Why Live in Black Mountain, NC?

Black Mountain has been called the "Front Porch of Western North Carolina," and anyone fortunate enough to sit on the front porch of a Black Mountain cabin, soaking up the fresh mountain air and long-range views, will know why. Blanketed in native rhododendron and mountain laurel, the majestic mountain peaks surrounding Black Mountain provide vivid landscapes no matter the season, as well as recreational activities. Hike along a babbling mountain stream to a rushing waterfall, or bike along the greenway and experience the quiet solitude of this small, historic town. The wide variety of Black Mountain NC homes for sale offers the opportunity to enjoy all that the region has to offer—whether for a vacation, or on a more permanent basis if you're ready to call Black Mountain, one of the "prettiest small towns in America," home.
