About This Home
A rare opportunity to own a custom-designed mountain retreat on just over 7 acres that adjoins the BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY! — a rare combination of privacy, panoramic Parkway views, and thoughtful, comfortable living. Main-level living centers around a dramatic beamed, soaring ceiling and an open living/dining/kitchen plan that flows through sliding glass doors to an expansive TimberTec composite deck framed by heavy wood beams (deck engineered to support a fireplace).
The gourmet kitchen features a stunning center island, KitchenAid appliances, Mouser cabinetry, and granite countertops. White oak hardwood floors run throughout the home with tile in the baths; beautiful traditional-meets-modern light fixtures add refined character. The main-level primary suite offers a double-sink vanity, elegant tiled shower, and walk-in closet.
A large laundry with sink and a convenient half bath sit just off the kitchen. Upstairs are two serene bedrooms sharing a full bath. The lower level provides flexible living — a large family and dining area (a kitchen could easily be added), French doors to a lower patio, a seller-used fourth bedroom/flex room, and a sizable utility/storage room.
Engineered White oak floors in lower level. Upper parcel includes an insulated 3-bay garage/workshop with mini-split and tractor with attachments that are include! Property is served by a whole-house Generac generator (propane).
A second tract across Donald Barrier offers future potential. Located about 10 miles to groceries and just 10–15 minutes to Linville Falls, Linville Cavern, Linville Winery, and local Christmas tree farms. Exceptional opportunity to own acreage adjoining the Blue Ridge Parkway — ideal as a primary mountain home, weekend retreat, or high-end rental.
