About this home
More photos to come. Originally envisioned as a single-family homesite spanning two separate parcels, this exceptional 3.5-acre Winchester Creek retreat has been thoughtfully renewed, expanded, and reimagined into a truly special mountain sanctuary. Perched above the surrounding landscape and tucked away at the very end of the road, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, serenity, and long-range mountain and pastoral views. With both the main residence and the newly completed (2024) fully climate-controlled multi-use guest quarters—featuring an oversized RV garage, two-car tandem garage, workshop space, and a beautifully finished loft apartment—this property provides remarkable flexibility for a variety of lifestyles. Multi-generational living, extended-stay guests, or short-term rental opportunities are all viable options thanks to the two separate structures that together offer a total of 3 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and two food-prep areas, including a full kitchen in the main home and a kitchenette in the loft apartment.
The main home is warm and inviting, designed for comfort and year-round enjoyment. Large windows frame the surrounding natural beauty, while the expansive outdoor deck becomes a true extension of the living space. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee as the sun rises over the mountains or unwinding in the evening beside the huge stone gas fireplace, the setting is peaceful, restorative, and unmistakably Western North Carolina. The guest quarters—completed in 2024—add an entirely new dimension to the property. The oversized RV garage accommodates even large Class A motorhomes, with room in the adjoining 2-car tandem garage space for tools, equipment, or recreational gear. Above, the loft apartment offers a bright, modern living space with its own kitchenette and full bath. The apartment's elevated position captures beautiful natural light and views of the surrounding landscape.
Designed with reliability and peace of mind in mind, the property includes two whole-house standby generators, ensuring uninterrupted comfort in every season. The land itself is a highlight—gently rolling, beautifully maintained, and bordered by the natural beauty that defines the Winchester Creek area. Step outside your door and explore the neighborhood’s scenic trails, streams, and waterfalls, or take on the adventure of hiking to the iconic Lyn Lowry Cross. Wildlife sightings, star-filled night skies, and the soothing quiet of nature create an atmosphere that feels worlds away, yet the conveniences of town are remarkably close.
Despite its private setting, the location is exceptionally convenient. You’re just 10 minutes from downtown Waynesville, with its vibrant arts scene, local restaurants, and year-round events. Asheville, the Biltmore Estate, and the Asheville Regional Airport are all within a 30-minute drive, making travel and day trips effortless. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being only one mile from the Blue Ridge Parkway, one of America’s most treasured scenic byways and 45 minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, full of water sports, ziplining, mountain biking, hiking and more. Charming mountain towns including Sylva, Highlands, Franklin, Bryson City, and Cherokee are all within easy reach, offering endless opportunities for exploration, dining, shopping, and recreation.
With an extensive list of recent improvements and upgrades, this remarkable property offers a rare blend of comfort, versatility, and natural beauty. Whether you’re seeking a private mountain retreat, a multi-generational compound, an income-producing property, or a home base for adventure, this Winchester Creek sanctuary delivers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the very best of mountain living in Western North Carolina.
Each property is a separate parcel. Shared well agreement in place. No shared road agreement (small portion of road is private)....
