Experience the MAGIC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6VSpYEt8_I Imagine stepping outside each morning to horses grazing in the PASTURE below and the SMOKY MOUNTAINS filling the horizon beyond. This exceptional homesite in the EQUESTRIAN DEVELOPMENT, the Settlement at Thomas Divide offers a setting that is impossible to duplicate in the BRYSON CITY/CHEROKEE—and you don't have to climb a steep mountain to get the view. Located at the END-OF-THE-ROAD, this south-facing, CLEARED LOT sits directly alongside the community's expansive fenced lined PASTURE bordering two sides and a small CREEK along another. The result is a remarkable sense of space: instead of looking into neighboring lots, your backyard opens into acres of ROLLING GREEN PASTURE framed by STUNNING MOUNTAIN VIEWS! There are no other available homesites in the community with this special location. Created with the equestrian lifestyle in mind, The Settlement at Thomas Divide offers something you simply don't find in other area communities—stables, horses, pastures and the possibility of boarding your own horse within the development and riding right from home. The community itself adjoins Great Smoky Mountains National Park, putting an extraordinary outdoor playground practically in your backyard. The hard work has already begun: the 3BR SEPTIC is installed, UNDERGROUND POWER is at the lot and the homesite is CLEARED and ready for your vision. Conveniently located between Bryson City and Cherokee, you can enjoy easy access to town while coming home to a setting that feels worlds away. If you've dreamed of a mountain home where horses graze outside your door, the Smokies rise beyond the pasture and the drive home doesn't require navigating a steep mountainside, this is the homesite you've been dreaming of.
