About this home

Exceptional year-round mountain and French Broad River views set the stage for this remarkable 20-acre Western North Carolina retreat. Behind a gated entry, the property offers an extraordinary combination of acreage, natural beauty, privacy and thoughtful design. From the moment you arrive, the setting takes center stage, with expansive views stretching across the surrounding mountains and down toward the French Broad River. Hiking trails wind through the acreage and provide access to the river, creating endless opportunities to explore and enjoy the property’s beautiful natural surroundings. Inside, the quality and craftsmanship are immediately apparent. Eight-inch old-growth Douglas Fir wide-plank floors, Douglas Fir beams and island top, solid wood doors, soaring 10- and 14-foot ceilings and beautiful dry-stack stonework lend warmth, character and a timeless quality throughout the home. The beautifully appointed kitchen features premium Sub-Zero, Wolf and Bosch appliances, granite countertops, a striking 36-inch soapstone sink, custom cabinetry and a butler’s pantry. A dry-stack stone fireplace anchors the living area and provides an inviting gathering place while echoing the natural materials found throughout the property. Thoughtfully designed to embrace its spectacular setting, the home offers an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. The primary suite opens to a private deck, an ideal place to begin or end the day surrounded by mountain and river views, and features a generous walk-in closet, custom-tiled shower and heated bath floor. A screened porch, covered deck, stone patio and walkway, timber-frame pergola and stone-terraced garden create a collection of outdoor spaces for dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings and changing seasons. Equally impressive is the level of infrastructure incorporated into the property. Geothermal heating and cooling provide efficient year-round comfort, complemented by two-zone heating and cooling, a whole-house generator with a buried 1,000-pound propane tank, two hot-water tanks, and a hot-water circulator. Six-inch insulated exterior walls, a sealed crawlspace with dehumidifier, whole-house humidifier/dehumidifier, and insulated garage reflect the attention given to comfort and efficiency. An insulated well house includes a whole-house water filtration system and water softener, while underground utilities help preserve the unspoiled setting and views. High-speed French Broad fiber optic internet brings modern connectivity to this private retreat, making remote work effortless. A spare room in the garage with its mini split provides additional flexibility for a studio, workshop, exercise space or other use. A metal roof and Hardie board and dry-stack stone exterior further speak to the substantial construction and thoughtful selection of materials. Twenty private acres, extraordinary year-round mountain and French Broad River views, river access, exceptional craftsmanship and modern infrastructure come together to create a property that captures the best of Western North Carolina living. This is a private, gated property. Please respect the owners’ privacy and schedule an appointment to experience the home and grounds. No drive-bys, please.
