Property Description
Commanding an extraordinary mountaintop setting just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, this exceptional custom estate is a rare expression of refined mountain living. Set on approximately six private acres, the property captures breathtaking panoramic views that stretch for miles, creating an unforgettable backdrop in every season. Thoughtfully designed outdoor living spaces, including multiple seating areas and fire pits, invite quiet mornings, unforgettable sunsets and effortless entertaining surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. Natural light pours through expansive windows, beginning in the welcoming entry foyer that doubles as a sun-filled sitting room. Beyond, soaring vaulted ceilings define the dramatic great room, where an open balcony above and walls of glass create an impressive sense of space while keeping the extraordinary views at the forefront. Designed for both everyday living and exceptional entertaining, the chef's kitchen is appointed with premium Wolf appliances, a commercial-grade salamander, a steam oven and an impeccably equipped butler's pantry. Just beyond, an intimate viewing room offers one of the home's most captivating spaces, where every window frames the surrounding mountain landscape. The main-level primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with custom barn-door closets and tranquil views. Upstairs, two spacious guest suites, two full baths and a versatile bonus room offer exceptional accommodations, while a richly appointed office provides an inspiring workspace. The lower level features a generous recreation room and half bath. The estate also includes an attached two-car garage, as well as a separate three-car garage connected by a covered walkway. Above, a beautifully finished private apartment with its own bedroom, bath, living room and kitchen offers ideal accommodations for guests, extended family or a caretaker. A home of remarkable craftsmanship and enduring elegance, this is a place where architecture and landscape exist in perfect harmony, offering extraordinary privacy, exceptional amenities and one of the area's most spectacular mountain settings ready for you to call it home.
