Jon Tharp Homes w/ Keller Williams Search Results

ON TOP OF THE WORLD! Perched on 4.36 private acres within the gated community of Grants Mountain, near Marion in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, this exceptional custom log home offers unobstructed, long-range mountain views year-round. Even when the leaves return, the view remains. From the home you can see panoramic vistas all the way to Mt. Mitchell, the tallest peak east of the Mississippi. With 2,898 heated square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 1 half bath, and beautifully designed spaces inside and out, this is more than a mountain home. It is a true mountain retreat where you'll feel like you're "On Top of the World." From the moment you arrive, the setting captures your attention, but it's the thoughtful details that make this home so special. The great room is anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert, surrounded by windows that bring the mountains inside. The kitchen and dining area is large and open, filled with natural light, with a wall of windows leading out to the home's many outdoor living areas. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat. Upstairs, two more bedrooms, a full bath, and a loft. The lower level adds even more versatility, with a large two-car garage and a laundry/mechanical room. There is also a finished flex room with a stone-faced wet bar and home theater, plus an impressive 500 square feet of unfinished space ready for your vision. It could become a second primary suite, a game room, a fitness area, a workshop, or more living space. Step outside and you'll understand why this home truly lives above it all. Covered porches and expansive new decking create multiple spaces to relax, entertain, or simply sit quietly and take in the scenery. Morning coffee, afternoon sunsets, evening gatherings: every moment comes with a view. And then there's the detached two-story, three-car garage, with 32-foot-deep bays and 656 square feet on the second level. It's ideal for vehicles, outdoor toys, hobbies, or a workshop, and it offers great potential as a future accessory dwelling unit. A feature like this is rarely found on a mountain property. Recent improvements include a new HVAC system, a basement mini split, an on-demand tankless water heater, and a whole-house water filtration and softening system with UV purification. A reverse-osmosis system provides the purest drinking water. Despite its private mountain setting, you're only about 15 minutes from downtown Marion and I-40, 25 minutes from Lake James, and 45 minutes from Asheville. Linville Gorge, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Pisgah National Forest are all within easy reach. Unobstructed long-range views. Exceptional privacy. Room to breathe, relax, entertain, and create. This is mountain living at its finest, a place where the views are extraordinary, the details matter, and every day feels like a getaway.

Custom log home on 2.27 private acres in Grandview Peaks, the gated mountain community off the Nebo exit of I-40 between Marion and Morganton, with long-range, year-round Blue Ridge views from all three finished levels. Built in 2017 with 5 bedrooms, 6 full baths, a main-level primary suite and a complete in-law suite on the walkout lower level, it works as a full-time residence, a mountain getaway, or the place where everyone gathers. The main level is true one-level living: primary suite, great room, dining, chef’s kitchen, laundry and two full baths on one floor, reached by a covered wraparound porch with a ramp to the driveway. The lodge-style great room rises to a beamed cathedral ceiling beside a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with gas logs, and a wall of windows and French doors opens to the deck and the view. Hardwood floors on the main and upper levels. The kitchen was built for entertaining: oversized granite island with breakfast bar seating and a wine fridge, gas cooktop, two ovens, warming drawer, two dishwashers, farmhouse sink, wet bar with prep sink, under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances, and a walk-in pantry with a second freezer. The primary suite has a cathedral ceiling, mountain views, a walk-in closet with a window, and a spa bath with an air-jet soaking tub set under the view, a tiled walk-in shower with dual shower heads and a bench, and dual vanities. Outside, a full-width rear deck faces the mountains, a screened porch with a ceiling fan and gas heater stretches the season, and the covered patio below has a hot tub connection. Stone fire pit, deer-fenced raised-bed garden, and a wired barn-style workshop with loft storage. Detached timber-frame carport with an EV charging station, generator hookup with manual transfer switch, two-car garage with interior access, and a concrete circular drive with room for guests. Upstairs: two bedrooms, two full baths, and a loft sitting room overlooking the great room. The walkout lower level is a complete second living quarters with its own entrance: full second kitchen, two bedrooms, one with en-suite bath, a second full bath, its own laundry, and a game and theater room with a wall of mountain-view windows, tongue-and-groove ceilings and stained concrete floors. The fifth bedroom is currently set up as a home office. Multi-generational living, long-term guests or rental income without sharing the main floor. Private well and septic, both documented: a 6-inch drilled well producing 60 gallons per minute, and a conventional septic system permitted for five bedrooms and pumped in 2024. Two heat pump systems, propane water heater, gas cooktop, gas logs and porch heater, security system, Spectrum high-speed internet, and county taxes only with no city taxes. Grandview Peaks is gated with paved HOA-maintained roads and underground utilities, a 10-acre stocked lake with a sandy beach, swim platform, fishing dock and canoe and kayak access, a timber pavilion with a stone fireplace and grills, shuffleboard and volleyball courts, five miles of hiking trails and a waterfall, and an active social calendar. Lake James, Linville Gorge, South Mountains State Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway are an easy drive, Asheville is about an hour, and Charlotte about an hour and a half.
