Forest and mountain view homesites offer owners the beauty of the natural world in a private gated community.

Firethorn is truly a unique offering. It is undeniably the last, best, parcel available for development between Boone and Blowing Rock. Firethorn joins the Blue Ridge Parkway on its southern border. The Middle Fork of the New River runs for over 3,000 feet through the property and creates its northern boundary.

Firethorn will be an unsurpassed gated mountain retreat with breath-taking views of Grandfather Mountain and Flat Top, rising to a 4,000 ft. peak at its highest ridge line near Thunder Hill. Hiking trails have been sculpted through the woodlands, and gently carved around the cliffs, streams and meadow neighborhoods that owners will share with deer and wild turkey. These neighborhoods will be connected by a network of common areas and roads that wind unintrusively through the carefully preserved hardwood forests, wildflowers, trout ponds and rock formations that form the perfect backdrop for custom building on the 150 acres of Firethorn.

Only A Few Homesites, But All Are Choice

Only 96 distinctive homesites are planned, averaging from 1 1/4 to 3 plus acres. Prices start at $225,000. We invite you to explore the variety of homesites, whether in a dense hemlock and hardwood area, along a river or stream or in a meadow with unmatched long-range views. Whichever suits your desires, all homesites are designed to blend naturally with the land and take maximum advantage of the proximity to the trail system, green spaces and water courses.
