Lot 179: 23.0 ac $94,900 (lowest price in Ashton Woods!)
Property Description:
With a dramatic Southeast exposure, the view of South Branch Mountain from this lot looks into miles of the Ashton Woods property. Even the view from the road in front of Lot 179 takes your breath away! A gentle building site at almost 2000' elevation is 100' from the road and has an old logging road to easily access the site on a level grade. Most of the lot below the build site is fairly steep... generally a feature of those lots with great views.
A surprising aspect of this property is the unusual fieldstone wall that runs through it, just below the building site. Reminds me of the stone walls I grew up with in New England, but never see in the WV woods.

Rare.... Flat Land!
Lot 70: 20.55 ac $110,000
Property Description:
Lot 70 is a beautiful flat expanse of gorgeous long-leaf Loblolly Pines running over one-thousand feet deep from the road. This is a young pine forest (11 years old), growing quickly and loaded with wildlife (just ask my dog!). This lot lays adjacent to my own beautiful Lot 71 property. Every inch of this property is easy to walk on and easy to camp on, making it truly special for both the young and not-so-young. The ground is padded with 6" of lush pine needles making it a pleasure to walk and sit on. This property is walking distance to the Trough View Road entrance to Ashton Woods and situated on a quiet cul-de-sac well off the main road. If you live here full-time, you'll recognize the convenience of being a short distance from the entry gate, mailboxes and trash collection. The very rear corner of the property has a mild slope and large hardwood trees and lays adjacent to a large farm.

Lot 313: 20.10 ac $112,000
Property Description:
Lot 313 is a "view-lot", meaning, the building sites are limited due to steep slopes, but the views are not. Tale a look at the TOPO MAP first and get the basic idea of the lay of the land. The building location will likely be about 100' from the road on the left (south) side of the lot, facing north, where the views are always clearest. The Build Site will need some clearing, as most do, to get your view. the driveway can be short and perfectly flat, if done correctly.
The lower parts of the property are loaded with old roads from previous logging days. Some will make nice hiking paths.
Lot 73: 20.4 ac $135,000
Pond, creek, driveway, gate, bridge!
Property Description:
Here's one of those rare ones that everyone keeps asking about! Lot 73 has a long driveway, winding throughout he property from the entrance gate at the end of Loblolly Drive, past the pond, through the field below the pond, then crossing the concrete-topped road across Sawmill Run. From the creek, the driveway then gently climbs a small ridge to the likely building site at the top, in the woods. Total distance is about 1200'. How's that for privacy! All this comes in a property just 1/2 mile from the Trough View Road security gate, mailboxes, etc. This would be especially convenient for those planning to live full-time in Ashton Woods, as I am. Here's two more shots of Sawmill Run after a March rain.
Here's the TOPO MAP so you can see how all this lays out. If interested in this one, you'll need to see it quickly. Ponds and creeks are in high demand!
Lot 257: 20.87 ac

Property Description:
This property enjoys a brand-new 800'-long flat, gravel driveway, leading to a leveled building site in the best spot, with a truly spectacular view of the valley below.

Property Description:
Close to the top of the mountain, at 2800', where the air is thin and cool, this is the view from the edge of the road along the top of the lot.... 2000 feet down to the valley floor below! Take a look at this view with fog in the valley below. Seller has priced this to go and is even willing to make a huge sacrifice if you buy this WITH the adjoining Lot 255. Truly stupendous views from this property, totally unobstructed by trees. Old logging road runs along face of property at top and is perfectly drivable... this will be your driveway. Camp or park your camper there (campers cannot be permanent, tho). Just one mile up the PRIVATE road, you can access over 10,000 acres of State Public Hunting Land at a very private entry point. Guaranteed cool summer temperatures (yes, at 2800', even with global warming!), good breezes and even mind-boggling displays of nighttime stars, for the astronomer. Great roads border this land. I can email plats, topo map, covenants, perc test, whatever, but you'll have to come to the mountains to see this property! Well worth the trip, if the view is your goal.

