Some properties offer a place to build. This one offers a setting worth building around. Lot 10R, known as The Woodland, is tucked at the end of Sunnybrook Drive in Asheville. This 1.185-acre wooded riverfront homesite offers approximately 159 feet of frontage along the Swannanoa River. A mature hardwood canopy and wooded boundary create an uncommon sense of privacy. Walk beneath the trees toward the river and the appeal is immediate—the sound of moving water, filtered light through the hardwoods, and a landscape that already feels established. The setting feels removed, yet the property is conveniently located for enjoying both Asheville and Black Mountain. It is a rare combination: meaningful Swannanoa River frontage, river views, and a natural wooded setting without giving up convenient access to the restaurants, culture, and everyday amenities of Western North Carolina. Much of the uncertainty that can come with buying mountain land has already been addressed. The property has an approved 4-bedroom septic permit, verified city water availability, and buildable area outside the mapped floodplain. There is no HOA, with limited deed restrictions intended to protect the character of the property. The house can be designed. The land cannot be recreated.
