For Sale $650,000
Handcrafted with intention and thoughtfully updated, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat invites you to slow down and embrace the beauty of nature. Nestled on four lots totaling approximately 5.7 acres in desirable Walker in the Hills, the property feels like your own private sanctuary. Winding walking paths, lush ferns, numerous native plants (see list), raised garden beds, and the peaceful sounds of a creek and waterfall create an everyday escape. Designed to bring the outdoors in, the spacious conditioned sunroom offers a front-row seat to the changing seasons. The two-story great room welcomes you with soaring cathedral ceilings, abundant natural light, a Vermont Castings wood stove with a river rock surround, and a hand-carved wood mantel that serves as the heart of the home. The mountain-modern kitchen is both beautiful and functional, featuring quartz waterfall countertops, updated stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and an inviting breakfast bar for gathering with family and friends. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with private access to a three-person hot tub and a spa-inspired bath featuring a clawfoot soaking tub, double vanity, and tiled walk-in shower. Flexible living spaces allow the second bedroom to serve as an office, craft room, or guest suite with built-in shelving and desks, while the third bedroom can easily transition into a formal dining room. A partial basement provides valuable storage or workshop space. Thoughtful improvements, including a new septic system (2025), hybrid water heater, refastened metal roof, gutters and wood fascia, and updated deck railings, offer added peace of mind. Located just 15 minutes from downtown Waynesville with convenient access to US-74, this exceptional property offers the perfect balance of privacy, craftsmanship, and accessibility—where every day feels like a mountain getaway.
