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.

Situated on 26+/- of unrestricted acres in the mountains of Western North Carolina, this remarkable private estate offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, functionality, and peaceful mountain living. With breathtaking long-range views, flowing spring-fed streams, open pastureland, and endless possibilities, this property is truly a rare find. The home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms with an inviting layout designed for gathering and entertaining. Spacious living areas, two gas fireplaces, and multiple sleeping accommodations make it ideal for large families, retreats, or hosting guests. The original owners even hosted annual Easter Sunrise Services here, a testament to the property's peaceful and welcoming setting. One of the guest rooms includes its own gas fireplace and offers the potential for a private guest suite, recreation space, or additional living area. The driveway could also be extended around to provide a flat, stair-free entrance if desired. Equestrian enthusiasts and outdoor lovers will appreciate the professional-size 180' x 100' arena — large enough for a full dressage arena — along with pasture space, trails, and multiple outbuildings. A large metal building currently serves as a horse barn with temporary stalls and includes power and exterior water, while an antique log barn with attached workshop provides additional storage and charm. The approximately 6-acre section containing the arena, pasture, pole barn, well, septic, and power could easily function as a separate self-contained parcel for future resale, rental income, or development potential. The property also offers several additional homesites, making it ideal for a family compound, vacation rentals, or expansion opportunities. Surrounded by other large privately owned tracts, the area offers exceptional hiking and outdoor recreation. Explore nearby creeks, trails, Christmas tree fields, and waterfalls including Slatten Falls and the Chinquapin waterfalls. Conveniently located approximately 15 minutes from Glenville and 25 minutes from Cashiers, the property remains easily accessible year-round via county-maintained gravel roads. From spectacular sunrises and sunsets to frequent mountain rainbows, every inch of this property reflects the serenity and beauty of mountain life. More than a home, this is a sanctuary — a place to gather, grow, create memories, and truly disconnect from the world.
