Huge trees and a building site, straddling the ridge line, offering a "killer view" over ALL of Franklin!  We are currently doing a lot of road work as we extend Featherstone Drive another 1/2 mile to service Phase III.  Plenty of room to build your large dream house, a garage - shop and even a garden.
                                                                                                                                                                                   

#36  3.73 +/- ac     Awesome view --   End of road privacy -- Lg. acreage -- $ 129,900

ON SALE! Featured Parcel...Best Deal SALE PRICE: $99,900

Absolute killer view with all the end of road privacy you could want. It is also one of our featured parcels now offered at our "Best Deal" SALE PRICE!!! You've got to take a look! As you stand on this lot and look at the view, remember, there will be NO future homes built below you in Featherstone. In fact, you will be very hard pressed to EVER see ANY of your neighbors' houses, even when the leaves are off in the dead of winter. That is the beauty of a large parcel like this one. No problem driving any vehicle to #36, where you'll find a large 100' x 55' (+/-) cleared turn-around area, offering a great building site with ample parking. Refer to the last page of this price list to see how to build on a slope. Cloud Dancer Road is being finalized and will be paved in the future.

#38 & 37 5.08 ac   LARGE PARCEL - "KILLER" VIEW - 2 House Sites -- $ 209,900

ON SALE! Featured Parcel...Best Deal SALE PRICE: $159,900

The largest new parcel in Featherstone, with privacy and stunning view! The driveway and turn-around (house site) on #38 are now finished, so drive down and take a look. You'll have no problem turning around to come back out. It's deceptive from the main road, so you need to stand on the edge of the large house site and look further down the hill to see just how large of an area you'll have to build on. Also see the last page of this price list for how to build on slopes. We've even landscaped an evergreen barrier along the main road for extra year around, future privacy. If you finish filling in the gully (towards #39) using the dirt you'll have from digging your basement, you'll gain even more land all the way over to the rock outcroppings... a great, private siting area to watch the sunsets! Your home will sit high atop a gentle knoll with plenty of room for a large house & garage. LIMITED TIME - SPECIAL OFFER: For now, (util we start completion of #37) we are combining Parcels #37 and 38 to give #38 offering both as one large package. You get two separate building sites - two separate accesses. Split with a friend or relative? It's very easy to build a private walk path to connect the two sites while still providing each with its own individual and private access.

Where else can you find 5 acres, a killer view, and 2 house sites along with all the quality that Featherstone has to offer?
Will also sell separately: #38 - 2.69 acres @109,900 and #37 - 2.39 acres @74,900 (as is)

WATER! WHAT ABOUT DRINKING WATER? WATER!

Water has become a huge worry throughout the southeast. We take this problem seriously. Featherstone is serviced by a total of 6 independent, shared well, deep water drinking systems. As for Phase III -- we have a total of 4 wells, two of which have in excess of 50 gallons per minute of flow! We use only 2 1/4" HDPE pipe for delivery to a tap, located where each lot joins to the main roads. This is the toughest and best pipe you can buy. Hedden Brothers Well Drilling engineers all systems and provides full service. For complete information on our water systems, please call for details. Also see "Serious Questions for Serious Land Buyers" flyer included in this information package.

HOW DO YOU GAUGE SUCCESS?...  BUILD OUT by OWNERS! 

The actual building taking place by owners is a good indicator of the quality and success of any community.  Look at the number of houses finished (7), those currently under construction (4), and those planned to start soon (4).  That's a total of 15.  Keep in mind that we sold the first parcels in Featherstone just over 3 years ago!  Also, look at the quality and size of the homes (2,000 - 5,500 sq. ft.).  Every home is being built by the owner - not the developer; except Parcel # 33, which will be the 5,500 sq. ft. Timber Frame residence of Featherstone Developers Bill & Cheryl Vernon.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
IMPORTANT:
From time to time, we will be installing underground power & water on certain roads along with general construction. This will result in some dirt lightly covering the gravel. If the roads are wet and you see dirt covering the gravel, be very careful, as it will be slick as ice. It is best to avoid these areas when wet. They will be no problem as long as roads are dry.

REMEMBER...This is a construction area, and you are responsible for your own safety. You are welcome to explore all of Featherstone by car or on foot, but you do so at your own risk.

SALES & MARKETING PHILOSOPHY:

My sales and marketing approach is simple...

  • I keep my prices low and as close to the bone as I possibly can.
  • I offer my parcels at even lower "pre-completion prices" to reward those land buyers who are willing to get out and do a little footwork and hiking. Buyers who have the vision to see what the completed parcel and community will look like can save big money by purchasing while under the "pre-completion" pricing structure. Once I final dress each parcel, the price goes up!
  • I market and sell Featherstone parcels myself, saving sales commissions, which also helps me to off the very best prices possible. Compare us to ANY others and you'll see...
  • Featherstone is one of, if not THE, most successful community in Macon County -- possibly in all of Western North Carolina!
