Jon Tharp Homes w/ Keller Williams Search Results

For those who believe a home should have a story, this one has plenty to tell. Tucked into 1.59 private acres in Strawberry Hill, this extraordinary three-level retreat is a true labor of love, handcrafted with reclaimed materials, locally milled timber, mixed metals, and unexpected architectural details. Part treehouse, part mountain cabin, with a little steampunk and bohemian spirit thrown in, there is simply nothing cookie-cutter about it. The home overlooks Mill Creek Falls on Lake Glenville and feels beautifully tucked into the mountainside. White pine harvested from Strawberry Hill was locally milled for deck supports and beams, while reclaimed timber posts, cypress, Ipe decking, industrial fixtures, antique trim sourced from international travels, and even wood from a 1910 schooner give the home remarkable texture and character. Reclaimed windows, mixed metals, exposed steel and wood, a spiral staircase, and a clever pulley system for hanging plants continue the collected, handcrafted aesthetic. Inside, a wood-burning stove and radiant floor heat make this an inviting retreat in cooler weather. The two-bedroom layout includes a unique primary bedroom on the second floor with an additional loft accessed by ladder above the bedroom. Also, an additional bedroom and half bath off the kitchen. Outside, an open-air shower and a hot-and-cold soaking tub are built directly into the rock, creating a wonderfully unexpected place to unwind beneath the trees. The substantial construction includes 4x8 and 4x4 timbers and a structure pinned into the mountainside with Teflon-coated rebar. There is also room to expand for someone inspired to continue the vision. Strawberry Hill is less than 10 minutes from public access to Lake Glenville and offers community water, activity courts, deeded swimming access to the lake, boat storage, and plans for a future gated entrance. Private, creative, and unapologetically original, this is a true mountain hideaway for hikers, adventurers, artists, and anyone who would rather own something with soul than something ordinary. An AWD vehicle is required for driveway access.

347 Strawberry Hill Rd, Cullowhee

$1,250,000

Nestled in a private setting within the prestigious Cullowhee River Club subdivision, this exceptional 2019 custom Arts and Crafts residence offers three bedrooms and four full baths plus separate guest accommodations, just minutes from Western Carolina University and downtown Sylva, North Carolina. Every detail reflects the finest craftsmanship, from the exposed beams that grace both interior and exterior to the architectural shingles and shakes that crown the home. Hardy plank siding, lush professionally landscaped grounds with private outdoor living areas, long-range mountain views, Trex decking, and a cozy covered front porch create an inviting first impression, while public water and sewer plus natural gas provide modern convenience. The open-concept main level is designed for effortless entertaining and everyday living. Passive light pours through the home, illuminating quartz countertops, a full suite of Bosch appliances, a generous kitchen island with breakfast bar, and a well-appointed pantry. The great room soars with a 23-foot cathedral ceiling and a floor-to-ceiling stone gas-log fireplace that becomes the natural gathering point that flows into the four seasons room surrounded in full glass. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring its own laundry, a large walk-in shower with double vanity, and direct deck access. Upstairs, an open loft serves beautifully as a home office, complemented by a guest bath with soaker tub and a spacious bedroom with walk-in closet. The finished basement continues the same standard of quality with 10-foot ceilings, a wet bar, live-edge shelving throughout, a guest bath with dual vanity and walk-in shower, and an additional bedroom. Completing the property is an attached two-car garage with guest quarters above—an open-plan suite with granite kitchenette and full bath, ideal for visitors or extended stays. Three-level zoned heating and a double tankless water heater ensure year-round comfort and efficiency. This rare combination of custom architecture, thoughtful indoor-outdoor flow, and a quiet yet convenient location makes the home equally suited as a primary residence or a refined mountain retreat.
