With hiking, biking, waterfalls and abundant outdoor recreation nearby, adventure is always within reach. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and walls of windows bring the beauty of the surrounding mountains and forest into nearly every room. The open living spaces are warm and inviting, anchored by a gas fireplace and filled with natural light and serene views. The kitchen features custom hickory cabinetry, quartz countertops, a spacious pantry and generous workspace, while the cathedral-ceiling dining room creates a stunning setting for everyday meals or entertaining. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat of its own, complete with a fireplace, custom walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath. Two additional bedrooms and a versatile bonus room provide plenty of space for family and guests, or flexibility for a home office, fitness room or additional sleeping accommodations. Outdoor living is just as thoughtfully designed. A screened porch, private stone terrace with gas fireplace and newly expanded Trex deck create multiple spaces to relax, dine and entertain while taking in the surrounding mountains and long-range views toward Mt. Mitchell. The home has been thoughtfully maintained and prepared for its next owner. The sellers completed a pre-listing home inspection and radon test and addressed identified items in advance. Additional features include a whole-house generator, oversized two-car garage with workshop and built-in storage, unfinished basement with excellent storage and future potential, two energy-efficient HVAC systems installed in 2025, a newer water heater, architectural roof and conditioned crawl space. This is not a home for someone who wants to be in the middle of town—and that is precisely its appeal.
