Property Description
A MOUNTAIN CABIN UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE || At over 4,000 feet elevation in the Wolf Laurel Gated Community, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, this cabin doesn't just impress - it surprises. What started as a rugged mountain retreat has been reimagined with a taste of Bavarian charm - reminiscent of cabins throughout the Bavarian Forest and the Czech Republic, where rustic character and modern luxury exist under the same roof. Seated on a wooded lot minutes from Hatley Pointe Ski Resort, the paved driveway sets the tone - this home is special. || WHERE RUSTIC MEETS REFINED || This property was selectively and thoughtfully updated. The wood walls and ceilings were re-stained and refinished. The exterior of the home and chimney were painted. Hardwood floors were recoated. The kitchen features upgraded appliances. The property now includes a sauna, washer, and dryer. A staircase was added to the kitchen. Mini-splits were installed for year-round comfort. || WHERE THE CABIN ENDS AND THE ART BEGINS || Lasvit Neverending Glory chandeliers anchor the interior - hand-blown Czech crystal sculptures modeled after the grand chandeliers of the world's most celebrated opera houses, from La Scala in Milan to the Metropolitan Opera in New York. These are not light fixtures in the ordinary sense. They are conversation pieces that happen to illuminate a room. The 208 sqft studio features Lasvit LiquidKristal panels - an architectural glass system developed by acclaimed British designer Ross Lovegrove, the same material used in landmark installations across the globe. The panels feel organic and alive with light. || THE SKI SLOPES AT YOUR DOOR || Hatley Pointe Ski Resort sits just minutes away - 54 acres of skiable terrain, 21 trails, night skiing, and a peak elevation of 4,700 feet. || Schedule your private showing today. In Wolf Laurel you can enjoy secure 24-hour gated access in this expansive 5,000+ acre community, near the Pisgah National Forest with direct Appalachian Trail connections. This location offers four-season weather. Wolf Laurel residents can enjoy a wealth of optional amenities through separate paid memberships like: 18-hole championship golf course at Wolf Laurel Country Club (highest east of the Mississippi), with clubhouse dining and pro shop. Heated swimming pool and tennis/pickleball courts. Fitness center with classes and wellness programs. Stocked trout fishing pond. Community pavilion, events, and more. This one needs to be seen in person. No driveways. Prospective buyers must be accompanied by an agent to enter the gate to the community. Certain updates to the property, including the studio, kitchen and exterior staircase, and shower, were completed without permits on file. Buyer is encouraged to conduct their own due diligence regarding permits and code compliance during the due diligence period.
