$4,395,000

Enter into a home unlike any other in Western North Carolina, where reclaimed history and forward-thinking design come together on a private two-acre homestead at 4,320 feet. Wrapped on every side by conservation land, with western views that stretch toward the horizon and shift with the light all day long, this is a home that feels less built than discovered, as if from the mountain itself. At the heart of the home is its reclaimed sinker cypress, found throughout the structural timbers and beyond. Recovered from river bottoms by the legendary "swamp men," whose work has been featured on the History Channel, this cypress spent more than a century submerged in water before being rediscovered. That century underwater transformed the wood, giving it a density, color, durability and richness that simply cannot be replicated and a story that few homes can tell. Douglas fir, heart pine and cypress carry that craftsmanship to the siding, soffits, fascia, trim, doors, floors and porches, while reclaimed white oak cabinetry and high-end Marvin window sash frames continue it inside. Locally sourced mica, feldspar and quartz form the rock walls, sidewalks and exterior stone features that root the home firmly in its mountain setting. This is also one of the most thoughtfully engineered homes you will find anywhere in the region. LEED Gold Certified and Energy Star Qualified, it runs on a sophisticated geothermal and solar thermal system providing radiant floor heat and domestic hot water, supported by a south-facing solar PV and hot water collector grid with an inverter. An ERV fresh air system keeps indoor air exceptionally clean, rainwater harvesting sustains the landscaping and an EcoShake roof of recycled wood shake shingles reinforced with vinyl and cellulose fiber tops it all off. Should the grid ever go down, a whole-home Generac generator, bedroom LP heatilators, a floor-to-ceiling wood burning fireplace, a pellet stove and a manual wellhead pump ensure the home keeps running without interruption. Four ensuite bedrooms, a private office, an exercise room, a cedar sauna, a wine cellar, an elevator and a dog shower round out a layout built for comfort and everyday life, while thoughtful accessibility features, including an ingress and egress ramp, elevator access to all floors and a curbless shower, make this home as livable as it is beautiful. Upstairs, the guest suites open onto Juliet balconies, framing the views from the moment you wake. Go outside and the experience continues. A screened porch with a built-in grill, a screened deck, an outdoor shower, an outdoor fireplace and a stone and brick paver veranda overlook a rare flat, fenced backyard and a sprawling terrace level made for gathering. A fully functional professional greenhouse rounds out the grounds, ready for whatever you choose to grow. Above the garage, a newly renovated ensuite guest suite offers a private retreat for visitors, while the terrace level features a beautifully appointed second kitchen, newly completed by Clark and Leatherwood, opening the door to true multigenerational living. All of this sits within Balsam Mountain Preserve, one of Western North Carolina's most acclaimed mountain communities. Thousands of acres of protected forestland, miles of hiking trails, an Arnold Palmer Signature golf course, an equestrian center, a wellness center and a clubhouse with fine dining and panoramic views await just beyond your door, alongside a vibrant calendar of community life built around conservation and connection. This is a home that must be experienced in person to be fully understood and once you do, it is impossible to forget.

Step outside, breathe deep, and let the mountains do the talking. Perched high above the valley in the coveted Beechwood community, this extraordinary log home was built around one thing: the view. From sunrise coffee on the deck to evenings spent watching the mountains fade into layers of blue, every day here feels like a retreat. The moment you walk through the door, your eyes are drawn to the soaring wall of windows framing seemingly endless ridgelines. Vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, rich wood interiors, and a stunning stone fireplace create the warm, authentic mountain atmosphere buyers dream about but rarely find. The expansive covered decks are where you'll spend most of your time. Start your mornings with coffee as the sun rises over the peaks. Enjoy cool summer breezes while dining outdoors. End the day with a glass of wine as the sky puts on a show and the lights begin to twinkle in the valley below. Rain or shine, these outdoor living spaces invite you to slow down and savor every season in the mountains. Inside, the spacious main level offers comfortable everyday living with a primary suite, guest bedroom, open living area, dining space, and kitchen designed for gathering. Upstairs, the loft overlooks the great room below and provides the perfect spot for reading, working remotely, or accommodating additional guests. The finished lower level creates an ideal second living area with a large family room, third bedroom, full bath, and two bonus rooms that offer flexibility for recreation, hobbies, home office space, or overflow sleeping accommodations. Whether you're hosting family for the holidays or welcoming vacation guests, there's room for everyone. Lovingly maintained and gently enjoyed as a second home, this property offers the rare combination of authentic log cabin charm, breathtaking long-range mountain views, and exceptional vacation rental potential. With over 3,500 square feet of heated living area, multiple gathering spaces, and nearly 1,400 square feet of deck space, this isn't just a mountain home—it's the mountain lifestyle you've been searching for. With over 3500 square feet of heated living space, three bedrooms, three baths, multiple bonus spaces, and nearly 1,400 square feet of deck and outdoor living area, this is the mountain getaway buyers envision when they dream of Western North Carolina.
