Seamless indoor-outdoor living creates an extraordinary setting for both everyday life and effortless entertaining. High ceilings, expansive windows, 10-foot doors, and shiplap accents enhance the home's warm yet refined mountain aesthetic, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living space with comfort and charm. The screened porch serves as an extension of the home, featuring a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, creating the perfect gathering space throughout the seasons. A remarkable aspect of this property is the intentional use of materials sourced directly from the land itself. Hickory harvested from the property was milled and crafted into the covered porch flooring, locust from the property was used for the decking, and a stunning black walnut kitchen island serves as a centerpiece for the home. Throughout the main living areas, solid oak tongue-and-groove flooring provides warmth, durability, and timeless appeal. While not milled from the property, it adds beautiful old world character to the home. A true architectural showpiece, the staircase was crafted from reclaimed wood salvaged from the historic Lucky Strike Tobacco Factory, adding both interest and a sense of history to the home. The main residence offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, complemented by a private lower-level apartment featuring its own entrance, full kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bath—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or extended stays. Additional flexible space includes a workout room and an unfinished covered outdoor area already plumbed for a future hot tub and sauna. The detached multi-level garage building offers incredible versatility. The lower level features a workshop with an oversized garage-style door, while the main level provides garage space and a large office complete with a deck and pull-up door. The upper level has its own private entrance and is currently utilized as a successful Airbnb-style suite, offering gathering space, sleeping quarters, and a kitchenette. Outside, a large fire-pit overlooks the wooded property, where selective clearing has created multiple vantage points showcasing spectacular year-round mountain views. A rare blend of luxury, craftsmanship, flexibility, and mountain lifestyle, this exceptional property offers a level of detail and quality seldom found in today's market.
