Perched just under 5,000 feet, this stunning five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath mountain retreat offers sweeping 50-mile views across the Blue Ridge Mountains. Set on 1.12 acres across two lots, the property provides rare seclusion and protected, long-range vistas. A dramatic wall of windows fills the great room with natural light and frames breathtaking sunrises, glowing sunsets and starry night skies. The open layout centers around a striking double-sided, wood-burning fireplace that warms the great room and dining area, an inviting setting for everyday living or entertaining. The kitchen combines rustic charm with upscale function, featuring GE Monogram appliances, an eat-in island, breakfast nook and ample cabinetry. A butler’s pantry, laundry room and mudroom with separate entrance add convenience. The main-level primary suite features mountain views, a gas fireplace, dual vanities and dual closets. A second bedroom with en-suite bath and Jacuzzi tub works well as a guest room or office. A 612-square-foot loft above the great room offers flexible space for creative work or wellness. Downstairs, two spacious en-suite bedrooms are joined by a family room with fireplace, wet bar, game area and indoor sauna. Go onto one of three expansive decks—nearly 2,000 square feet of covered outdoor living—and unwind in the hot tub. The lowest level includes a fifth bedroom or workshop with entrance and deck access, plus a cozy media room. Additional features include a new roof (May 2025), two-car garage and driveway parking for four-plus vehicles. Just a mile to Beech Mountain Resort and minutes to Buckeye Lake, hiking and fishing. With a strong rental history and five-star reviews, this home offers a rare lifestyle and investment opportunity in the High Country. Please note the 979-square-foot discrepancy between professional measurements and tax records. No building permits were found on file. Seller purchased the home as-is and has made no changes.
