Within the city of Ashville, this multi-level mountain retreat offers the ultimate lock-and-leave lifestyle with views that will take your breath away. Experience the perfect balance of togetherness and privacy. This unique architectural Award- winning home is masterfully divided into distinct living zones, making it an exceptional fit for home office and visits from family and friends. Imagine taking your morning zoom calls from the private second-story deck or transforming the massive third level into a sprawling executive suite, media room, or creative workshop. When the workday ends, unwind in the main-level owner quarters or mix a drink in a kitchen outfitted with Silestone countertops and custom copper accents. With distinct zones for working, living, and entertaining, this home provides the perfect boundary between professional productivity and mountain relaxation. Rest easy with a robust infrastructure featuring a city maintained 18,000-gallon water supply at the top of the mountain, a natural gas Generac whole-house backup generator, dual EMP surge protection (home and generator), and a structurally superior steel I-beam and reinforced concrete driveway. The climate and efficiency systems are top-tier, including High-E glass windows with a lifetime warranty, separate Trane HVAC systems (2021), a new roof (2025), and a fully finished lower level with a Vermont Castings direct vent gas stove and new remote- controlled mini-split (2023), this home offers low-maintenance luxury and fort-like security without sacrificing a single ounce of its majestic mountain beauty. And when you step beyond your door, the very best of Asheville awaits. In just minutes, you can be downtown — wandering through art galleries, savoring meals at one-of-a-kind restaurants, browsing local shops, or losing yourself in the shelves of the public library. A regional mall, the University of North Carolina Asheville, Asheville-Buncombe Technical College, and countless volunteer opportunities at ABCCM all add to the vibrant heart of the city. And yes—there’s even a Trader Joe’s. Guests will love exploring Asheville’s charm with the help of the Chamber of Commerce, Visitor’s Bureau, and local tour companies ready to share the rich history and culture of the region. Travel is effortless too. Just eight miles south lies the Asheville Regional Airport, offering direct flights to major hubs, along with a bustling shopping area. And yet, after all this convenience, you come home to a quiet, small-town mountain retreat—a place where the view stretches for miles and the world slows down. From here, you’re also perfectly placed for weekend adventures: Atlanta, Nashville, Charleston, and Charlotte are all just a few hours away. This is the rare combination everyone longs for: location, lifestyle, and a magnificent mountain view. The home was also pre-inspected, and the owners are working through the handful of minor findings. This house is truly worry and hassle free. Currently covered by a home warranty that could convey to buyer at closing.
