About this home
Custom-built with an unmistakable sense of craftsmanship, this striking mountain home immediately stands apart through its thoughtful design, dramatic presence, and distinctive architectural details. Set within the elevated Silent Forest neighborhood, the property enjoys a peaceful sense of privacy among the trees, along with seasonal mountain views that add depth and beauty to the setting. Statement doors, warm wood accents, and carefully considered finishes create a home that feels both refined and highly individual from the moment you step inside. Designed for easy one-level living, it offers 1,435 square feet of finished space with two bedrooms and two full baths in a desirable split-bedroom layout. Ten-foot ceilings and expansive windows bring in exceptional natural light, while the kitchen serves as a true focal point with contrasting cabinetry, generous counter space, stainless steel appliances, and an impressive oversized island designed for gathering and casual dining. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a spacious bath with dual sinks and a tiled tub and shower. Below, the approximately 816-square-foot unfinished basement is already plumbed and features private exterior access, creating excellent potential for future expansion, recreation space, a workshop, or second living quarters. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with multiple deck spaces, including a covered area with a retractable awning, providing a peaceful place to relax or entertain while taking in the wooded surroundings and mountain views. An attached two-car garage, stamped concrete driveway, and landscaped grounds complete the property, all with convenient access to Canton, Waynesville, and Asheville.
