About this home
Luxury meets nature in this extraordinary creekside retreat, where timeless craftsmanship and modern comfort come together in one unforgettable mountain property. Nestled beside over 375 feet of Little Phoenix Creek and bordering nearly 380 acres of permanently protected Nature Conservancy land, this beautifully restored home offers exceptional privacy just five miles from the heart of charming downtown West Jefferson. Originally built with character and redesigned from the ground up, every finish, fixture, and space was intentionally selected to create a home that feels both elevated and effortlessly livable. Offering 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a spacious entertainment/game room that adds valuable living space, the home is equally suited for everyday living, hosting family and friends, or welcoming guests. The beautifully appointed kitchen features new appliances, custom cabinetry, and quality finishes throughout, while a custom built entry provides the perfect space for skis, boots, and outdoor gear after a day exploring the High Country. Expansive outdoor living areas invite you to relax, entertain, and enjoy the peaceful sounds of Little Phoenix Creek as it winds through the property. Offered fully furnished (excluding a few personal items), this turnkey home includes all new windows, brand-new electrical and insulation, a new roof installed in 2025, two zoned Wi-Fi capable HVAC systems, a dedicated mini-split for the bonus space, two LED electric fireplace inserts, additional electrical upgrades, and a covered concrete patio beneath the rear deck with exterior lighting installed for the backyard and creek. Whether you're searching for a full time residence, a mountain retreat, or a turnkey short term rental, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, natural beauty, and investment potential, and all just minutes from shopping, dining, The Twickenham House, and the small town charm that has made West Jefferson one of North Carolina's most beloved mountain destinations....
