Welcome to your own private mountain retreat, where every detail has been thoughtfully designed to blend comfort, quality and natural beauty.

As you arrive, a tree-lined pebble driveway sets the tone, guiding you toward a home defined by architectural grace that truly embraces its surroundings. The living room's soaring floor-to-ceiling windows that frame sweeping mountain views, gives the feeling of living among the treetops. Natural light pours through the open spaces, enhancing the home's unique design and craftsmanship. Imagine sipping your morning coffee on the screened porch while listening to the soothing sounds of the garden fountain or your guests taking a peaceful stroll down the back pathway to the charming 1 bed, 1 bath guest cottage. After a day exploring downtown Old Fort, nearby Black Mountain or Asheville, gather around the firepit under the stars or enjoy a game of shuffleboard or darts in the lower-level rec room while mixing your favorite drinks at the wet bar.
