About This Home

Set high on a private mountainside within the gated community of Alpine Mountain, 126 Wildflower Cove Drive is defined by its setting: long-range, year-round views that unfold across layered Blue Ridge ridgelines and the Swannanoa Valley. The views stay with you through every season, framed in spring and summer by green and opening further once the leaves fall. The covered back deck is where the home is best experienced.

Morning coffee, quiet evenings and the changing light across the mountains become part of the daily rhythm, sheltered from sun and weather and fully open to the view. Inside, 2,144 square feet of living space offers three bedrooms and 2.5 baths with a comfortable, well-considered flow.

Cherry floors carry warmth through the main level and the living room is anchored by a gas fireplace for cool mountain evenings. The kitchen is designed for cooking and gathering alike, with custom cabinetry, a center island with a gas cooktop and double ovens. Upstairs, new carpet provides a fresh, move-in-ready finish throughout the upper level.

The home sits on 0.84 acres, offering privacy and a sense of retreat without the upkeep of a larger parcel. Access is easy: Alpine Mountain's community roads have recently been paved, making the drive to the front door smooth and effortless in every season.

Alpine Mountain combines a quiet, gated mountain setting with remarkable convenience. Downtown Black Mountain is approximately 10 minutes away, with its independent shops, galleries, restaurants, events, Lake Tomahawk and the Black Mountain Golf Course. Swannanoa's coffee shops and breweries are close at hand, and downtown Asheville is roughly 20 minutes away, offering the region's celebrated dining, arts and culture.

Quick access to I-40 simplifies travel throughout Western North Carolina, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, Montreat, and countless trailheads are all within easy reach. For those seeking long-range views, a private mountainside retreat, and effortless access to both Black Mountain and Asheville, 126 Wildflower Cove Drive offers a rare balance of seclusion and convenience in one of Swannanoa's established gated communities.
