Perched at 4,600' along the ridgeline, this classic rustic home offers sunrise & sunset views that stretch for miles—an elevated escape in Balsam Mountain Preserve. A nature lover’s dream, it’s surrounded by native landscaping in a conservation community where 3,200 of 4,400 acres are permanently protected. The main home features 3 bedrooms with ensuite baths, a half bath, and a bonus room/office off the butler’s pantry with an additional half bath. Designed for main-level living, it showcases heart pine floors reclaimed from the Ivey Cotton Mill, oversized windows, and radiant heat floors on the lower level. The walkout basement offers space for guests and entertaining. Outdoor living includes a screened porch with wood-burning fireplace and multiple covered porches for quiet reflection. Balsam Mountain Preserve offers more than a home—it’s a lifestyle, with access to golf, equestrian facilities, a nature center, dining, and more.
