About This Home
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Linville Mountains, this exceptional residence offers an elegant blend of refined mountain living, craftsmanship, and Lake James waterfront access. The home is thoughtfully designed for both gracious, entertaining and relaxed everyday living. Custom woodwork, soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, and a commanding stone fireplace create a warm yet sophisticated atmosphere. The gourmet kitchen is appointed with a six-burner Wolf gas range with pot filler, Wolf double wall ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and wine cooler. A light-filled sunroom offers a tranquil space to linger, while the great room provides an inviting setting for gathering beside the fireplace. The primary suite features a beautiful soaking tub, tiled shower, and custom walk-in closet.
