Tbd Poplar Grove Road, Boone, NC

The scarcity of significant acreage within a mile of the Boone city limits establishes this thirty-five-acre holding as a rare acquisition for those prioritizing proximity to Appalachian State University. The topography offers a diverse profile of flat pastures and rolling slopes that transition into steeper elevations, providing varied perspectives of the surrounding mountain ranges and the valley below. Perimeter fencing remains from the property’s history as a cattle farm, and a stream intersects the lower portion near the state-maintained road frontage. For the UHNW investor, the Boone submarket currently reflects a sustained demand for large tracts capable of supporting either a private residential estate or high-end development, given the limited inventory of unimproved land so close to the municipal core. This versatility allows for a bespoke site plan that preserves the agricultural character while integrating modern infrastructure. Private inquiries and requests for site tours may be directed to Peters & Associates.

This property has road frontage with a state maintained paved road and also has a stream on the front section of the property.
