FOX DEN: Impressive Jim Fox modernist design resting on the edge of Satulah Mountain at 4100ft.
One of Fox’s most striking installations, built in 1985 & featured in several magazines, including Fine Homebuilding. The structural concept is based on 4 intersecting planes offering unique angles & glass throughout with all rooms designed for maximum vantage points.
Enter the main floor to stunning views. Savor your sunrise coffee on the upstairs terrace with long range views to nearby Whiteside, Chimneytop, & Terrapin Mountains and Sunset Rock. Or enjoy the proximity to the shops & restaurants that downtown Main Street has to offer! If nature's seclusion is your pace, head up to the historic Satulah Mountain & Brushy Face Preserve with more amazing vistas. The main floor includes a custom kitchen with Bosch and Fisher & Paykel paneled appliances, Caesarstone countertops & Rohl fixtures that accentuate Fox’s sleek cabinetry and skylight windows overlooking a rhododendron forest. Adjacent is a powder room with dueling triangular windows & herringbone marble floors. The living room opens to impressive views of surrounding mountains and features Fox’s trademark organic stacked stone fireplace. Upstairs is a secluded primary suite with dueling triangular windows overlooking Satulah forest and an intentionally designed master bath with heated herringbone marble floors & a walk-in closet. An office or studio space is adjacent with a private viewing loft perched above. Vertical windows create an open-air feeling as you traverse floors. The lowest level boasts a lounge with a MCM Brutalist fireplace & dry bar central to 3 large bedrooms, each with newly renovated en-suite bathrooms & private decks. Exit to a lower deck overlooking an excavated rock face and step down to a 1000 sq ft terrace in the trees! This expansive viewing platform displays the impressive architecture of the house’s cantilevered, diamond-design, & can be used for a game court, garden, outdoor entertainment area, etc...
This cantilevered beauty is fresh from a masterful, meticulous 7-digit renovation, resulting in a modernized and sophisticated home. New updates, a secluded 1.5 ac wooded lot $ native landscaping ensure minimal maintenance. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an architectural marvel on Satulah & one of the few in-town houses with long range views within walking distance to Main St.
