Imagine building your perfect home or tranquil retreat on this ready-to-go 3-acre lot in Apple Mountain West. What truly sets this property apart are the pre-approved conventional septic and well permits for a 4-bedroom home, which are fully transferable to you. This means significantly less red tape and a much smoother path to breaking ground on your permanent residence or peaceful vacation escape. Access is a breeze, with a paved road leading directly to the property. You'll find yourself surrounded by a beautifully wooded, natural mountain setting characteristic of this desirable area. The lot also backs up to a larger wooded area, giving you an enhanced sense of privacy and seclusion. For the outdoor enthusiast, this location is a dream come true. You'll be moments from Shenandoah National Park and George Washington National Forest, opening up endless possibilities for hiking, tubing down the Shenandoah River, or simply soaking in the scenic views along Skyline Drive. Yet, despite its natural charm, you're only 8 miles from Front Royal's convenient shopping and dining, with easy access to I-66 for commuters.
