Perched above the pristine waters of Lake Fontana, this striking modern residence captures panoramic views of the lake and Smoky Mountains from nearly every level. Oversized windows fill the interiors with natural light, while expansive wraparound decks create a seamless connection to the landscape. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen features a quartz waterfall island and premium Thor appliances, opening to generous living and entertaining spaces. The main-level primary suite enjoys sunrise views and a spa-inspired bath, while two additional suites and flexible living areas provide space for guests, a home office, fitness studio or media room. Wet bars on each level, a swim spa pool, flagstone terrace and professionally designed hardscaping extend the home’s thoughtful amenities outdoors. Bordering protected U.S. Forest Service land, the property offers exceptional privacy and an extraordinary setting where contemporary design meets the natural beauty of Western North Carolina.
