About This Home
Mountain-Top Retreat with Breathtaking Nantahala Views | 2BR | 2BA | Bonus Room | 3,400+ Ft Elevation
Escape the noise and experience mountain living at its finest. Perched at over 3,400 feet in elevation, this beautifully maintained retreat offers breathtaking long-range views of the Nantahala Mountains, including nearby Lake Nantahala, one of North Carolina's most beautiful high-elevation lakes. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or investment property, this home delivers the privacy, scenery, and mountain lifestyle buyers dream about.
Situated on approximately 0.78 acres in the desirable Whispering Springs HOA, the journey home is part of the experience. A paved road leads into the community before transitioning to gravel, winding through mature hardwoods to this peaceful mountaintop retreat surrounded by native mountain forest.
Inside, you'll immediately appreciate the warmth and character of a true mountain cabin. Natural wood finishes flow throughout the home, while a beautiful wood-burning fireplace anchors the spacious living room, creating the perfect gathering place on cool mountain evenings. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a versatile bonus room ideal for guests, a home office, hobby space, or additional sleeping accommodations.
Both upstairs bedrooms feature private balconies, offering the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sun rise over the surrounding mountains or unwind beneath a sky full of stars. Step outside to the expansive L-shaped deck, where the large covered section provides year-round outdoor living for relaxing, entertaining, or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings.
Just beyond the deck, a scenic fire pit overlooks Lambert Mountain, creating an unforgettable setting for evening gatherings, storytelling, and spectacular mountain sunsets. A detached storage building offers plenty of room for tools, lawn equipment, seasonal decorations, and outdoor gear.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love everything this location has to offer. Lake Nantahala is just minutes away, offering boating, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, and crystal-clear mountain waters. The nearby Nantahala River is nationally known for world-class trout fishing and exciting whitewater rafting. Within 30 minutes you'll find numerous mountain peaks, scenic overlooks, waterfalls, mountain biking, wildlife viewing, and miles of hiking throughout the Nantahala National Forest, including the renowned Appalachian Trail and historic Bartram Trail. The Nantahala Outdoor Center is approximately 20 miles away, while the charming town of Franklin is about 23 miles, offering shopping, restaurants, breweries, medical facilities, and everyday conveniences.
Whether you're purchasing your first mountain home, seeking a peaceful retirement retreat, or investing in a vacation property, 259 Laurel Lane offers the rare opportunity to own a private piece of the Nantahala Mountains.
Private. Peaceful. Elevated. Welcome home.
