Chimney Laurel rests high atop cool, green Elk Mountain. At 3,600 feet elevation, this residential real estate community descends into the valley below with an undisturbed view of the area north of Asheville. A mountain view featuring the spectacular massif of the Blue Ridge Mountains adds a special touch to Chimney Laurel.

Framed by the majesty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Chimney Laurel offers home sites beginning at $350,000. The sites range from 1.6 to 3.6 acres, providing plenty of breathing room and privacy. These large sites boast mature stands of mountain laurel, rhododendron, and hardwoods.

The gated front entrance includes a unique water design. The roads which are constructed with curb and gutter curve beautifully, providing stunning views on the drive down. The elevation gradually decreases as though the mountain casually welcomes you with the easing descent.

The planned common area with picnic tables and a fire pit is a great way to get to know your neighbors. Everywhere you look, trees are plentiful, and the owners took great care to preserve as many as possible. This is a community dedicated to preserving the secluded, breathtaking beauty of its surroundings; there is no golf course, pool, or other encroachment here.

Springs are carefully preserved, as are the chimneys that dot the land. A few lucky homeowners will own one of these chimneys as part of their home site.
