Description
Immerse yourself in the extraordinary craftsmanship and timeless elegance of this antique hand-hewn log and timber-frame estate, spanning 5.93 acres of pristine mountain beauty with unparalleled long-range and rockface views across Lonesome Valley. A true testament to artisanal mastery, the home boasts a harmonious blend of rustic grandeur and thoughtful luxury, all set within a private sanctuary accessed by a picturesque stone driveway. Upon entry, there's a grand living space defined by soaring timber beams, intricate woodwork, and a commanding stone fireplace that anchors the room with its stately presence. Adjacent, the chef's kitchen exudes both style and function, providing an exceptional setting for culinary artistry. This space flows seamlessly into a refined sitting room with a gas fireplace and a bespoke bar, offering an intimate setting for relaxation and gatherings. At the opposite side of the living area, a stately library invites quiet reflection. Expansive outdoor living spaces, including a sweeping stone terrace and a screened porch with a third stone fireplace, perfectly frame the breathtaking vistas and the soothing melody of a serene water feature. The main level is designed with comfort and sophistication in mind, featuring a sumptuous primary suite with an ensuite bathroom and an additional ensuite guest bedroom. Upstairs, two well-appointed guest rooms accompany a separate living area, an entertainment-ready billiards room, and a fitness room, providing versatile spaces to suit every lifestyle need. Practicality meets elegance in the home's array of functional spaces, which include a butler's pantry, a well-proportioned office, a laundry/mudroom, and a secure safe room ideal for safeguarding valuables or wine storage. The grand porte-cochere further underscores the property's sophisticated sense of arrival. Car enthusiasts will appreciate the estate's thoughtfully designed garages, with one two-car garage attached to the porte-cochere and the house, and a second two-car garage uniquely built into the hillside, adding a distinctive touch. Located within the High Hemlock enclave, a short distance from the unrivaled natural beauty of Panthertown Valley, and surrounded by over 6,000 acres of the Nantahala National Forest, this estate offers rare access to pristine hiking trails and Wolf Lake within the Chinquapin community. This magnificent residence is a secluded haven, capturing the essence of refined living amid nature's splendor.
