Property Description

Escape to the serenity of this secluded Mars Hill mountain retreat, offering approximately 38 acres at elevations of 3,300 feet and above, with beautiful mountain views and a peaceful wooded setting. This distinctive 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features SIP construction, extensive custom woodwork, artistic millwork, built-ins, recessed niches with glass shelving, and warm wood floors throughout. The lofty, open-concept main level is filled with natural light and features a spacious kitchen centered around a large granite-topped island with plenty of room for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. Step outside onto the expansive wrap-around deck to take in the mountain views, sunsets, and surrounding forest. The lower level offers radiant floor heating, generous recreation and living space, and a large bedroom with walk-in closet and en suite bath. Thoughtful systems include solar-assisted hot water and a two-stage radiant heating system utilizing a storage tank and instantaneous water heater. Additional improvements include a durable metal roof and doors replaced approximately 2.5 years ago. Fiber-optic internet provides modern connectivity and convenience in this mountain setting. The vinyl-sided exterior offers easy maintenance, while a large detached shed, previously used as a woodworking shop, provides excellent storage or workshop potential and can be connected to electricity. The backyard also features wonderful gardening space, a fire pit and a chicken coup. There is an additional well on the property which has been capped, but could be revived for low pressure irrigation. Convenient to Mars Hill and within reach of Asheville, this one-of-a-kind property combines substantial acreage, craftsmanship, mountain views, and a wonderfully secluded Western North Carolina setting.
