Property Description
This beautifully transformed mountain home in Banner Elk, NC offers breathtaking long-range views, a guest house with heated workout room below, and is a gardener's dream on 3 lovingly maintained acres with 3 greenhouses, raised beds, and a barn. The property sits just under 4,000 ft elevation. From the foyer, you're welcomed into a bright and open space with soaring cathedral ceilings and expansive windows that showcase the stunning scenery. Two impressive living areas—each with vaulted ceilings—anchor the home on either side, offering expansive space for relaxing and entertaining. Step out from the grand living areas to an expansive deck with panoramic views. At the center of the home, the kitchen shines with a dramatic “Atlas” granite island, and features Wolf wall ovens and a Wolf professional gas range and hood. It's truly the heart of the home, made for gathering and is open to the large dining area. Just off the kitchen, a well-appointed custom pantry adds extra storage and prep space. The second living area features a striking fireplace with a Jøtul wood stove insert, framed by bricks reclaimed from pre–Civil War structures—a distinctive architectural detail that adds historic character. The main level also includes an office off the foyer, two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry room. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a balcony to sit and watch the sun rise and spa-like bathroom with soaking tub. The lower level includes a home office and workshop, with walk-out access to the gardens. Stroll the grounds to find raspberry beds, a charming potting shed, and the guest house with kitchenette, full bath, and lower-level fitness room--for guests, rental income, or remote work. The three greenhouses allow for year-round growing, while the barn provides space for tools, equipment, or animals. Less than 10 minutes from Banner Elk, and 11 minutes to Mast General Store in Valle Crucis, this property is a rare blend of beauty, flexibility, and lifestyle.