Property Description:
HUGE property... 30 ac of open fields, gentle slopes, great mountain views, hardwoods & pines, with a clear stream that runs 1800' from end to end of the property.

Located 1.5 miles from the West Gate (very convenient). Gentle, grassy building site with scattered mature trees, faces the mountains to the west. You can turn this land into whatever you want... but first you need to see it!

About Ashton Woods Property in General:
About a 4-8 minute drive (from Ashton Woods' 3 gated exits) to public access points on the South Branch of the Potomac River for canoing, hiking and fishing. New 4-lane portions of Rt. 55 (Corridor H) cut drive times considerably for those coming from the DC area. All Ashton Woods lots are perked, surveyed and accessed by shale or gravel roads, all being upgraded to gravel in the coming 2 years. Phone and electric are already in front of most lots... coming soon to the rest. Electric lines to every lot were already paid for by the original buyers. Restrictive covenants that protect your property from mobile homes, commercially use, or from lots being subdivided any smaller than 20 acres etc., are summarized below. Full 10 page copy of the Ashton Woods Restrictive Covenants is available to potential buyers. I can email them to you.
Nearby Moorefield (5-8 miles from entrances) has a 24-hour Wal-Mart, numerous restaurants, a great Starbucks-like coffee shop, a six screen movie theater, and most other services are available nearby. Closest hospitals are in Petersburg and Romney, each about 20 miles.
HEY BUYERS! ALL these Ashton Woods properties are privately owned by different owners and are listed by Realtor Charlie Winfree. You are welcome to use the services of any other Realtor as a Buyer's Agent to help you make your purchase, but you MUST use their services to request additional information and to show these properties to you. That's how they earn their fees. I will email whatever they request, plus the proper access code through the gates. Ashton Woods is a Gated Community. You must have your Realtor with you to gain entry... codes found being abused have been canceled. I'm always ready, willing and able to show these properties to my Buyers. I know the owners, the land, the roads, the rules, the upcoming plans and I even know of some lots not on the market that may be negotiable.
I build these web pages for my Buyers! They're to save us both time and help you make the very best decisions. When I work directly with Buyers (as I do 90% of the time), I provide you with the same level of loyalty, service and confidentiality that I do for my Sellers. I do this by providing Dual Agency services, which, when done correctly, simply levels the playing field, giving equal representation to both Buyer and Seller. Nothing more, nothing less. Learn more about how that works HERE.
When working directly with me on these properties, I will provide you with maps, covenants, Association details, septic papers, comparable property information, current deeds, and much more, before you make your purchase, PLUS a 5' wide wall map of Ashton Woods at closing.
I am an owner in Ashton Woods and know it well. Working directly with me gives you the edge. I know every lot, every trail, every road, every bargain property, every view property, every type of property. I know where to put the driveway, the well, septic and the best place to build. I know the contractors who can provide you with a driveway, or a beautiful log home. I know the property corners and where the neighbors are likely to build on adjacent lots. I have the maps and plats of everything. I can quickly determine the lots you really need to see after we look at one or two and I get your feedback on those. We will waste no time together.
Last thoughts...
If you are serious about seeing/buying these properties, good shoes or boots and long pants are essential. Be certain to dress for the weather! You will NOT see these large properties effectively from the seat of a car. If you do not plan to make a purchase in the next few months, you should consider waiting until you are about ready to buy. The list of available lots changes weekly. When you do come out to look, be sure to bring your spouse or co-purchaser. They need to see everything you do.
Dog Owners: If your dog is likely to get along with my super-friendly female Husky, bring him or her along! The dogs love walking in the woods with us.

Lot
148: 20.15 ac
Property Description: 20.15 acres of mountain land in Ashton Woods, featuring mixed hardwoods (mostly Sugar Maple) and Pine, at an elevation of 1400-1500'. About half the acreage is gently sloped, meaning potentially available for a building site and driveway, taking you far from the roads. This lot has an old logging road running along the main ridge line through the pines that could be the basis for a driveway or just a great trail for walking through the forest. It takes about ten minutes to walk from one road to the other through the lot, mostly on this old road, and it's a pleasant walk the whole way. This lot has good access from TWO roads and potential building sites are accessed from either road. Phone & electric lines border the lot on each side.

