YOUR VERY OWN PRIVATE SANCTUARY Hidden among the trees on 2.26 acres with a creek, this special hilltop home offers something increasingly hard to find: true privacy and the feeling of being completely surrounded by nature, while still being just minutes from Hendersonville. The journey home is part of the experience. Wind your way down into Laurel Forest, off a quiet no-outlet road, and follow the long private driveway to your own secluded retreat. From the house, trees stretch in every direction, with wildflowers, birds, deer, and the song of the creek below. Inside, the warmth of the natural setting continues. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the beauty of the surrounding forest into the vaulted great room, where a beautiful stone fireplace creates a natural gathering place. Wood floors, a formal dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook and pantry, and a spacious primary suite on the main level make this home both welcoming and wonderfully livable. Step outside onto the partially covered back deck and you may find yourself wanting to stay awhile. Morning coffee among the trees. Dinner outside. An evening listening to the creek. There is a sense of peace here that is hard to describe until you experience it. The lower level offers its own private entrance, with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, a generous family room with a second stone fireplace, and plenty of storage. Whether used for guests, family, creative space, exercise, a home office, or simply room to spread out, the lower level adds tremendous flexibility. And while this home feels tucked away, you're not far from the things you love about Western North Carolina. Downtown Hendersonville is approximately six miles away, with the French Broad River, Mills River, and the Ecusta Recreational Trail all closeby. This is more than a house in the woods. It is a place to breathe, slow down, and feel at home in nature. A private sanctuary on 2.26 acres, surrounded by trees, wildlife, and the sounds of the creek, with all the beauty of Western North Carolina right outside your door.
