LAKE LURE

Discover the pinnacle of mountain living with this stunning 1.5-story retreat on 3.18 private, wooded acres in Rumbling Bald. This 2011 log-sided site-built masterpiece blends rustic charm with modern elegance, offering three spacious bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths designed for comfort and grand-scale entertaining. From the moment you go onto the stone-accented front porch and through the antique 150-year-old solid oak front door with original leaded stained glass, you are greeted by an open floor plan that celebrates natural textures and high-end finishes. The heart of the home is a magnificent great room featuring soaring wood-plank ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone wood burning fireplace that promises cozy evenings after a day on the lake. Large windows bathe the honey-toned wood walls in natural light, framing breathtaking year-round views of the mountains and water. The chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, anchored by a sleek stainless steel farmhouse sink and a massive granite island with a breakfast bar. Premium appliances, including a gas range and microwave, are complemented by rich cabinetry and a custom tile backsplash, making it a hub for holiday hosting or quiet morning coffees. Go outside onto the expansive deck to experience the magic of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Whether you are taking in the long-range vistas or enjoying the quiet rustle of the surrounding forest, the outdoor living space is unparalleled. This property is more than just a home; it is an entry into a resort lifestyle. As part of a premier gated community, you will enjoy access to a private beach, lake access, restaurants, salon and spa. For the active soul, the community offers a fitness center, pickleball, two golf courses, hiking trails and even a business center for those who want to work where they play. Practicality meets luxury with thoughtful upgrades including a tankless water heater, central air and a generator for peace of mind. The home also features a substantial basement area, providing ample space for a media room, office or hobby workshop. Quick access to local restaurants and grocery stores, this retreat offers a balance of secluded mountain privacy and convenient access to world-class amenities. Basement was finished at a later date by owner without permits except for mini-split, tankless water heater and gas lines.
