About This Home
Nestled in a picturesque riverfront community in the heart of Cullowhee, this enchanting custom home offers the perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and natural beauty. From the moment you arrive, the serene setting draws you in—majestic mountain views frame the front porch swing, while the soothing sounds of the river provide a calming backdrop in the rear. Designed with versatility in mind, the home features not one but two primary suites, one conveniently located on the main level and another in the walkout basement. A charming garage apartment adds to the flexibility whether you envision it as a guest retreat, a private office or studio, or an income-producing long-term rental. Outdoors, mature landscaping transforms the property into a gardener’s paradise, complete with terraced beds, lush plantings, and vibrant seasonal colors. The detached double garage ensures ample space for vehicles, tools, and storage, keeping everything neatly tucked away. Inside, natural light pours into the enclosed, heated sunroom, creating a warm, inviting space for year-round relaxation—perfect for morning coffee, curling up with a book, or tending to plants in a cozy greenhouse-like atmosphere. Every detail of this home has been crafted to harmonize with its surroundings, offering an exceptional opportunity to live in a private mountain retreat without sacrificing modern comfort. This property is more than just a home, it’s a lifestyle, blending scenic splendor with everyday ease in one of Western North Carolina’s most beautiful settings.
