Property Description

Some estates are defined by the home. Others by the land. This one is defined by both. Follow the ripple of Crabtree Creek along a gently winding road that reads like a storybook, past peaceful green space and shimmering ponds until the main event reveals itself. A grand stone porte cochere welcomes you to a custom residence set on more than 16 private, unrestricted acres in the Upper Crabtree corridor, long known for its idyllic living, flowing streams and cool mountain breezes. The home was built by the area's preeminent custom builder, a name trusted in Western North Carolina for more than 45 years for the highest quality construction and an eye for artistry and intention. All around it, the land unfolds like a dream, a rare blend of pastoral grade, three ponds stocked with bass, bream and more and meandering trails, offering far more usable ground than the acreage of this size typically allows. The estate borders conservation land, so the energy and ambiance you feel here today are preserved tomorrow. Inside, the two-story great room rises around a one-of-a-kind floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, the kind of centerpiece that cannot be replicated and does not need to be explained. Immaculate hardwood floors carry through the main living space and the open chef's kitchen, keeping room and dining area flow effortlessly into one another, so cooking, conversation and gathering all happen together. The primary suite is its own sanctuary. A custom stone fireplace warms the room and the bath offers double vanities with custom cabinetry, a walk-in tile shower and a soaking tub framed by picture windows, alongside a large walk-in closet. Upstairs, an oversized loft, two ensuite bedrooms and a dedicated office give family and guests room to spread out, with privacy built into the plan. With fiber optic internet available in the area, working from home here can be a reality. The lower level is stubbed and ready to finish as desired. Currently serving as a home gym, it is envisioned as a bedroom suite and family room, which the four-bedroom septic easily allows. The oversized attached two-car garage adds extra storage. Go outside and the setting takes center stage. More than 2,400 square feet of covered decks wrap the home, looking out over rippling water, green fields, nearby mountains and a sea of rhododendron and mountain laurel that shine through late spring and early summer. These are spaces that get lived in through all kinds of mountain weather, not just the perfect days. Past the decks, wandering trails wind throughout the property, around the ponds and across the grounds, so a scenic mornings or an easy evening adventure never requires getting in the car. Your own personal network of paths is right outside the door, ready whenever you are, with preserved land along the border keeping the scenery unspoiled. Apart from the main residence, a separate 1,700-square-foot barn expands what this estate can be. Today it offers generous, dedicated storage for everything a property of this scale calls for. Tomorrow it could become a guest house, giving visitors and extended family a retreat of their own while keeping the main home entirely yours. For buyers in the market for an equestrian estate, the barn, unrestricted acreage and gentle rolling terrain offer a natural setting to bring horses home. Few estates offer so much flexibility already in place. Historic Waynesville is 15 minutes away and Asheville is 30, close enough for all you need and far enough that you will rarely want to leave. Properties like this do not come along often. 16 usable acres with ponds, trails and protected surroundings. A home built by a master of the craft, with room to grow inside and out. A single owner who has cared for each detail to the highest level for years. It is the kind of estate that people spend a long time searching for and hold onto once they find it. For the buyer who has been waiting for the extraordinary, the wait is over. Welcome home.
