View map

Tucked inside the gated Monteagle community just outside of Banner Elk, this beautifully laying 1.8-acre lot offers one of the best opportunities to build in one of the High Country’s best-kept secrets. The terrain is gentle and highly buildable, making it easy to bring your mountain vision to life without the headaches that often come with steep or complicated sites.

Monteagle is known for its quiet elegance. A small, thoughtfully planned neighborhood with high-end mountain homes, a strong sense of privacy, and a setting that feels tucked away while still being less than 10 minutes to downtown Banner Elk. It’s the kind of place where homes are designed to last, neighbors value peace and quality, and the pace is unmistakably mountain calm.

Whether you’re dreaming of a cozy second home, a refined weekend escape, or a smart investment, the flexibility here is hard to beat. A modest 1,000 square foot minimum allows for a wide range of home designs, and short-term rentals are permitted, offering both personal enjoyment and income potential.

If you’ve been thinking about building a mountain getaway or finally bringing that High Country dream to life, this lot checks all the right boxes. Acreage, ease of build, strong community, and a location that continues to shine quietly in Banner Elk.

This is a rare chance to build exactly what you want, exactly where you want it.
