Just 20 minutes from Burnsville and 30 minutes to Weaverville, this property offers the perfect balance of mountain seclusion with convenient access to shopping, dining, and local culture. From the moment you arrive, the home’s striking exterior sets the tone. Board and batten rough-sawn wood siding blends seamlessly with the natural setting, complemented by cultured stone foundation walls and beautifully landscaped retaining walls. Expansive decks, porches and patio totaling more than 2,600 sq ft of outdoor living space.

The grand entry features an imported 42-inch Andean walnut front door with matching side panels, opening to a light-filled interior with soaring 10-foot ceilings on both the main and lower levels. Andersen 400 series casement windows and Andersen sliding glass doors frame the panoramic mountain scenery, flooding the home with natural light and highlighting the spectacular views from nearly every room. Inside, fine finishes abound, including 5 ½-inch oak hardwood flooring, a cultured stone gas log fireplace in the great room, and open-concept living designed for both comfort and elegance. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream with custom-built cabinetry, premium KitchenAid appliances, built-in refrigerator, 5-burner gas cooktop, double oven, microwave, and dishwasher. Sleek granite countertops flow throughout the kitchen and bathrooms, tying together the luxury aesthetic. A custom-designed wine room with Sub-Zero wine cooler adds a distinctive touch for entertaining. Outdoor living is elevated to an art form. The rear patio spans over 936 sq ft and features a stone fireplace, Blaze summer kitchen with granite counters, LED patio lighting, and outdoor sconces, making it an ideal setting for gatherings large or small. Whether dining under the stars, cozying up by the fire, or simply soaking in the majestic mountain views, this space is designed for year-round enjoyment. Thoughtful details ensure comfort and efficiency, including a Trane heat pump with gas backup for both the main and lower levels, a Rinnai tankless water heater, and superior insulation.
