor independence. This is not a plug-and-play lot — it’s a canvas for those prepared to shape rugged ground into a refined retreat. Imagine a handcrafted log cabin rising from the mountainside — soaring timbers, expansive decks, walls of glass capturing sunrise and sunset. Picture mornings wrapped in mist, afternoons filled with mountain light, and evenings glowing by fire as the valley settles below. A place where every window frames a view and every stay feels like an escape. For builders and investors, this homesite offers more than a build — it offers opportunity. The demand for authentic mountain experiences continues to rise, and properties like this are exactly what today’s travelers seek. This setting is perfectly suited for a luxury short-term rental or Airbnb destination — a retreat that guests book for peace, romance, and adventure, and remember long after they leave. Here, privacy becomes the product, serenity becomes the experience, and the views become your brand. This raw, mountainous homesite invites a buyer who is ready to build with intention. The terrain calls for thoughtful design, private well and septic, and the kind of excavation and grading that transforms rugged ground into something remarkable. Those who know mountain construction understand: the most unforgettable retreats are shaped by vision, investment, and respect for the land. If you’re inspired by bold builds, timeless log cabins, and destinations that rise above the ordinary, this property offers the chance to create something truly rare.
