About This Home
Perched at the highest point in the prestigious, The Ridge at Yonahlossee community, “Higher Ground” is a rare and storied mountain retreat offering timeless character, exceptional location, and iconic views of the celebrated Grandfather Mountain profile. Rich in history and mountain charm, this distinctive residence is one of the original homes associated with the Yonahlossee Riding Club for Girls, providing a unique connection to the area's legacy while offering the comforts and conveniences desired for modern mountain living. A spacious deck serves as the perfect vantage point to enjoy the breathtaking Grandfather Mountain view, along with expanded seasonal vistas of the surrounding mountains and ski slopes beyond. Positioned as the last home within this intimate enclave, the property enjoys an abundance of parking, level outdoor spaces ideal for recreation and pets, easy care landscaping, and beautiful native perennial gardens. Inside, a stunning, stone, wood burning fireplace anchors the inviting living room, where vaulted tongue and groove ceilings create a warm yet dramatic atmosphere. The updated galley kitchen offers an efficient and well planned layout, designed to maximize functionality while remaining tucked away from the main living spaces. A dedicated dining area provides a beautiful setting for gathering with family, friends and guests. The spacious main level primary suite offers comfort and privacy, while a second bedroom and full bath can function as a private guest suite through the use of a convenient pocket door. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bath are accessed via an open hallway that enhances the home's airy character while preserving the functionality of the floor plan. Additional conveniences include a welcoming mudroom, a dedicated laundry and pantry area with built in cabinetry for everyday organization, and a separate storage room providing valuable space for seasonal and outdoor gear. Exceptionally located less than 15 minutes from both Boone and Blowing Rock, “Higher Ground” offers convenient access to shopping, dining, grocery stores, skiing, hiking trails, and the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, all within easy reach. Short term rentals are permitted, making this an excellent option as a full time residence, mountain getaway, or vacation rental property. Optional membership opportunities are available through Yonahlossee Resort and Club, offering access to premier amenities including an indoor pool, fitness center, clubhouse, game room, tennis and pickleball facilities, professional instruction, social events, and club activities. Combining historic significance, mountain elegance, and an unparalleled setting, “Higher Ground” is a truly special High Country retreat where luxury, lifestyle, and legacy come together.
