Property Description
Experience refined rustic elegance and breathtaking sunset views from this westward-facing mountain estate located just outside the city limits of Boone, behind the gates of Boulder Cay. This exceptional four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath masterpiece features a main-floor primary suite with a newly renovated bathroom, and is complemented by a private den or office with its own full bath. The upper level hosts two additional en-suites and a versatile flex room, while an independent private suite rests above the garage, offering ultimate flexibility for guests. Perfectly positioned for convenience and leisure, this address allows you to drop into town for shopping, dining, and all Boone has to offer, or easily wind your way toward Blowing Rock, Appalachian Ski Mountain, and the Blue Ridge Parkway while avoiding traffic. The recently renovated chef's kitchen serves as the home's culinary heart, featuring premium Wolf, Viking, Sub-Zero, and Bosch appliances, custom cabinetry, exquisite countertops, and a built-in espresso machine. Throughout the interior, timeless knotty alder doors, matching trim, and rich coffered ceilings pair beautifully with custom log and native rhododendron railings. Step outside to your choice of covered or open decks with a cozy outdoor fireplace and expansive open-air spaces designed specifically to take in the layered western views and vibrant autumn foliage. A fully sealed crawlspace, insulated attic, and high-end windows & doors ensure energy efficiency during crisp mountain winters. This is the special High Country retreat you have been waiting to call home.
