Beyond the home itself, the gated community offers a rare slate of shared amenities that elevate the experience even further, including a scenic waterfall area, a small community lake with a dock, and a network of hiking trails, with the gated entrance adding privacy and security for guests seeking a quiet, secluded escape without sacrificing convenience. The location strikes an excellent balance between seclusion and accessibility, with a short drive to Old Fort for dining and breweries, easy reach of Black Mountain, Chimney Rock, and Lake Lure, and Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway both within about 45 minutes. Offered fully furnished and turnkey—including all furnishings, kitchenware, décor, and the hot tub—this home makes it exceptionally easy for a new owner to step in and continue operating it as an income-producing vacation rental from day one, and with its proven rental history, and unbeatable combination of privacy, views, and community amenities, it represents a rare opportunity to own a true mountain retreat that also performs as a strong investment property.
