Experience exceptional mountain living in this custom-crafted retreat in The Lodges at Eagles Nest built by Vogel Builders—one of the closest homes in the community to Beech Mountain Ski Resort and just steps from the Beech Mountain gate, premier trails, and amenities. Thoughtfully designed and situated at approximately 4,300 feet of elevation, this 3-bedroom, 2-full and 2-half bath home offers seasonal long-range views, mountain views, dramatic sunsets, and the privacy of a 1.74-acre wooded setting. From the moment you arrive, the home's blend of rustic architecture and refined modern finishes sets it apart. Timber-frame beams, natural stone accents, and expansive glass highlight the surrounding mountain landscape. The main level features a vaulted great room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, seamlessly connected to the dining area and a designer kitchen with custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and elegant lighting. The main-level primary suite provides a tranquil escape with vaulted ceilings, a spa-inspired bath, and direct access to the deck for enjoying the cool mountain air.
