Welcome to 75 Cascade Trail, where the sound of cascading water greets you every day of the year. This custom-built mountain retreat is nestled on approximately 8.5± private acres in the heart of Pisgah Forest, offering a rare opportunity to live among nature’s beauty with your very own private waterfall, picnic area, and swimming hole.
As you arrive, an impressive driveway crosses a bold mountain stream and leads to a home filled with character, warmth, and timeless craftsmanship. The exterior is surrounded by native rhododendron, mountain laurel, and mature hardwoods that create a serene, park-like setting.
Inside, you’ll find 2,259 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space highlighted by massive wood beams, cathedral ceilings, and two striking brick fireplaces that anchor the main living areas, all covered by a metal roof. A glass-filled clerestory and expansive windows flood the interior with natural light, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the surrounding forest. The open-concept layout blends the kitchen, dining, and living spaces—ideal for entertaining, gathering by the fire, or simply unwinding after a day of hiking or exploring nearby trails.
The split-level design provides multiple zones for relaxation. Upstairs, the bedrooms offer restful privacy and treehouse-like views. The lower level includes a family room and flex space, with sliding doors that open to a 6-foot-high fenced area—perfect for pets or a secure play yard.
Step outside to enjoy multiple decks overlooking the forest canopy and the soothing sounds of your private waterfall. A rock and block picnic area by the water invites gatherings, while trails wind through a certified wildlife habitat teeming with native wildflowers, songbirds, and butterflies. Whether you’re soaking in the sounds of the stream, stargazing from the deck, or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, every corner of this property offers a connection to the outdoors.
The detached garage includes a large storage area, studio or workshop, and an attached greenhouse perfect for year-round gardening. Additional features include a covered woodshed, raised garden beds, and lush, natural landscaping that changes beautifully with the seasons.
Despite its seclusion, the property is ideally located—just minutes from DuPont State Forest, 18 minutes (10 Miles) to downtown Brevard, and 18 minutes to Hendersonville. The home’s side and backyard border a 677-acre parcel that connects directly to DuPont State Forest, ensuring lasting privacy and access to world-class trails and recreation.
This property is truly one-of-a-kind—a peaceful mountain sanctuary ready for your finishing touches in paint and flooring. Listed close to its appraised value, it presents an exceptional opportunity to own a private retreat with unmatched natural beauty, space, and tranquility.
