Welcome to your mountain top retreat on 7-acres. This exceptional 2024-built home offers the perfect blend of privacy, luxury, and modern efficiency. A gated entrance welcomes you along a graded gravel road leading to a paved circular drive setting the tone for the impressive design and thoughtful details throughout this 4,252-square-foot home. A spacious entry off the covered porte cochere—equipped with two EV chargers—adds both function and style. Step inside to a grand open great room featuring soaring ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame breathtaking natural surroundings and flood the space with light. Blue Ridge views open in the winter but once leafed out, the tress create a private sanctuary. The heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen outfitted with quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, an induction range and double refrigerator/freezers. The main-level primary suite is complete with a double-sided tiled shower, dual sinks, and an expansive walk-in closet conveniently connected to the laundry room with built-in storage. Upstairs, a versatile loft space is complemented by a pocket office and two generously sized bedrooms sharing a full tiled bath. One bedroom features a walk-in closet with a charming access door to a finished attic space—perfect for storage or a creative hideaway. The lower level expands the living space with a large recreation/family room, a full bath, and an additional flex room ideal as a guest bedroom or office. Step out to the lower patio, already wired for a hot tub and enjoy outdoor living off the main level with covered and open wraparound decking, perfect for dining & relaxing. Exterior amenities, including additional covered parking, a gravel RV pad with well and septic hookups, and a level area previously used as a horse riding ring. Sustainable and practical features include Tesla solar panels with back up battery, power and plumbing for a whole-house wood-burning furnace, fruit trees, and a storage shed. This one-of-a-kind property delivers modern mountain living at its finest—private, quiet & designed for comfort. Just 10 minutes to downtown Morganton for shopping, restaurants and entertainment. Less than 10 minutes to I-40 access-1.5 hours to Charlotte and one hour to Asheville.
