This second parcel holds the keys to the future. You might choose to build a second luxury cabin here, creating a multi-generational family compound centered around the waterfall. You could build a lucrative income-producing vacation rental, completely hidden from the main house. Or, you can simply leave it untouched, ensuring that your absolute privacy. Step onto the cabin’s expansive, wrap-around covered porches. It is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening with friends, accompanied by the perpetual, soothing soundtrack of the rushing creek below. Or sit outside along the crafted stone patio next to the outdoor fireplace overlooking the high side of the waterfall. Inside, the home envelops you in mountain warmth. Your feet step across beautiful wood and tile flooring, drawing you toward the main living room. There, a massive, floor-to-ceiling native stone wood-burning fireplace stands ready to warm chilly autumn evenings. The thoughtful layout features 3 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with premium appliances, this home is built for enjoyment. Every inch of this home was engineered for comfort and peace of mind. Downstairs, a fully finished second living area adjoins the one car garage. It is a legacy, a sanctuary, and a rare opportunity to own a piece of the mountains that is a rare find.

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.

Magical! This warm family home captures the feel of a French country house, with all its character and unexpected nooks and crannies. Both engaging gathering spaces and private, contemplative ones coexist in this inviting setting. It’s rare to find so many possibilities in a single home: A formal dinner with friends - or pizza by firelight at the private firepit; a good book read by a fireplace (one of three) - or lounging with friends in the mountain view hot tub; creating a whimsical painting in the loft/studio - or enjoying a relaxing session in the infrared sauna; create a craft cocktail in the distinctive bar - or you can always escape to the self-contained apartment above the garage. All these and more await you here. At nearly 4,ooo feet of elevation, the weather, the spectacular view and landscaping become an integral part of life.

Perched above one of Western North Carolina's most celebrated natural treasures, this newly constructed masterpiece by the acclaimed Fern Creek Builders delivers a rare confluence of refined craftsmanship, sweeping panoramas, and absolute privacy. Welcome to 2276 Breedlove Road — a home that doesn't simply sit in the mountains, it belongs to them. Approached via a private entrance off Breedlove Road, the journey to this 2024-built retreat unfolds across 8.02 acres of lush, wooded seclusion — culminating in a generous, level grass yard that offers open space almost unheard of at this elevation and two creeks flow through the property. From the moment you arrive, the intent is clear: this is a property designed to be lived in deeply and remembered forever. Step inside and the mountain modern aesthetic is immediately commanding. Soaring open-concept living spaces are anchored by rich reclaimed beams, shiplap, and oak hardwood floors that run continuously throughout. At the heart of the great room, a grand wood-burning stone fireplace commands attention and sets the tone for evenings spent in warmth and conversation. The custom kitchen is a culinary showcase — marble countertops, bespoke cabinetry, and a full Cafe Collection appliance suite strike the perfect balance between professional performance and elevated style. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself — generous in scale and deliberate in every detail. A spa-inspired bath features a large walk-in shower with rain shower head, double vanity, and heated tile floors that transform cool mountain mornings into a luxury ritual. Step through to the expansive covered deck and the full drama of the setting is revealed: 180 degree unobstructed views sweeping across Panthertown Valley — a landscape of ancient ridgelines, forested coves, and ever-changing light. A second wood-burning outdoor fireplace makes this outdoor living room a four-season escape, equally inviting at the height of summer or beneath a canopy of autumn stars. The lower level is equally impressive — three well-appointed bedrooms, two full baths, and a large family room that opens directly to another expansive deck, extending the connection to the landscape at every turn. A two-car garage completes the package with practicality to match the prestige. Properties of this caliber — new construction, luxury finishes, true acreage, privacy, and those views — are simply not replaced once gone in the Cashiers/Glenville corridor.
