About This Home

As of August 2025

Quintessential mountain log home with exceptional privacy on almost two acres ~ year round views of Little Panthertail Mountain to enjoy from the spacious covered porch ~ beautiful sunrises, sunsets and serenity await. From the great room, with stone fireplace and lovely hardwood floors, there is access to the side deck, back deck, and the covered porch. Kitchen features all stainless appliances, gas range and a cozy breakfast area with a bay window. The primary bedroom is accented with a stone fireplace as well as a bay window, two closets and leads to the outstanding primary bathroom. Custom designed, the bath has outstanding details ~ a custom tile shower, a jetted soaking tub surrounded by windows to enjoy the mountain views, double vanities, heated tile floor, and heated towel rack. Also on the main level is a guest room with private bath - this room has also been utilized as a library and office. Upstairs is the third private bedroom accessed from the spacious loft which overlooks the great room. The third full bath is upstairs and serves the loft area and the third bedroom. There are dormer windows in both the bedroom and the loft making it light and bright. An excellent place for an office, crafts room, children's play area or extra sleeping space when needed. A pathway from the back deck leads to a workshop on the lower level. From the back deck there are perennial plantings and native flora surrounded by stone work; the area is fenced for pets to enjoy also. Deciduous trees provide shade in the summer and awesome fall leaf color. In winter, the sun is your friend! Over the years, this home has been loved and enjoyed by two owners who have kept it in excellent condition. Enjoy summer coolness, fall beauty, or stay all year round. Just off a paved highway, it is only a short distance to adventures of all types. Nearby is Gorges State Park, the Pisgah National Forest, numerous cascading waterfalls and the charming towns of Brevard, Cashiers and Highlands. Fine dining opportunities abound in the these communities as well as in Lake Toxaway. For enjoying all the mountains have to offer it is a wonderful choice.
