One of the most appealing aspects of this property is its prime location on the "Atlanta side" of the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau, offering excellent accessibility year-round. You're positioned almost exactly halfway between Highlands and **Dillard-just about 15 minutes to each. The lot also enjoys easy paved road access directly from North Carolina Highway 106, making it a very convenient property to reach. Perched at a high elevation, the property enjoys refreshing cool temperatures and stunning western and southwestern mountain views, creating the ideal backdrop for colorful sunset skies. The land features a gentle, build-friendly slope that allows for multiple building possibilities while maintaining a peaceful, natural setting. Several important improvements are already in place to make building easier, including a private well, a roughed-in driveway, and a 4-bedroom septic permit previously on file with Macon County (expired July 2025). Minutes away, you'll find some of the area's favorite spots including Magliocca's Ristorante, The Vineyard at High Holly, and Fire Mountain Resort. Outdoor adventure is also close by at Highlands Aerial Park for ziplining and Highlands Outpost, home to the Scaly Screamer mountain coaster as well as seasonal snow tubing. Spend the day enjoying the charm, dining, and boutiques of Highlands, then easily head down the mountain to Clayton or Dillard for convenient shopping, groceries, and everyday essentials. The property itself is rich with native ferns, lush mountain flora, and a natural spring that gently winds through the landscape, creating a peaceful environment where you can truly immerse yourself in nature while still enjoying convenient access to nearby amenities. With nearly four acres, sunset views, easy paved access, and key infrastructure already in place, this property provides an exceptional opportunity to build your dream mountain home while enjoying both the serenity of nature and the convenience of nearby towns. Come walk the land, breathe in the cool mountain air, and imagine the possibilities this special property offers. ## Location - **Address:** Eastside Duck Mountain Road, Scaly Mountain, NC 28775 - **County:** Macon - **Coordinates:** 35.023603, -83.301489 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=35.023603,-83.301489 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Cristina Vives · **License:** 351678 - **Brokerage:** Meadows Mountain Realty - **Broker Phone:** (828) 526-1717 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/Eastside-Duck-Mountain-Rd_Scaly-Mountain_NC_28775_M99549-50813?f=listhub&s=HCBORNC&m=1002688&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2205237928r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f288643197r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f695185675r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3407390164r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2273753686r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f1020706496r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f533265662r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2677187875r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f740628398r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f4026559889r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3150245651r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2865342030r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2680005825r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f603865203r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3299325239r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3777798209r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3655831071r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f3453020189r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f675318128r.jpg) ![Eastside Duck Mountain Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/8ced3e8b7fbb3d0fd45be4399582dfe1l-f2466468744r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 1002688 | **Updated:** 2026-10-24 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Highlands Cashiers Board of Realtors.
