Exceptional Home Offering Stunning Views of Grandfather Mountain along with multiple mountain ranges. A Perfect Mountain retreat, less than 2 years old, built and owned by a general contractor with quality craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. Located in southern Ashe County, with convenient year-round access, just 1.5 miles off Highway 221, makes travel easy while still enjoying the privacy and serenity of the mountains. Constructed with thicker footers and 2x6 exterior walls, this home was built with durability and efficiency in mind. The low-maintenance LP Smart Siding exterior, accented by striking Douglas Fir beams, and metal roof creates a timeless mountain-style appearance. Situated on 3 acres, the home was thoughtfully positioned in the center of the property to maximize privacy and take full advantage of the view. With over 3,100 square feet of living space, the interior features a spacious open-concept design highlighted by a dramatic two-story living area with tongue-and-groove ceilings, abundant glass, and breathtaking mountain views. Tinted windows provide added comfort and energy efficiency while enhancing the enjoyment of the scenery. The living room is anchored by a beautiful stone fireplace and flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area. The upscale kitchen features quartz countertops, a large center island with bar seating, stainless steel appliances, glass cooktop with downdraft vent, and double ovens. Real hardwood flooring extends throughout the main and upper levels. The main-level primary suite offers convenience and comfort with a luxurious en-suite bath featuring double quartz vanities, a walk-in tile shower, and a walk-in closet with custom built-ins. A spacious laundry room and convenient half bath are also located on the main level. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms with custom closets, share a full bath. The finished lower level provides excellent flexibility with a large den/family room opening to a covered patio, a full bath, rough-in kitchenette area with additional refrigerator space, 2nd laundry room, and a versatile flex room ideal for a home office, playroom, gym, or additional sleeping area. Enjoy the benefits of a circular drive and 2 access points to the home, one from the lower side and one from the upper side. Located behind the gated entrance of Christmas Mountain, yet not subject to the subdivision restrictions, this property offers far more freedom and privacy than a typical neighborhood setting. Surrounded by larger acreage tracts, including nearby 10-acre parcels, the setting feels peaceful and secluded while remaining just 10 minutes to downtown West Jefferson and approximately 20 minutes to Boone. A fantastic High Country location with quality construction, incredible views, and modern mountain style.