Lot 149: 20.1 ac
Property Description:
A level entry from Ridge View Road along an old logging road (photo) brings you to a flat build site at the edge of a bluff with an eastern view . Mixed pines and hardwoods cover most of the 8 fairly level acres on Lot 149. Build about anywhere within that large flat area, but the most eastern portion will allow for the best views. Plenty of space for other uses for the land, as well.
The old logging road connects with and continues through the nicest part of adjacent Lot 148. Lot 149 is ideal for camping. The 800' of old logging road makes a perfect driveway and gets you around the best of the acreage without having to cut but a few trees. The far north side of the property has a large power line that defines that 600' property line. It's not visible from any likely build site and no structures touch the property.

Lot 77 has a bit of everything. Several acres in the front are mostly pines and level fields. In the rear of the property, there are several acres of hardwood forest bordering a year-round creek. A wooded hill rises 100' above the shaded creek. But most of the property is relatively level grassy fields with small pines and a few hardwood trees popping up here and there. The fields slope very gently down to the crystal-clear creek. Take a look at the TOPO MAP . Elevation is about 1100'. A home could be built about anywhere on this property. Probably the best spot would be at the top of the gentle rise, just behind the pine patch from the road, biggest windows facing South for the sunlight, or East toward the creek. This one's a peach!

Lot 55: 22.18 ac
Property Description:
Prepare yourself for 22 acres of pure natural beauty! The owners of this property will have their own park to enjoy! Over 1800 feet of crystal-clear waters of Clifford Hollow Run make up the rear boundary line for Lot 55. Laying to the side of the creek are about 12 of the prettiest flat to gently rolling acres you'll ever find. Through it all, runs an old logging road, for 1500' (shown as dotted line on the topo map). This wide-open maple-oak-hickory forest looks far more like a public park than a private land parcel.
The upland portion of the property is a pine forest on a gentle hilltop, 80' above the creek. Build your home here and overlook it all.

Property Description: Over 20 acres of rare FLAT, wooded land, the kind that allows you to use 100% of the land for enjoyment and have a flat driveway and a level building site. Use this property the way you want to be using property... walk all over it, make trails, enjoy a long, low-maintenance, driveway, NEVER worry about snow or ice on a hill. This is the sort of property you want if you're tired of fooling with steep land and especially if you plan to live here full-time. A 20 AC PLAYGROUND!. A mix of hardwoods & pines. Some giant older trees at the far end of the property were forgotten by the loggers years ago. :-) From there, you could have 100% privacy and a nice view into a valley just south of this lot. See the TOPO MAP . Note that the topo map has 5' contour intervals... that's how flat it is.

Lot 309: 20.22 ac
Property Description: "Lookout Ridge"
20 ac wooded mountain lot at Ashton Woods has a 1400' long gentle ridge with an old logging road allowing you to drive right to several beautiful camping sites and potential building sites. Drive the entire distance, going from one beautiful flat spot to another. Camp on them all, first! TOTAL privacy for camping. Each spot has a northeast-southwest view & sunsets. Use the south exposure for the sunlight and clear just a few trees on the north side for your views of the mountains. Wherever you camp or build, you'll have the privacy you want, because you'll be 100 to 400 yards from the private road with about zero traffic. Here's the TOPO MAP.

Lot 22: 20.31 ac
Property
Description:
FIRST thing to know about Lot 22 at Ashton Woods is how convenient it is to the new 4-lane Corridor-H (Route 55) highway! Just a half-mile off the highway to your new home in the woods. This lot already has a level driveway cut in to a cleared area of about an acre, opening up a terrific view of the mountains. The other 19 acres are all wooded with some pines but mostly deciduous trees. The center of the property has a small stream bed running through it, which may have water part, but not all of the year. The other side of the property also has some very nice land for camping or building with great views.

