Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. One of the last large lakefront parcels on Wolf Creek Lake, this peninsula property extends into the water, offering approximately 1,400 feet of lake frontage and unobstructed views across the lake and mountains in three directions. Wolf Lake is a low-density, privately intimate body of water — made more so by the approximately 12,000 acres of U.S. Forest Service land that borders much of its shoreline. The result is a setting defined by quiet, wildlife, and an absence of the density that characterizes most lakefront real estate. Bald eagles, otters, wild turkey, and deer move through the surrounding land; the lake holds trout, walleye, crappie, bluegill, and both smallmouth and largemouth bass. The parcel carries no community restrictions, allowing a buyer to build to their own vision. Two permitted boat docks are in place. A Nantahala Power easement exists for access roads related to riparian rights. A property of this scale, on a lake of this character, with this orientation — three-directional water and mountain views from a true peninsula — has no ready comparison.

Welcome to The Fox Estate: A Living Masterpiece of Mountain Modernism. Commissioned in 1974 and pristine following a multi-year restoration overseen by architect James Howard Fox, The Fox Estate is an uncompromised landmark 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. A natural creek flows beneath the structure before feeding the half-acre, trout-stocked lake, making water, shifting light, stone, forest, and sky part of the home itself. Offered turnkey, the estate remains indivisible from its history. Included is a pristine twenty-four-piece furniture collection custom designed by Fox, two monumental sculptural gates reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West, and original hand-drawn 1974 conceptual renderings—together forming an irreplaceable intrinsic art asset. 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. Step from the great room onto seventy feet of deck floating above the water, while a hidden dock beneath the residence provides access for swimming, rowing, and trout fishing. Updated infrastructure throughout the home ensures modern comfort and efficiency. An adjoining parcel includes a fully renovated, two-bedroom guest cottage with Whiteside Mountain views, a sculptural gated entrance and drive, two fireplaces, and a kitchen centered around a handcrafted zinc island—ideal for multigenerational living or guests. More than a luxury residence, The Fox Estate is an immersive work of architecture, a historically significant mountain landmark, and one of the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau’s most original estates.

Set within this private 430-acre community at the base of Whiteside Mountain, the land reflects everything buyers come to expect at this elevation — around 3,300 feet — mature hardwood forest, natural rock features, and a peaceful mountain backdrop with strong upside for selective clearing.

Ownership in Holly Berry Estates includes deeded access to two private lakes, reserved exclusively for residents and ideal for fishing, swimming, canoeing, and other non-motorized boating.
