About this home

Located behind the gates of Lithia Ridge in the Brushy Mountains, this custom brick home sits on 2.38 private acres at an elevation that delivers some of the most impressive long-range, multilayered mountain views in the region. This is a home designed around its setting — expansive windows and skylights pull the landscape inside, framing views that change with every season and every time of day. The main living area offers hardwood flooring, granite countertops, and a gas log fireplace, with both the covered front porch and screened-in back porch positioned to make the most of the surrounding scenery. Whether you're having morning coffee or watching the sun drop behind the ridgeline, the outdoor spaces feel like a natural extension of the home. The finished basement adds flexible living space suited for a recreation room, home office, or guest retreat. A two-car main-level garage plus a basement garage and workshop provide serious storage and workspace — rare at this elevation. All of this sits within easy reach of Wilkesboro shopping and dining, offering the privacy of mountain living without the remoteness. If you've been looking for a property that genuinely delivers on views, privacy, and quality — this is worth seeing in person.