Lot 331: 20.22 ac
Property Description:
This 20 ac wooded lot comprises the entirety of a flat-topped knoll just below the top of the mountain at about 2350' elevation... about 1500' above the valley floor. Sweeping views of the mountains are to be had with some modest trimming of the trees (no need to bulldoze the forest, tho). Just one lot away (past home for sale for $1.2 mil), you can access 10,675 acres of state land... hike, hunt, camp! The developer split the similar adjacent knoll into two lots and sold both, each for about the price of this entire knoll. Other knolls at this elevation sold for up to twice this price.
See the TOPO MAP and you'll appreciate the way this one was laid out.

Lot 198: 35.5 ac
Property Description:
Larger than average, even by huge Ashton Woods standards, this 35 acre property also runs right up to 10' from the very top of Lockinger Ridge. The pre-approved building site sits on the ridge on the north corner of the property, with views to both the east and west. Further up the ridge, there's a dandy spot for the adventurous... right at the top of Lockinger Ridge. On another ridge, at the other end of the lot, there's a great spot that would have an easy driveway.

Lot 179: 23.0 ac $94,900 (lowest price in Ashton Woods!)
Property Description:
With a dramatic Southeast exposure, the view of South Branch Mountain from this lot looks into miles of the Ashton Woods property. Even the view from the road in front of Lot 179 takes your breath away! A gentle building site at almost 2000' elevation is 100' from the road and has an old logging road to easily access the site on a level grade. Most of the lot below the build site is fairly steep... generally a feature of those lots with great views.
A surprising aspect of this property is the unusual fieldstone wall that runs through it, just below the building site. Reminds me of the stone walls I grew up with in New England, but never see in the WV woods.

Rare.... Flat Land!Lot 70: 20.55 ac $110,000
Property Description:
Lot 70 is a beautiful flat expanse of gorgeous long-leaf Loblolly Pines running over one-thousand feet deep from the road. This is a young pine forest (11 years old), growing quickly and loaded with wildlife (just ask my dog!). This lot lays adjacent to my own beautiful Lot 71 property. Every inch of this property is easy to walk on and easy to camp on, making it truly special for both the young and not-so-young. The ground is padded with 6" of lush pine needles making it a pleasure to walk and sit on. This property is walking distance to the Trough View Road entrance to Ashton Woods and situated on a quiet cul-de-sac well off the main road. If you live here full-time, you'll recognize the convenience of being a short distance from the entry gate, mailboxes and trash collection. The very rear corner of the property has a mild slope and large hardwood trees and lays adjacent to a large farm.
See how flat this is on the TOPO MAP.
NEW!
Lot 313: 20.10 ac $112,000
Property Description:
Lot 313 is a "view-lot", meaning, the building sites are limited due to steep slopes, but the views are not. Tale a look at the TOPO MAP first and get the basic idea of the lay of the land. The building location will likely be about 100' from the road on the left (south) side of the lot, facing north, where the views are always clearest. The Build Site will need some clearing, as most do, to get your view. the driveway can be short and perfectly flat, if done correctly.
The lower parts of the property are loaded with old roads from previous logging days. Some will make nice hiking paths.
Lot 73: 20.4 ac $135,000 Pond, creek, driveway, gate, bridge!
Property Description:
Here's one of those rare ones that everyone keeps asking about! Lot 73 has a long driveway, winding throughout he property from the entrance gate at the end of Loblolly Drive, past the pond, through the field below the pond, then crossing the concrete-topped road across Sawmill Run. From the creek, the driveway then gently climbs a small ridge to the likely building site at the top, in the woods. Total distance is about 1200'. How's that for privacy! All this comes in a property just 1/2 mile from the Trough View Road security gate, mailboxes, etc. This would be especially convenient for those planning to live full-time in Ashton Woods, as I am. Here's two more shots of Sawmill Run after a March rain.
Here's the TOPO MAP so you can see how all this lays out. If interested in this one, you'll need to see it quickly. Ponds and creeks are in high demand!

