Perched at nearly 5,000 feet with sweeping long-range views, this fully furnished luxury retreat is the ultimate High Country escape — the kind of place where you'll count down the days until your next visit. And when you're not here? It can work for you, too, grossing over $100K annually for the past two years. Step inside and feel the mountain exhale. Soaring tongue-and-groove cathedral ceilings, a warm stone fireplace, and walls of expansive windows frame breathtaking southern views–flooding the space with natural light and the kind of scenery that never gets old. The open floor plan is where this home truly shines — living, dining, and kitchen flow seamlessly together, making it just as easy to host a lively dinner party as it is to sprawl out on the couch with a good book and a mountain view. The chef's kitchen keeps pace beautifully, featuring a farmhouse sink, center island, generous prep space, and a sunny breakfast nook. Slide open the doors to the partially covered wraparound deck, where a porch swing overlooks the views and a firepit table sets the scene for unforgettable evenings under the stars. The main-level primary suite is your personal sanctuary — complete with deck access, a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, double vanities, and a huge walk-in closet. A second bedroom, full bath, and laundry room round out the main level. Upstairs, is flexible loft for a yoga space, reading nook, or home office, alongside two more bedrooms, and full bath. The lower level is pure fun: a second living room with fireplace, bar area, game space, bunk room, and direct access to a bubbling hot tub. An attached two-car garage and main-level carport make unloading skis, groceries, and luggage effortless. Best of all — built in 2021, this home is essentially worry-free, with modern systems and finishes that require minimal upkeep. Set in a small gated community just 3 miles from Beech Mountain Ski Resort, 4 miles from downtown Banner Elk's shops and restaurants, and just a few miles more to nearby Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, this is the mountain home you've been waiting for. Come for the views. Stay for the lifestyle. Let it earn when you're away.
