And from the moment you pull into the drive, you feel it. When we say real estate is all about location, the setting of this home speaks for itself. Perched above a rolling valley with layer after layer of long-range mountain views, this nearly new home—completed at the end of 2024—was designed to take full advantage of its incredible surroundings. Whether it’s the soft morning light rising over the ridgelines or the quiet stillness that settles in at sunset, every part of this property invites you to pause, take a breath, and stay awhile. Step inside and the feeling continues. The main level is warm, open, and welcoming, with a living room centered around a beautiful stone gas fireplace—perfect for cool mountain evenings. The kitchen blends charm and function with granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, and gas range, while the dining area opens to a screened porch where you can enjoy the outdoors without ever leaving your seat. And then there’s the deck… more than 800 square feet of outdoor living space, with an incredible 15-foot-wide deck overlooking those mountain views. This is where mornings begin with coffee, where conversations stretch a little longer, and where the view becomes part of everyday life. The main floor offers two bedrooms and two full baths, thoughtfully laid out for comfortable everyday living. Downstairs is what really sets this property apart. With its own access from both inside and outside, the lower level lives almost like a second home. It features another full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and full bath—creating incredible flexibility for guests, extended stays, or multi-generational living. For buyers considering short-term rental possibilities, the layout creates an especially interesting opportunity. The home could potentially be rented as one complete mountain retreat, or the two living areas could function separately—giving an owner flexibility in how the property is used and potentially creating multiple income options. It’s quiet here. Private. The kind of place where you can actually hear the breeze move through the trees. Practical features haven’t been overlooked either, with a whole-house generator, tankless water heater, generous parking, and a large storage space tucked beneath the garage and accessible from the downstairs living area—perfect for all the extras that come with mountain living. And while it feels like a world away, you’re still remarkably close to everything that makes this area special. The Blue Ridge Parkway is less than a mile away, Little Switzerland is just a short drive, and hiking trails, waterfalls, scenic overlooks, and countless Western North Carolina adventures are waiting nearby. Sellers just placed home on STR program and home is consistantly being rented.