$148,000 Spectacular Views!Property Description:
Close to the top of the mountain, at 2800', where the air is thin and cool, this is the view from the edge of the road along the top of the lot.... 2000 feet down to the valley floor below! Take a look at this view with fog in the valley below. Seller has priced this to go and is even willing to make a huge sacrifice if you buy this WITH the adjoining Lot 255. Truly stupendous views from this property, totally unobstructed by trees. Old logging road runs along face of property at top and is perfectly drivable... this will be your driveway. Camp or park your camper there (campers cannot be permanent, tho). Just one mile up the PRIVATE road, you can access over 10,000 acres of State Public Hunting Land at a very private entry point. Guaranteed cool summer temperatures (yes, at 2800', even with global warming!), good breezes and even mind-boggling displays of nighttime stars, for the astronomer. Great roads border this land. I can email plats, topo map, covenants, perc test, whatever, but you'll have to come to the mountains to see this property! Well worth the trip, if the view is your goal.
Here's the TOPO MAP including both lots. It would appear that the best building site might be at the top of the lot, near Lot 255.

Property Description:
HUGE property... 30 ac of open fields, gentle slopes, great mountain views, hardwoods & pines, with a clear stream that runs 1800' from end to end of the property.

Located 1.5 miles from the West Gate (very convenient). Gentle, grassy building site with scattered mature trees, faces the mountains to the west. You can turn this land into whatever you want... but first you need to see it!

Beautiful build site overlooking a 100' deep ravine cutting through the far side of this lot. Build on a broad flat area at the very edge of the ravine. Just far enough from the road to guarantee absolute privacy, but without the need for a long driveway. Spectacular colors in the Fall from the large oaks surrounding the build site.

About Ashton Woods Property in General:
About a 4-8 minute drive (from Ashton Woods' 3 gated exits) to public access points on the South Branch of the Potomac River for canoing, hiking and fishing. New 4-lane portions of Rt. 55 (Corridor H) cut drive times considerably for those coming from the DC area. All Ashton Woods lots are perked, surveyed and accessed by shale or gravel roads, all being upgraded to gravel in the coming 2 years. Phone and electric are already in front of most lots... coming soon to the rest. Electric lines to every lot were already paid for by the original buyers. Restrictive covenants that protect your property from mobile homes, commercially use, or from lots being subdivided any smaller than 20 acres etc., are summarized below. Full 10 page copy of the Ashton Woods Restrictive Covenants is available to potential buyers. I can email them to you.
Nearby Moorefield (5-8 miles from entrances) has a 24-hour Wal-Mart, numerous restaurants, a great Starbucks-like coffee shop, a six screen movie theater, and most other services are available nearby. Closest hospitals are in Petersburg and Romney, each about 20 miles.
HEY BUYERS! ALL these Ashton Woods properties are privately owned by different owners and are listed by Realtor Charlie Winfree. You are welcome to use the services of any other Realtor as a Buyer's Agent to help you make your purchase, but you MUST use their services to request additional information and to show these properties to you. That's how they earn their fees. I will email whatever they request, plus the proper access code through the gates. Ashton Woods is a Gated Community. You must have your Realtor with you to gain entry... codes found being abused have been canceled. I'm always ready, willing and able to show these properties to my Buyers. I know the owners, the land, the roads, the rules, the upcoming plans and I even know of some lots not on the market that may be negotiable.
I build these web pages for my Buyers! They're to save us both time and help you make the very best decisions. When I work directly with Buyers (as I do 90% of the time), I provide you with the same level of loyalty, service and confidentiality that I do for my Sellers. I do this by providing Dual Agency services, which, when done correctly, simply levels the playing field, giving equal representation to both Buyer and Seller. Nothing more, nothing less. Learn more about how that works HERE.
When working directly with me on these properties, I will provide you with maps, covenants, Association details, septic papers, comparable property information, current deeds, and much more, before you make your purchase, PLUS a 5' wide wall map of Ashton Woods at closing.
I am an owner in Ashton Woods and know it well. Working directly with me gives you the edge. I know every lot, every trail, every road, every bargain property, every view property, every type of property. I know where to put the driveway, the well, septic and the best place to build. I know the contractors who can provide you with a driveway, or a beautiful log home. I know the property corners and where the neighbors are likely to build on adjacent lots. I have the maps and plats of everything. I can quickly determine the lots you really need to see after we look at one or two and I get your feedback on those. We will waste no time together.
Last thoughts...
If you are serious about seeing/buying these properties, good shoes or boots and long pants are essential. Be certain to dress for the weather! You will NOT see these large properties effectively from the seat of a car. If you do not plan to make a purchase in the next few months, you should consider waiting until you are about ready to buy. The list of available lots changes weekly. When you do come out to look, be sure to bring your spouse or co-purchaser. They need to see everything you do.
Dog Owners: If your dog is likely to get along with my super-friendly female Husky, bring him or her along! The dogs love walking in the woods with us.

