Nestled in the lush canopy of the exclusive Melrose Mountain subdivision, this 2023-built retreat offers the pinnacle of modern mountain living. The home welcomes you directly into a stunning gourmet kitchen designed for the culinary enthusiast, featuring an oversized social island and a premium appliance suite with a Bosch dishwasher and a professional 36-inch Forno stove w/ cafe doors and Forno refrigerator. Just beyond the kitchen, the open-concept layout is flooded with natural light, revealing an airy great room anchored by a warm gas fireplace. The main level is thoughtfully designed for convenience and flow, featuring two bedrooms joined by a shared Jack-and-Jill bath and a functional hallway laundry. Upstairs, the privacy continues with a third bedroom featuring its own private ensuite bath, creating a secluded getaway or secondary suite. Outdoor living is maximized with a massive covered side deck—a private retreat in the trees ideal for alfresco dining or morning coffee as you enjoy the seasons unfold and the winter view —while a welcoming front porch provides a classic entry point to this light-filled contemporary gem. Residents of Melrose Mountain enjoy resort-style amenities, including two private lakes (one for swimming with a beach and one for fishing), a community dock, a picnic area, a clubhouse, and a tennis court that doubles for pickleball. Located just 30 minutes from the world-renowned Tryon International Equestrian Center and minutes from downtown Tryon’s boutiques, fine dining, and local vineyards, this home offers the perfect balance of Blue Ridge wilderness and luxury. All interior furniture included!

Don’t miss this very buildable 1.20 acre lot in Tryon's private gated community of Melrose Mountain. There is an old road on the left side of the property that could be used as a driveway to the gently sloping building area. The property is covered in native mountain laurel, rhododendron and various hardwoods. The Melrose Mountain community offers a separate fishing lake and swimming/paddling lake, complete with a picnic/beach area, stationary dock and storage for canoes, paddleboards & kayaks. There is also a clubhouse with a tennis/pickleball court and plenty of private gravel roads, which are maintained by the homeowner's association and are perfect for long walks. Water is supplied by a community well, and is included in the HOA fee. Seller financing with flexible payment options is available. Since this is a gated community and requires a code to enter it is best to contact an agent to tour the property.
