Jon Tharp Homes w/ Keller Williams Search Results

For nearly fifty years, this working farm has been a hidden masterpiece of the Blue Ridge Mountains, reached by a mile-long gravel drive that winds through open pasture, alongside creeks, and beneath towering hardwoods before finally opening to the home. And what a home it is. Custom-built in 1978, the home blends timeless architecture with a level of craftsmanship and character that’s difficult to replicate today. Nearly 2,500 square feet of living space, filled with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, natural stone, and remarkable natural light, gives the home a warmth that balances perfectly with its scale and craftsmanship. At the heart of the home is an enormous double-sided fireplace built from hand-selected local stone, anchoring two separate living areas. The layout was thoughtfully designed, with the primary suite positioned on the main level and two additional bedrooms with a full bath upstairs. Large windows throughout the home frame views of the surrounding farm and mountains in nearly every direction, while newer Pella windows along the northern side of the main level bring even more light into the living spaces. Solid-surface countertops, wide-plank hardwood floors, architectural shingles, a partial basement, an attached two-car garage, and a large rear deck complete the home beautifully. Outside, the estate unfolds across 139 acres of some of Western North Carolina’s most desirable landscape. Approximately 20 acres are established pastureland with partial fencing already in place, while the remainder of the property stretches through mature timber, trails, and multiple creeks flowing through the farm. Several potential building sites throughout the property offer exceptional long-range views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the potential for a family compound, event venue or investment. The farm remains highly functional as well, with a storage and implement barn, large metal garage/storage building, and tractor and hay equipment conveying with the sale. Certain furnishings inside the home will remain too. Properties like this are becoming increasingly rare — not simply because of the acreage, but because of the complete package. A truly custom home with architectural character. Privacy without isolation. Usable land. Water. Views. History. And a setting that feels every bit as special as the home itself. This is the kind of property families hold onto for generations.

The main and upper levels offer an easy flow between the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating comfortable spaces for gathering and everyday living. With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, the home provides plenty of room for family and guests. The primary suite offers a quiet retreat, while additional bedrooms and flexible spaces allow for a home office, creative studio, or overflow accommodations. A well designed laundry area and generous storage further enhance functionality. The lower level expands the living space with a partially finished basement featuring a large den, additional bedroom, and full bath, ideal for guests, recreation, or multi generational living. With walk out access, this level connects seamlessly to the outdoors and offers even more versatility. Outdoor living is just as appealing, with covered and open deck spaces that invite you to relax, dine, or entertain while taking in the layered mountain views. Whether enjoying your morning coffee with Shortoff Mountain in the distance or winding down in the evening as the light fades over Dobson’s Knob, these outdoor areas provide a truly special vantage point. Adding to its appeal, the home sits directly across from the Marion Lake Club, a semi private golf course, offering convenient access for golf enthusiasts and a scenic, open backdrop that enhances the overall setting. A dedicated utility space perfect for a golf cart makes it easy to take full advantage of the course, creating an ideal setup for buyers seeking both golf and lake life. Located just 1.7 miles from a public boat ramp and only 0.8 miles from Lake James State Park, this property offers quick and easy access to some of the area’s best outdoor recreation, from boating and fishing to hiking and biking. Combined with nearby marinas and the charming downtowns of Marion and Morganton, this location delivers an exceptional balance of convenience and lifestyle. With over 3,000 square feet of living space, a two car garage, and unmistakable character throughout, this property presents an exceptional opportunity for a full time residence, second home, or investment. For those who appreciate a home with personality, craftsmanship, and a story to tell, this one is truly something special.

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.

Private Mountaintop Estate | 5 Bedrooms | ±11.39 Acres | Solar Uninterrupted views of Marion from one of the highest homesites in the area. High above downtown, this two-story estate sits on approximately 11.39 acres of mountaintop land, reached by a paved private drive. The setting is quiet and private by elevation itself. The property borders Mount Ida Wilderness Park — 36 acres of city preserve with a one-mile trail to overlooks of Short Off Mountain and the town below. Downtown Marion is about three-tenths of a mile away. You live above it. You easily go down to it. Solar panels crown the home — a quieter kind of luxury: lower operating cost, a lighter footprint, and the comfort of generating power on your own roof while the views do the rest. The main level is built for living well. A fully appointed kitchen with breakfast nook. Formal dining. A great room wrapped in glass, fireplace at the center, views running front to back. The primary suite is its own retreat: fireplace, private bath with jetted tub, and a screened covered deck. The great room opens to a broad entertaining deck above Marion. Upstairs: four bedrooms and two full baths. One suite is large enough to serve as a second primary, with its own bath, walk-in closet, and a private balcony. This is a rare combination in McDowell County — acreage, long views, trail access, solar, and Main Street close enough for dinner, the Peavine, and the farmers market. A private mountaintop estate that still belongs to town. If you want room, elevation, and a home that works as beautifully as it looks, this property deserves a private showing.
