About this home
Experience the extraordinary beauty of Western North Carolina from this exceptional mountain estate, where vast, sweeping long range views stretch across layers of the Blue Ridge Mountains as far as the eye can see. Privately situated on 7.68 unrestricted acres, this stunning log home offers a rare combination of breathtaking scenery, seclusion, and timeless mountain craftsmanship. A private drive leads to the residence, surrounded by natural beauty and offering an impressive sense of privacy in nearly every direction.
Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, and a dramatic wall of windows create an unforgettable first impression, perfectly framing the expansive mountain vistas beyond. The open concept living areas are filled with natural light, allowing the surrounding landscape to become an integral part of the home's design. With 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 2,447 square feet of finished living space, the home offers both comfort and character. The main level primary suite provides a private retreat with an en-suite bath and generous closet space, while the thoughtfully designed main level laundry room offers abundant storage and workspace.
Expansive outdoor decking provides the perfect setting to take in the magnificent views, from peaceful mornings overlooking the mountains to evenings watching the changing colors of the distant ridgelines. The 1,476-square-foot unfinished basement presents an exceptional opportunity to expand the home's living space. With generous square footage, interior and exterior access, and portions already framed, this versatile lower level offers excellent potential to be finished into additional living quarters, a spacious recreation room, home theater, guest accommodations, or a private retreat. Whether envisioned as an entertainment space or additional living area, the basement provides an opportunity to further enhance the home's functionality and value.
Recent improvements include a new HVAC system and well pump in 2026, updated French doors and window screens, and extensive tree clearing to further enhance the already spectacular views. Additional improvements to the driveway, decking, and landscaping reflect continued care of the property.
With 7.68 unrestricted acres, no HOA, and exceptional privacy, this property offers a level of freedom and seclusion that is increasingly difficult to find. Ideally situated near the Blue Ridge Parkway and an abundance of outdoor recreation, the home combines the tranquility of a private mountain retreat with convenient access to the best of Western North Carolina. More than just a mountain home, this is a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where breathtaking panoramic views, unmatched natural beauty, and complete serenity create a setting that is truly unforgettable....
