Exceptional opportunity to own a premium slope-front homesite in Beech Mountain with direct backyard ski-in/ski-out access onto the West Bowl run and the potential for long-range, layered mountain views with west-facing exposure and tremendous sunsets. This gently sloped, wooded lot offers a rare combination of true ski frontage, privacy, views, and buildability that is increasingly difficult to find on Beech Mountain.
Unlike many mountain lots, this parcel features public sewer, public water, electric, and fiber optic internet available, significantly reducing construction complexity and long-term development costs. The terrain is gently sloped with no major rock obstacles, making it ideal for a primary residence, second home, or luxury ski retreat.
Positioned toward the upper section of West Bowl at approximately 5,350 feet in elevation, the property benefits from excellent snow access, quieter surroundings, and longer ski-out runs directly from your backyard. With selective tree clearing, the lot can open to expansive, layered mountain vistas and dramatic sunset views thanks to its west-facing orientation, while still preserving the natural mountain setting and privacy. The high elevation also provides remarkably cool summers, with daytime temperatures that rarely exceed the low 70s, offering a comfortable year-round mountain escape.
Property corners are clearly marked on-site, allowing buyers and builders to easily visualize driveway placement, home footprint, and ski access alignment.
Located on Oz Rd in a highly desirable ski-access corridor, this lot offers both lifestyle value and long-term investment potential in one of the Southeast’s premier ski communities.
