Property Description
Contemporary design meets mountain luxury at this stunning mountain retreat in the coveted Sondley Estates. Perched on a private, elevated lot just minutes from downtown Asheville, you'll quickly be swept away by the long-range, west-facing views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The perfect blend of modern comfort and natural serenity. Step inside to discover an open-concept main level featuring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and stunning oak wood floors. A custom stone fireplace anchors the living room, while clean architectural lines and natural materials throughout reflect a refined, mid-century-inspired aesthetic that echo its breathtaking surroundings. The chef's kitchen is a standout-equipped with high-end appliances, cherry wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and elegant stone-tiled floors. Flow into the spacious sunroom, where a Jøtul wood stove, wood-paneled ceilings, and wraparound views create the ultimate space to relax as the sun sets behind the mountains. The lower level offers flexible living space with abundant natural light and a "treehouse" feel-perfect for hosting guests, creating a studio, or relaxing in total privacy. Sliding glass doors lead to an expansive covered deck that extends the living space outdoors where you'll be greeted with intimate mountain vistas across the French Broad River valley. Recent updates include a new HVAC system, new garage door, and new mini-split units for added comfort throughout. The oversized two-car garage provides tall ceilings and ample storage. Nature lovers will appreciate the convenient access to recreation as this property backs-up directly to the Blue Ridge Parkway-offering easy connection to the Mountains-to-Sea Trail via nearby access points on Upper Sondley Drive. Steps from the garden area of this home lead directly to the Blue Ridge Parkway providing a timely commute to incredible hiking or biking options. Whether you're seeking a refined second home or a peaceful escape in one of Asheville's most sought-after communities, this is luxurious mountain living at its finest.
