Distinctive custom 4BR|3BA mountain retreat with breathtaking Grandfather Mountain views in the exclusive gated community of Morgan's Ridge within Echota on the Ridge. Being offered fully furnished, this exceptional home is perfectly positioned among the lush natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, offering the ideal blend of luxury, tranquility, and timeless mountain living. The impressive great room welcomes you with soaring tongue-and-groove ceilings, exposed timber beams, random-width oak hardwood flooring, expansive windows framing the spectacular views, and a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace. Step onto the covered deck to enjoy a second stone fireplace and an unforgettable setting for year-round outdoor living surrounded by the beauty of the High Country. Designed for gathering, the custom kitchen features handcrafted cabinetry, copper sinks, quality appliances, generous workspace, and an adjoining dining area that flows effortlessly into the main living spaces. Throughout the home, reclaimed barnwood from a historic Ashe County barn adds warmth, character, and a sense of authenticity that complements the home's mountain-inspired design. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with deck access and a beautifully appointed bath featuring a custom solid wood vanity, copper sinks, and artisan finishes. Upstairs, a spacious loft creates an inviting secondary living area, accompanied by a generous guest bedroom and a versatile flex room currently used as a home office—ideal for remote work, hobbies, or additional guest accommodations. Located within one of the High Country's premier mountain communities, owners enjoy access to Echota's exceptional amenities, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, fitness facilities, scenic walking trails, a clubhouse, and year-round activities, all just minutes from Banner Elk, Boone, skiing, golf, hiking, and the region's most popular attractions.
