About this home

Commanding an extraordinary mountaintop setting just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, this exceptional custom estate is a rare expression of refined mountain living. Set on approximately six private acres, the property captures breathtaking panoramic views that stretch for miles, creating an unforgettable backdrop in every season. Thoughtfully designed outdoor living spaces, including multiple seating areas and fire pits, invite quiet mornings, unforgettable sunsets and effortless entertaining surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. Natural light pours through expansive windows, beginning in the welcoming entry foyer that doubles as a sun-filled sitting room. Beyond, soaring vaulted ceilings define the dramatic great room, where an open balcony above and walls of glass create an impressive sense of space while keeping the extraordinary views at the forefront. Designed for both everyday living and exceptional entertaining, the chef's kitchen is appointed with premium Wolf appliances, a commercial-grade salamander, a steam oven and an impeccably equipped butler's pantry. Just beyond, an intimate viewing room offers one of the home's most captivating spaces, where every window frames the surrounding mountain landscape. The main-level primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with custom barn-door closets and tranquil views. Upstairs, two spacious guest suites, two full baths and a versatile bonus room offer exceptional accommodations, while a richly appointed office provides an inspiring workspace. The lower level features a generous recreation room and half bath. The estate also includes an attached two-car garage, as well as a separate three-car garage connected by a covered walkway.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. Christy can introduce you to lenders she trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
