Property Description

Experience mountain living at its finest in this beautifully handcrafted timber frame home showcasing authentic mortise and tenon joinery and exceptional craftsmanship. Rooms are finished with tongue and groove pine and solid wood paneling on walls and ceiling throughout with 16 different wood species represented providing warm and comforting living spaces. With efficiency in mind, the home features a Voyager gas fired water heater that supplies the home’s hot water while concurrently, providing the radiant floor heat on the main and upper levels, structural insulated wall and roof panels, and 8 inch poured insulated concrete foundation walls. The quality of this home can also be found in some of the details: all closets are cedarlined, central vacuum system on all levels, hickory cabinetry, custom-crafted central staircase, whole house on demand generator for year-round peace of mind, and Brazilian Ipe hardwood decking. The walkout finished lower level offers a second living area, including full kitchen, bath, laundry/storage room and children’s play space with loft bed. Outdoor features include an expansive, wraparound deck to take in the long range mountain views from an elevation of over 3000 feet, detached workshop with 60 amp service and wood-burning stove, detached storage shed for lawn and garden equipment, attached carport, and even a children’s treehouse. Nestled in a serene, park-like setting, this remarkable property offers both privacy and convenience. Located just 20 minutes from the charming villages of Dillsboro and Sylva, and only 25 minutes from Cherokee, Bryson City, and the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, it provides easy access to dining, shopping, outdoor recreation, and some of Western North Carolina's most sought-after destinations. A rare combination of timeless craftsmanship, modern efficiency, and breathtaking mountain scenery.
