About this home

Welcome to one of the most remarkable properties in the Southeast, or the US for that matter! Situated on a double lot & affectionately named "THE ROCK HOUSE" by its owners, this is one of the most unique properties you will ever see! Extremely rare opportunity to live in such an amazing setting that will make you feel like you're at Moss Rock Preserve everyday! The home was constructed on the huge boulder that is its foundation in 1968 after geological consultation & has recently undergone a complete renovation resulting in the show stopper you now see! Walk down the steps hewn into rock & follow the path to this spectacular wonderland to build a fire under the bluff or have dinner with a friend! The inside of this home will not disappoint with its state of the art chefs kitchen, complete w/ granite countertops, top of the line custom cabinetry & stainless steel appliances! Living room w/ wall of windows overlooking stunning views! Hardwoods throughout! Call to see today!