Lot
148: 20.15 ac Property Description: 20.15 acres of mountain land in Ashton Woods, featuring mixed hardwoods (mostly Sugar Maple) and Pine, at an elevation of 1400-1500'. About half the acreage is gently sloped, meaning potentially available for a building site and driveway, taking you far from the roads. This lot has an old logging road running along the main ridge line through the pines that could be the basis for a driveway or just a great trail for walking through the forest. It takes about ten minutes to walk from one road to the other through the lot, mostly on this old road, and it's a pleasant walk the whole way. This lot has good access from TWO roads and potential building sites are accessed from either road. Phone & electric lines border the lot on each side.

Lot 149: 20.1 ac
Property Description:
A level entry from Ridge View Road along an old logging road (photo) brings you to a flat build site at the edge of a bluff with an eastern view . Mixed pines and hardwoods cover most of the 8 fairly level acres on Lot 149. Build about anywhere within that large flat area, but the most eastern portion will allow for the best views. Plenty of space for other uses for the land, as well.
The old logging road connects with and continues through the nicest part of adjacent Lot 148. Lot 149 is ideal for camping. The 800' of old logging road makes a perfect driveway and gets you around the best of the acreage without having to cut but a few trees. The far north side of the property has a large power line that defines that 600' property line. It's not visible from any likely build site and no structures touch the property.

Few trees will need to be removed to build and enjoy the great views.
This property was sold by an astronomer who bought TWO lots with views like this. He decided to sell one in order to build on the other. Bring your telescope for this one! Here's the link for the TOPO MAP.

333: 20.5 ac Spectacular
Views!Property Description: The owners of Lot 333 have improved their property with a driveway, level building site, a finished and working well (400', 35 gal/min) and a finished and working septic system (3 bedroom). The only things they've left for you to do are to provide the home and enjoy the PANORAMIC VIEW (huge photo). See the TOPO MAP to understand this lot best. Most of the trees were retained around the building site. Far below the BUILDING SITE, a high-voltage power line runs through the lower part of the property, visible in winter, but out of view from the building site with leaves on trees. See PLAT HERE.
If the view is your priority, you need to see this one quickly! Here's a MORNING VIEW from #333 with fog in the valley just before sunlight arrives (thanks Andi).

Lot 202: 20.20 ac
Property Description:
Located in Hampshire County on top of Lockinger Ridge, facing West, Lot 202 has about one acre already cleared with a short, flat driveway to a great building site with a mountain view. See the TOPO MAP and you'll see the top of this property is fairly flat and gets steeper as it goes down the hill... perfect for a great view. Here's the WIDE wintertime view.
Owners moved to Atlanta and can no longer use this beautiful property, but are willing to allow their loss to be your gain! Buy this property if you want a short flat driveway, with a great year-round view, and relatively level building site, close to the road.

