Set on 16.6 acres with sweeping 180-degree eastern views stretching across South Mountains State Park and the NC Piedmont, this three-bedroom, three-bath home offers nearly 3,900 square feet of space, privacy, and connection to its surroundings.

Pine and oak harvested directly from the property have been thoughtfully incorporated throughout, adding warmth and a sense of place. The main level includes a spacious kitchen, dining area, and a large sunroom with vaulted ceilings that opens to a wraparound deck overlooking the view, well suited for both entertaining and quiet retreat. Each level of the home includes its own bedroom and full bath, offering comfortable separation for guests. Upstairs, a loft overlooks the main living area and serves easily as a reading nook or home office. The lower level features a private entrance, kitchenette, bedroom and bath, along with a finished media room complete with a Murphy bed and ceiling-mounted projector, making it ideal for extended stays or potential rental use. Outside, approximately half an acre of level grassy yard provides usable outdoor space, complemented by a paver patio and fire pit for evenings under the sky. A two-car garage, an additional detached garage down the hill, workshop space, and generous storage offer flexibility for vehicles, hobbies, and gear. RV or tiny home hookups are already in place, adding to the property’s versatility. With Starlink internet and the option to convey fully furnished, this home offers a true turnkey opportunity. Conveniently positioned between Asheville and Charlotte, this property provides a peaceful escape with the ability to stay connected when needed.
