About This Home

In the heart of Avery County, beyond the trappings of ordinary architecture lies a residence unlike any other, a home and living chronicle, meticulously kept grounds that includes a pond, abundant with aquatic life. Constructed from reclaimed log cabins and barns gathered from across the nation. Every beam, floorboard and stone carries a story, blending centuries-old heritage with refined comfort. This residence is a rare fusion of preservation and innovation, a retreat, a celebration of heritage and an architectural work of art. The Appalachian cabin: The dining room and kitchen are anchored by hand-hewn logs salvaged from an 1840s North Carolina cabin, where settlers once gathered around a stone hearth after long days in the fields. The cabin features multiple flex spaces to comfortably host family and friends. Underfoot, hand-planed floorboards from the same cabin creak with history. The great room showcases towering beams reclaimed from a historic Gap Creek, Tennessee structure, while continuous stonework, sourced from Linville River, was carefully hand-laid without breaking a single piece. The primary suite features native black cherry and maple floors milled in Newland, N.C., and the back patio boasts a handcrafted granite picnic table, traded for a rare gem by the home’s builder. The owner will sell this home separate from MLS 257302. New PIN and deed will be provided at closing.
