Welcome to The Fox Estate: A Living Masterpiece of Mountain Modernism.

Set across 4.9 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains, it reflects Fox’s vision of architecture, landscape, art, and life in harmony. Its defining feature is a daring engineering gesture virtually impossible to reproduce today: the residence spans the private, spring-fed waters of Asbury Lake.

Offered turnkey, the estate remains indivisible from its history.

Inside, Fox’s design language unfolds through walls of glass, stacked stone, vaulted ceilings, indoor-outdoor geometry, and a monolithic granite boulder fireplace. The culinary space features quartzite countertops, expansive windows, and an intimate snug anchored by a Scandinavian wood-burning stove. The main residence includes a vaulted great room, three bedroom en-suites, full bar, dining room, office and family room. The primary en-suite is a private sanctuary offering a morning kitchen, more than seventy linear feet of cedar-lined closets, and a private stone patio overlooking the lake.

A rare mountain estate with iconic views set within the gated enclave of Sassafras Ridge, this 6.9-acre estate offers sweeping panoramic views across the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. From its elevated setting, the horizon stretches over Nix, Toxaway, and Bald Rock mountains, with a glimpse of the storied fairways of the Country Club of Sapphire Valley below. Membership to the club is by invitation only, adding to the sense of privacy and exclusivity. At the very end of Long Way Road, privacy and serenity define the approach. The custom-built main residence is perfectly oriented to capture its extraordinary vistas from nearly every living space, allowing the beauty of the mountains to serve as an ever-changing backdrop. The main level flows effortlessly from the gourmet kitchen — equipped with premium appliances, custom cabinetry, and an expansive island — into the dining and living rooms, where a grand stone fireplace anchors the space. Walls of glass invite sunlight to pour in while framing the awe-inspiring views. Step onto the covered porch, a year-round gathering place complete with its own stone fireplace and protective isinglass panels, extending its comfort into the cooler months. Just beyond, the lower deck offers a stainless steel hot tub and firepit seating, both perfectly positioned to embrace the sweeping vistas. The main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary, featuring a secluded balcony, dual closets, and a spa-inspired bath. A powder room and laundry room complete this level. Upstairs, a relaxed sitting area serves three spacious guest suites, each with its own ensuite bath. One of these is a charming bunk room, designed for younger guests to enjoy, with whimsical hand-painted walls that set the tone for laughter and adventure. Outside, a path through manicured gardens — past a serene meditation area with a weeping stone water feature — leads to the detached guest cottage. This flexible space is ideal as a private office, creative studio, or self-contained guest quarters. Estate properties of this caliber — commanding views, refined livability, and acreage to match — are an increasingly rare discovery on the Plateau.

There are rare homesites, and then there are places that feel as though they were set aside for something extraordinary. Perched within Silver Run Reserve at an exceptional elevation of almost 4000 feet , this 9+ acre estate homesite offers the uncommon opportunity to own what feels like a private mountaintop, complete with sweeping 180-degree, year-round long-range mountain views and unforgettable sunsets that unfold across the western sky. What makes this property truly remarkable is not only its view, but its usability. Many high-elevation parcels within the Cashiers area offer drama, but few offer this kind of gentle, workable topography at the top of the mountain. Here, multiple potential build sites create a rare canvas for a legacy estate, family compound, guest cottage, expansive lawns, gardens, and outdoor living spaces designed to fully embrace the landscape. A roughed-in driveway leads to a generous building area, allowing the scale and privacy of the property to be immediately understood. From the moment you arrive, the experience is undeniable: the land opens, the mountains stretch in every direction, and the homesite feels both commanding and deeply peaceful. Along the eastern boundary, protected Nature Conservancy land adds an enduring sense of seclusion and natural beauty. The Summit at Silver Run captures the epic reality of mountain ownership at its highest level: elevation, acreage, privacy, sunset views, and the freedom to create something truly lasting. All of this is set within a fully amenitized community just minutes from the heart of Cashiers, offering the rare combination of being perched above it all while remaining connected to one of the Plateau’s most desirable mountain communities.
