Some homes give you a view. This one gives you a mountain. Set high above the Bee Tree Valley on 33+ private acres, this architect-designed retreat offers the rare luxury of having an extraordinary amount of Western North Carolina all to yourself. Long-range mountain views unfold beyond the trees, while your own private trail system winds through the property below. Designed by award-winning architect Chris Larson, the home feels distinctly connected to its surroundings, with soaring spaces, exposed timber beams, walls of glass and radiant-heated concrete floors creating a warm, modern mountain aesthetic. A dramatic two-story stone fireplace anchors the main living space, while the chef’s kitchen—with custom cabinetry, high-end appliances and an oversized island—keeps everything open, easy and connected. The main-level primary suite is its own retreat with a spa-like bath and direct outdoor access, while two additional bedrooms and a flexible loft/bonus space await upstairs. And then there’s the outdoor living: more than 2,000 square feet of decks and patios, a screened porch, fenced yard and outdoor shower, all surrounded by the kind of privacy that’s becoming increasingly hard to find. An oversized two-car garage, generous walk-in attic storage and exceptionally functional mud/laundry area handle the practical side of mountain living. Private, architecturally distinctive and surrounded by 33+ acres of your own mountain landscape—yet still within easy reach of Asheville. This isn’t simply a house in the mountains. It’s your own piece of them. No drive-bys, please; showings by appointment only.

Don't miss this chance to own acreage in one of the areas most innovative, nature oriented communities. 11 community hiking and walking trails, community garden and apiary afford opportunities not available in many communities. Being bordered by a large conservation easement insured protection for native flora and fauna as well as humans! This is one of the larger tracts in this community. Due to it's topography there is potential for spectacular, multi range long distance mountain views. As a former developer of large mountain tract, I know that parcels of this size in restricted communities are very rare now, especially with paved road frontage. Having a protected ridge zone behind the lot adds value to this parcel as restricts development on both sides of the ridge. This parcel is ideal for buyers wanting to be immersed in nature without feeling isolated. Nearby Asheville has all the fine dining, cultural offerings and events one could hope for! High Hickory is a gated community which adds price of mind for vacation home owners and year around residents as well. Gated community have since been banned in Asheville.
