Property Description

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.
