Bold springs are on the property and one was used as a water source for many years. Wooded nature surrounds you with a seasonal view or the potential for a mountain ridge view with some tree clearing. The location could not be any better being less than 5 minutes to Banner Elk, with proximity to skiing, wineries, hiking, golf, tennis, equestrian facilities and more.
