Welcome to Laurel Ridge — A Sanctuary Above the Clouds. Tucked gracefully into the emerald folds of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this exquisite custom-built post and beam residence invites you to experience life at a higher elevation—both literally and spiritually. Here in beautiful Laurel Ridge, just minutes from the vibrant town of Black Mountain, nature and craftsmanship come together in perfect harmony. From the moment you arrive, the home reveals itself as a masterpiece of mountain architecture—warm wood beams, thoughtful design, and walls of glass framing breathtaking long-range views that stretch endlessly across the horizon. These are views to savor in every season, from the soft greens of spring to the fiery palette of autumn, all visible from expansive decks designed for lingering mornings and starlit evenings. At the heart of the home, a Swedish-style Tulikivi fireplace stands as both a sculptural centerpiece and a marvel of efficiency. Ingeniously designed to heat the entire home with minimal wood, it offers a gentle, steady warmth that feels as timeless as the mountains themselves. With four bedrooms and three and a half baths, this residence offers space for family and friends to gather in comfort and style. Every detail speaks of intention—custom craftsmanship, soaring ceilings, and a sense of serenity that permeates every room. The home is connected to the community water system yet also boasts its own private well, while a 1,000-gallon propane tank fuels the stove, dryer, water heater, and a cozy lower-level fireplace—ensuring both independence and convenience. Outdoors, a world of mountain living awaits. Beautiful decks on the main and lower level invite effortless entertaining against a backdrop of rolling ridgelines and shifting skies. This is more than a home—it’s a retreat. A place where morning mist gives way to sunlit vistas, and where the crackle of a single log in the fireplace becomes the soundtrack to your mountain life. Welcome to Laurel Ridge. Welcome home.
