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.

There’s something special about an old farmhouse just waiting to be brought back to life and this Glenwood property is ready for its next chapter! Set on a wonderfully flat yard with ample parking and plenty of space for outdoor gatherings, this property has the setting, character and bones to inspire someone with a vision. Inside, you’ll find gorgeous hardwood flooring, large rooms throughout the main level and a spacious full bathroom. There’s an undeniable “old house charm” here, and with the right updates and renovations, it’s easy to imagine these spaces coming alive again. Upstairs are two bedroom spaces(bonus room that previously functioned as a third bedroom), giving you even more room to work with as you restore this home to its full potential. The home is heated by a furnace; however, when the furnace was replaced, it appears the vent piping was not connected to the upstairs vent, and the upper level is not currently receiving heat from the furnace. For this reason, the upstairs square footage is being reported as Non-HLA (non-heated living area). There is no bathroom upstairs. Buyers are encouraged to investigate the heating system and requirements for bringing this area into heated living area to their satisfaction. And the farmhouse feel doesn’t stop at the house! An old barn and older singlewide are also located on the property, adding to the story AND the possibilities. The condition and functionality of the singlewide are unknown, while the barn appears to be in poor condition and may require significant repair or removal. Buyers should independently evaluate both structures. Make no mistake, this is a true fixer-upper and will require someone prepared to put in the work or hire the professionals to do it. But with beautiful hardwoods, generously sized rooms, a flat yard, ample parking and a desirable Glenwood location, there is plenty here worth bringing back to life. If old homes, farmhouse character and a good “before and after” speak to you, come see the possibilities for yourself! Cash preferred; conventional financing will be considered.
