Located just 15 minutes from downtown Boone, this modern mountain estate on 1.575 acres offers 4,156 sq ft of crafted living space, 6 bedrooms, and 5.5 baths. Step inside to a grand living room featuring 20' cathedral ceiling, a floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace, and 2-story windows framing long-range, layered mountain views. Additional view clearing is underway to maximize the vista. The open-concept main floor flows seamlessly into a chef's kitchen, complete with quartz countertops and backsplash, custom cabinetry, dual refrigerators, a walk-in pantry, and a generous center island with seating. Just off the kitchen, step out to a covered rear deck equipped with a vented gas fireplace. The primary ensuite resides on the main level for ease and privacy, featuring dual vanities, a tiled walk-in shower, and a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The second floor overlooks the main living area and includes two bedrooms (one ensuite), an office or bunk room, and another full bath. The lower level expands your entertainment space with a dedicated game room, beverage bar, fireplace, another full living area, and three additional bedrooms (one ensuite). Outdoor living options abound: enjoy a covered front porch with flagstone hardscape or step out from the lower level onto a patio featuring a firepit and hot tub hookup. Premium construction details include 5" white oak hardwood flooring, stained epoxy concrete, Marvin windows and doors, Kohler fixtures, dual fuel HVAC, and a Rinnai tankless water heater. Short-term rentals are permitted. Estimated completion early 2027. Detailed floor plans and new construction addendum are in supplements.
