About this home

Escape to your own mountain retreat in the gated community of Grants Mountain! Nestled on nearly 10 private acres in the heart of Western North Carolina, this exceptional property offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, modern comfort, breathtaking mountain views, and proven income potential.

Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the home features 7 spacious bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, with custom barn wood cabinetry and granite countertops throughout, creating warmth and character in every space. The fully finished basement offers an additional living area and kitchen, ideal for hosting guests, multi-generational living, or maximizing rental flexibility.
