About this home
Immerse yourself in authentic Appalachian craftsmanship with this custom-built Bryson City mountain retreat, set on nearly two sunlit acres just one mile from trails entering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Spanning over 3,000 square feet, this residence seamlessly blends historic architectural provenance with modern mountain luxury. The heart of the home centers around rich, reclaimed wood floors salvaged from a historic South Carolina cotton mill, custom wormy chestnut display cabinetry in the family room, and a dramatic focal feature recut from a salvaged local schoolhouse door frame. The open kitchen boasts bespoke (this is a word I learned from watching "Money for Nothing") cabinetry and a dedicated morning coffee bar, flowing effortlessly out to an expansive 500+ square foot covered porch where you can unwind to the sounds of a mountain stream across the way. A spiral staircase ascends to a versatile loft retreat, while a fully equipped, private second living quarters provides the ideal layout for multi-generational living, extended guests, or an in-law suite. Complete with an expansive four-car garage for gear, trail vehicles, and workshop space, this estate offers an extraordinary sanctuary in Swain County—where over 65% of the county is protected National Park land.
