Set in a premier Nantahala location just minutes from the Nantahala Outdoor Center, Appalachian Trail access, and Fontana Lake, the property offers unmatched access
to whitewater rafting, hiking, and mountain adventure, while remaining privately tucked among national forest land where deer and native wildlife roam freely. Spanning over 6,500+ square feet, this estate blends architectural significance with modern luxury.
Expansive glass, soaring ceilings, and open-concept living spaces frame breathtaking long-range mountain views in every direction. This home features signature circular design with central stone fireplace, four deluxe suites with spa-inspired baths, a roof top observation deck with panoramic Smoky Mountain views, new flooring, paint, lighting, and
upgraded finishes, a Sauna, outdoor hot tub, wellness-focused amenities, a wet bar and open entertaining spaces designed for hosting. Imagine living in this private mountain resort with extensive, wraparound and terraced decking, the rooftop terrace, covered outdoor lounges, firepit gathering areas and an immersive forest setting full of views, stone pathways and curated landscaping throughout.
Own your own detached, fully upgraded gym and entertainment building, complete with new roofing, high-end equipment, and its own climate system.
