Perched high in the Blue Ridge with sweeping southwest-facing vistas, this mountain home commands long-range views of the Appalachian range that must be seen to be believed — and the sunsets are simply extraordinary. Lovingly maintained as a private second residence, this is not just a house. It is a fully curated, artistically appointed retreat and the landscape with stacked stone is as much a feature as the architecture itself. Every principal room — kitchen, living room, rec room and primary suite with its own balcony— frames the mountains as living art. The large, open kitchen features a walk-in pantry and views while you cook. The hardwood floors throughout give warmth accompanied by the heat from the wood-burning stove that anchors the main living space, radiating ambiance through cool mountain evenings. The primary suite is its own sanctuary, with a private balcony perfectly positioned to watch the sun sink below the Appalachian ridgeline, a spacious spa bath with soaking tub, and a large walk-in shower. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed Jack and Jill full bath. The lower level offers exceptional flexibility — currently used as a second living room but equally suited as a game room, media room, or studio. The half bath on this level is already plumbed for a shower, making a full bath conversion straightforward. Outside, thoughtfully designed natural contours are complemented by stacked rock and right near the side door is a level fire pit area. A single-car garage plus attached carport provide ample covered parking and storage. The majority of the artwork and furnishings throughout the home are available to convey, allowing the next owner to step directly into a fully realized mountain retreat. The baby grand piano — a signature piece of this artistic home — is negotiable. This is a true one-of-a-kind artistic masterpiece for the creative nature loving spirit. Located just 4 minutes from the charming university town of Mars Hill and only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, with its renowned dining, arts, music, and outdoor adventure. The elevation, the silence, the stars — without sacrificing access to world-class amenities.

Hey YOU. Yeah… YOU. Snap out of it for a second, will ya? How many properties have you clicked through by now? How many tabs open? How many “maybe this is the one” moments before moving onto the next shiny listing five minutes later? At some point you have to stop scrolling and actually put your boots on the ground. Because finding THE ONE? It rarely happens by accident. You have to be just crazy enough to go looking for it. That’s where we come in. We don’t sell property. We matchmake. We help guide people out of the noise and toward something that actually feels like them. Something that makes their shoulders drop the second they step onto the land. Now… back to the regularly scheduled programming. What if the dream was never the big house? What if it was the silence? Somewhere along the way, life became notifications, passwords, meetings, traffic, and staring at little glowing rectangles while the seasons quietly slipped by outside the window. Days started feeling fast. Loud. Artificial. Like we were all sprinting somewhere without ever asking where we were actually going. Then you come here. 94 acres tucked into the mountains of Hot Springs where the roads turn to gravel, the air smells like rain and leaves, and the noise of the world fades into the background like a bad dream you finally woke up from. Standing on this land feels strangely human. Primitive in the best possible way. East to southeast-facing ridges greet the morning sun while old logging roads wind throughout the property like veins carrying stories from another era. Multiple springs still flow here. Quietly. Steadily. Long before any of us arrived and long after we’re gone. This has been family land. Never offered publicly before. And you can feel it. The stories here aren’t manufactured marketing lines written in some downtown office tower. They’re real. Walking to school from this mountain. Doing homework by candlelight before electricity reached these hills. Gardens. Wood smoke. Hard winters. Families gathered around supper after long days of work. The kind of life people romanticize now because deep down they know something important was lost along the way. And maybe that’s what you’ve been searching for without even realizing it. Not just acreage. Not just another investment. A reset button. There are multiple build sites scattered throughout the property depending on your vision. A cabin tucked into the folds of the mountain. A family homestead. A retreat compound. A place to disappear for a while and remember who you were before the world got so loud. Carl Sagan once described Earth as a “pale blue dot” suspended in a sunbeam. Tiny. Temporary. Fragile. Standing on this mountain, you start realizing how little of the noise actually matters. Maybe the goal was never to climb higher in the rat race. Maybe the goal was simply to step out of it. Come walk it with us. We’ll point out the springs, the old roads, the stories, and maybe even a few other brave souls who stepped away from the noise and found their version of IT out here in these mountains. Maybe your story becomes the next one told around the fire someday. See you in the woods.

The area below the road is sloping just below the road, but then levels out into another large, usable, buildable area that could be subdivided or used for raising animals. Electrical service is already at the property saving a big expense. A perfect spot for your log cabin in the mountains with long range views.