Lot 272: 20.13 ac
Property
Description:Right on top of the flat-topped South Branch Mountain, you can build your cabin on level ground at over 3000' altitude! Clear some of the trees for a 50-mile view to the west from 2200' above the valley floor. A few hundred feet from the road, the flat land drops off down to another flat area, then it runs down the mountain to another road, where there's a second potential building location. Enjoy cool temperatures, good summer breezes, pitch-black nighttime skies and winters for the adventurous at the top of the mountain. Ferns galore! Wildlife is everywhere! If you like to hike or hunt, you'll find the top corner of this property is exactly 207 feet from 10,675 acres of WV State public hunting land and hiking trails! Great road, good, flat road frontage. Walk across the road and you're there. A great road leads into the public area, but the "public" cannot access the public land from here... only Ashton Woods owners!

Lot 77: 20.51 ac 
Property
Description: Lot 77 has a bit of everything. Several acres in the front are mostly pines and level fields. In the rear of the property, there are several acres of hardwood forest bordering a year-round creek. A wooded hill rises 100' above the shaded creek. But most of the property is relatively level grassy fields with small pines and a few hardwood trees popping up here and there. The fields slope very gently down to the crystal-clear creek. Take a look at the TOPO MAP . Elevation is about 1100'. A home could be built about anywhere on this property. Probably the best spot would be at the top of the gentle rise, just behind the pine patch from the road, biggest windows facing South for the sunlight, or East toward the creek. This one's a peach!

Lot 55: 22.18 ac
Property Description:
Prepare yourself for 22 acres of pure natural beauty! The owners of this property will have their own park to enjoy! Over 1800 feet of crystal-clear waters of Clifford Hollow Run make up the rear boundary line for Lot 55. Laying to the side of the creek are about 12 of the prettiest flat to gently rolling acres you'll ever find. Through it all, runs an old logging road, for 1500' (shown as dotted line on the topo map). This wide-open maple-oak-hickory forest looks far more like a public park than a private land parcel.
The upland portion of the property is a pine forest on a gentle hilltop, 80' above the creek. Build your home here and overlook it all.
Here's the TOPO MAP. The creek runs along the entire eastern border.

This is the sort of property you want if you're tired of fooling with steep land and especially if you plan to live here full-time. A 20 AC PLAYGROUND!. A mix of hardwoods & pines. Some giant older trees at the far end of the property were forgotten by the loggers years ago. :-) From there, you could have 100% privacy and a nice view into a valley just south of this lot.

Lot 22: 20.31 ac
Property
Description:
FIRST thing to know about Lot 22 at Ashton Woods is how convenient it is to the new 4-lane Corridor-H (Route 55) highway! Just a half-mile off the highway to your new home in the woods. This lot already has a level driveway cut in to a cleared area of about an acre, opening up a terrific view of the mountains. The other 19 acres are all wooded with some pines but mostly deciduous trees. The center of the property has a small stream bed running through it, which may have water part, but not all of the year. The other side of the property also has some very nice land for camping or building with great views.

Lot 331: 20.22 ac Property Description:
This 20 ac wooded lot comprises the entirety of a flat-topped knoll just below the top of the mountain at about 2350' elevation... about 1500' above the valley floor. Sweeping views of the mountains are to be had with some modest trimming of the trees (no need to bulldoze the forest, tho). Just one lot away (past home for sale for $1.2 mil), you can access 10,675 acres of state land... hike, hunt, camp! The developer split the similar adjacent knoll into two lots and sold both, each for about the price of this entire knoll. Other knolls at this elevation sold for up to twice this price.
See the TOPO MAP and you'll appreciate the way this one was laid out.

Larger than average, even by huge Ashton Woods standards, this 35 acre property also runs right up to 10' from the very top of Lockinger Ridge. The pre-approved building site sits on the ridge on the north corner of the property, with views to both the east and west. Further up the ridge, there's a dandy spot for the adventurous... right at the top of Lockinger Ridge. On another ridge, at the other end of the lot, there's a great spot that would have an easy driveway.
