Perched high above the Blue Ridge landscape in the gated community of High Peak Mountain Estates, this extraordinary mountain retreat offers the kind of views most people only experience on scenic overlooks. From sunrise hues to unforgettable sunset skies, the long-range mountain vistas create a breathtaking backdrop for everyday living.
Designed to capture both comfort and connection to the outdoors, the home features soaring cathedral ceilings and expansive windows that fill the open-concept living spaces with natural light while framing the mountains beyond. A dramatic rock fireplace anchors the main living area, creating the perfect gathering space after a day exploring the mountains.
With approximately 4,100 square feet, this thoughtfully designed home offers 3 bedrooms and 4 baths, including convenient main-level living with a bedroom and laundry on the main floor. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat complete with a freestanding electric fireplace, spa-inspired bath with jacuzzi tub, dual vanity, and walk-in shower. A loft overlooking the living area provides flexible space for an office, reading nook, or additional lounge area.
The home was built with entertaining in mind. The finished lower level features a large recreation room with fireplace, a bar area with kitchenette, and an additional bedroom and full bath with sauna. With the pool table included, it’s an ideal setting for hosting friends and family.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. Three covered decks, including a screened porch and a private balcony off the primary suite, offer multiple spaces to take in the surrounding landscape. Enjoy evenings in the eight-person hot tub, gather around the fire pit under the stars, or relax while surrounded by thoughtfully curated landscaping featuring vibrant flowering plants, mature trees, and seasonal blooms throughout the property.
The seller has invested in numerous improvements including a new concrete driveway, refreshed decks, copper porch accents, upgraded lighting, new kitchen appliances, updated bathrooms, and interior enhancements that add both style and functionality.
Short-term rentals are permitted, offering exceptional flexibility whether you’re searching for a private mountain escape, full-time residence, or investment opportunity.
