Description
Not all new construction is created equal—and this custom mountain retreat proves it at every turn. Near completion, this private sanctuary was originally built as a personal custom home—never intended for the market—and that distinction shows in every decision made along the way. Built with poured concrete walls, 2x6 exterior framing, closed-cell foam insulation, and high-efficiency HVAC, it delivers exceptional performance behind its striking design. When investing in a mountain home, what you can't see matters just as much as what you can. Thoughtful construction like this is what truly sets a property apart, and this home was built to outperform from the foundation out. The exterior showcases Brava synthetic cedar shake and a standing seam metal roof—a significant investment rarely seen at this level—paired with masonite and concrete siding for lasting durability and minimal maintenance. Perched at approximately 4,500 feet atop Double Knob within Chinquapin's 2,000-gated acres, this 4-bed, 4.5-bath home offers breathtaking long-range mountain and valley views, with unforgettable sunrises and sunsets. Inside, a mix of timeless farmhouse and craftsman design meets modern refinement. The open main level features pecky pecan floors, beamed tongue-and-groove ceilings, a statement stone fireplace, and Phillip Jeffries grasscloth wallpaper. Expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape like living art. The chef's kitchen dazzles with an Explosion Blue island with a two-inch mitered edge, Calacatta Oro countertops, Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, LG 4-door refrigerator, beverage cooler, and wine fridge. The primary suite offers dual closets and a spa-inspired bath perfectly positioned for ridge-top views. Guest suites are equally well-appointed. Outdoor living shines with a screened patio off the kitchen, fireplace lounge, sunset-facing dining porch, and multiple decks across two levels. Additional highlights include a whole-house generator, Trex decking, and an oversized two-car garage with ~800 sq ft of conditioned space above—ideal for a studio, office, or guest overflow. A certificate of occupancy is expected soon. Staging is to follow soon after, so check back to see the final result. Luxury furnishings available separately.
