Positioned along the 13th fairway of the private, member-owned Wolf Laurel Country Club and set at an elevation of approximately 4,100 feet, this distinctive mid-century modern home offers an uncommon combination of architectural character, extensive golf course frontage, and a uniquely framed mountain setting within one of Western North Carolina’s premier mountain communities.
Designed to emphasize natural light and a connection to the outdoors, the home features soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive walls of glass, and an open, flowing layout that brings the surrounding landscape into the living spaces from nearly every angle. The dramatic great room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and opens to expansive decking overlooking the golf course. The open-concept design continues into the kitchen and dining areas, with multiple access points extending the living space outdoors.
A defining feature of the property is its golf course and mountain corridor view. The home’s positioning captures a layered perspective following the 13th fairway across the green, over the 14th tee box, and continuing down the 14th fairway toward the surrounding mountain ridgelines. This alignment creates a dynamic and visually engaging setting rarely found within the community.
With approximately 550 feet of golf course frontage, the property offers an exceptional sense of openness and space. The approximately 1.75-acre homesite is notably large for Wolf Laurel and features gentle, usable topography—an uncommon combination at this elevation. Mature hardwoods, rhododendron, and native landscaping provide natural separation from neighboring homes, while small natural streams contribute to the property’s private, park-like mountain setting.
The home offers generous living and gathering spaces, well-proportioned bedrooms, and a flexible floor plan suited to family, guests, and second-home living. Its distinctive architecture and exceptional setting also provide an opportunity for a new owner to personalize and update the property over time while preserving the character that makes the home unique. The property is offered furnished and equipped, subject to the sellers’ exceptions list.
Located within the gated Wolf Laurel community, the property is convenient to year-round mountain recreation, including golf, skiing at Hatley Pointe, dining at Smoke and Timber, and extensive hiking and biking opportunities, including access to the Appalachian Trail. Additional amenities may be available through optional memberships at the Wolf Laurel Country Club and Village Club.
Wolf Laurel is approximately 27 miles from Asheville, providing convenient access to one of Western North Carolina’s most recognized destinations for dining, craft breweries, live music, outdoor recreation, and year-round entertainment.
Combining mid-century architecture, elevation, an unusually large homesite, extensive golf course frontage, and a remarkable mountain view corridor, 326 El Miner offers an opportunity to reimagine and enjoy a truly distinctive Wolf Laurel mountain property.
