Welcome to Sagee Ridge - a rare and remarkable opportunity to own a premier piece of Highlands real estate. Just minutes from the vibrant shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions of downtown Highlands, this approximately 9-acre mountain sanctuary offers an extraordinary blend of natural beauty, seclusion, and convenience. Perched on the edge of the mountain with an unheard-of combination of level topography and panoramic views, the land is a true anomaly in the Highlands market. The gentle, usable terrain opens up numerous possibilities for a private estate, family compound, or a thoughtfully designed sub-divided luxury enclave. Rarely does such a buildable property present itself with such dramatic, front-row views. The vistas are nothing short of spectacular-up close and personal with the iconic cliffs of Whiteside Mountain, and extending far beyond to the endless layers of the Blue Ridge Mountains. With an east-facing orientation, the property captures stunning sunrises that bathe the landscape in golden light. Surrounded by lush, native foliage including towering hardwoods, rhododendrons, and mountain laurel, the property offers the feeling of a private nature preserve. The land has been selectively cleared and groomed, making it easy to walk and fully appreciate both the terrain and the views during showings. Sagee Ridge is being offered as one extraordinary estate parcel or as three individually purchasable lots, each ranging from 2 to 3+ acres. This flexible offering allows buyers to create their own legacy estate or invest in one or more parcels to share the beauty of this land with family or future homeowners. Properties of this caliber-offering privacy, accessibility, gentle topography, and iconic views-are becoming increasingly rare. Whether you're envisioning a legacy mountain retreat or a refined residential development, Sagee Ridge provides a blank canvas unlike any other. Don't miss the opportunity to own one of Highlands' most exceptional and inspiring parcels.

A 'WALK-TO-TOWN' wonderland of overgrown cow pasture and Old Growth forest. The 'Old Edward's family homesite' land was purchased by C.B. Edwards from Sam Kelsey in 1878. The property remains owned by those heirs. Being 'Private Property' it was spared the cutting of Kelsey's Primeval Forest in 1946. Now, 144 years later, Turkey's Foot, Princess Pine, various mosses, and ferns still cover the gentle forest floor, animal paths lead here, there and everywhere. A grouping of Wild Plum trees in full fruit were recently discovered....and delicious. The big trees are stunning and the proximity to town most notable. Wouldn't it be wonderful to own your very own Nature Preserve inside Highlands city limit. Property adjoins HCLT Kelsey Trail. This much land in R2 opens up many possibilities. Public sewer has already been installed under the path of unopened Poplar Street which fronts this parcel. Public water is also available. BE BEAR WISE!!!

An old house from the 1920s sat on the pasture area but had to be dismantled because sadly, it was not in salvageable condition. Plans and pictures are available, however, if someone wants to recreate and enhance this part of history. The new owner also has exciting possibilities. As indicated, the parcel can be divided into four estate-sized lots, but an owner may want to consider other options. A preliminary rendering of how the parcel can be utilized is available. Perhaps, after validating with the necessary financial and Land Trust officials, the owner could utilize one or two spots for new homes and take advantage of tax benefits by retaining the remainder as a quiet, beautiful community area that will then be forever preserved for the enjoyment of future generations of families who appreciate and value the distinct benefits of Highlands. Regardless how a buyer may choose to proceed, the options are mesmerizing.Please check with the listing agents for other ideas about maximizing this beautiful place.
