Located within a private luxury community in the Land of Waterfalls, the property is surrounded by national forest, state forests, and the Blue Ridge Mountains, providing rare privacy, tranquility, and a deep connection to nature. Thoughtfully created through the collaboration of a medical doctor, engineer, and builder, the home showcases an intentional approach to comfort, efficiency, and long-term quality. Features include passive solar design with a rock Trombe wall, radiant heated tile floors, solar water heating with propane backup, clean-wave energy, low-EMF electrical design using MC cable wiring and metal boxes, a woodstove, generator capability, and low-VOC paints and stains—delivering year-round comfort with easy, efficient maintenance. Designed for main-level living, the heart of the home is a dramatic great room with soaring ceilings and south-facing windows, flowing through a grand arch into the spacious dining area. The chef’s kitchen impresses with high-end granite countertops, custom hickory cabinetry handcrafted by a local master carpenter from Stone Mountain, and top-of-the-line appliances. A large screened porch just off the kitchen offers a peaceful, tree-house feel with long-range winter views. The lower level features a fully equipped in-law or guest suite with radiant heated tile floors, granite countertops, and a private exterior entrance—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Above the garage, a spacious carriage house/home office with half bath, private entrance, and broadband wiring provides a perfect separate workspace or tax-deductible office. Additional highlights include central vacuum, access to miles of community trails, and over 3,400 square feet of heated living space. All of this is just a short scenic drive to historic downtown Brevard and conveniently close to Asheville Regional Airport, offering accessibility without sacrificing the serenity of a mountain retreat.
