Experience the quiet sophistication of mountain living in this thoughtfully crafted residence, where privacy, natural beauty, and everyday convenience exist in perfect balance. Nestled within the peaceful landscape of Mars Hill, the property offers the rare luxury of true tranquility just 23 minutes from Downtown Asheville—providing effortless access to acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, vibrant arts, and the city's celebrated culinary scene before returning home to the serenity of the mountains. Designed to embrace its surroundings, the home unfolds through expansive windows, warm natural textures, and curated finishes that create an atmosphere of understated elegance. Morning light fills the inviting solarium, offering a peaceful place to enjoy coffee, read, or simply watch the changing seasons transform the surrounding forest. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, appointed with premium appliances, generous preparation space, and seamless flow into the soaring great room, where vaulted spaces, abundant natural light, and effortless indoor-outdoor living create an exceptional setting for both intimate evenings and memorable gatherings. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers three spacious bedrooms, including two private ensuite retreats that provide exceptional comfort for owners and guests alike. Three beautifully appointed bathrooms feature refined materials and timeless finishes, creating spaces that feel both elegant and restorative. A dedicated home office offers an inspiring place to work, while a versatile bonus room easily adapts as a media lounge, fitness studio, library, or creative space. Every room has been designed with intention, balancing flexibility with a cohesive sense of warmth, comfort, and quiet refinement. The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary—generously proportioned and thoughtfully appointed, with calming views of the surrounding landscape and finishes selected to promote rest and renewal. Throughout the home, high-performance systems deliver year-round comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term peace of mind. Beneath its elegant interiors lies an equally impressive level of craftsmanship, anchored by a poured concrete wall foundation—an exceptional construction feature that provides remarkable structural integrity, durability, and confidence rarely found in mountain homes. Practical amenities have been integrated with the same level of care. A substantial lower-level storage area with exterior access offers abundant space for outdoor equipment, seasonal belongings, or workshop needs, while the attached two-car garage provides secure parking and additional storage. A generous wraparound porch extends the living experience outdoors, creating inviting spaces to entertain, unwind with a favorite book, or simply savor the peaceful rhythm of mountain life. Beautifully executed and impeccably maintained, this residence is more than a home—it is a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy a lifestyle defined by comfort, craftsmanship, and enduring quality. Blending timeless design with exceptional construction and an enviable location, it presents a rare opportunity to experience refined mountain living without compromise.

Remarkable to find such a private, rich farmland acreage for your special building site, retreat so close to both Burnsville and Mars Hill. Pristine, quiet and nestled at the top of ridge amongst old growth treed forest. Part of one of the special farms in our area. Owner will pave and gate the road only you and owner will use to access your properties. Can't see the other building lot, it's been very carefully designed for maximum privacy with views and underground utility amenities. Easy access, fully maintained, and so special a spot, you just have to go see for yourself. Building site permit has already been pulled and lot has been perked for 3 bedroom home.
