Perched within the breathtaking natural beauty of Balsam Mountain Preserve, this exceptional four-bedroom, four-ensuite home combines refined mountain luxury with an extraordinary sense of place. Framed by panoramic mountain views and the soothing sounds of a nearby creek, the home offers a rare opportunity to experience the serenity, privacy, and adventure of life at elevation. The open-concept main level is designed for effortless living and entertaining, anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace in the living room and expansive windows that invite the surrounding landscape indoors. A beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen features a generous walk-in pantry and flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces. The true heart of the home may be the spectacular covered outdoor porch, where mountain living reaches its finest expression. Complete with a built-in grill, a striking two-sided stone fireplace, and ample room for both comfortable living and outdoor dining, it is an idyllic setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or evenings gathered around the fire. The lower level expands the home’s lifestyle possibilities with a spacious recreation room featuring a bar and its own fireplace, along with a flexible bonus space perfectly suited for a private exercise room, home gym, office, or wellness retreat. The lower-level deck offers additional outdoor living space, with room to create a private terrace and hot tub—an ideal retreat for soaking beneath the stars while surrounded by the sounds of nature. A uniquely level driveway provides exceptional convenience, a rare luxury in the mountains, while the home’s thoughtful design maximizes both indoor comfort and its remarkable natural setting. Just moments from miles of hiking trails and Balsam Mountain Preserve’s private Dark Ridge Camp, the property places outdoor adventure and world-class mountain amenities right at your doorstep. Elegant yet inviting, sophisticated yet deeply connected to nature, this is mountain living at its most extraordinary—a home where panoramic views, the sound of rushing water, fireside gatherings, and the beauty of Balsam Mountain become part of everyday life.
