Your mountain retreat awaits in Pisgah Preserve at Lake James: a charming 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath square log home on 1.92 acres, adjoining 21 acres of common space that offer privacy and room to roam, with a finished basement that includes an exercise room (potential 4th bedroom), a dedicated entertainment area, office, full bath and a generous utility room for storage and projects. Two expansive decks—one particularly inviting and accessible from the primary suite—invite sunlit mornings and tranquil evenings, while a soaring living room features large windows and double sliding doors that open fully to the deck, framing sweeping views of South Mountain. The contemporary rustic design centers on a gourmet-style kitchen with custom cabinets and granite countertops, complemented by exposed wooden beams spanning the ceiling and a cozy propane standing fire stove that provides ambiance and reliable secondary heat. The main level hosts the primary bedroom and bath, a walk-in closet, the dining area, a laundry room, and a convenient half bath, while upstairs offers two bedrooms and a full bath for family or guests. The finished basement expands living space with an entertainment hub, an office for remote work or study, a full bath, and a standalone utility room that keeps systems neatly tucked away. Built with evident craftsmanship by The Powell Group, the home blends rugged mountain character with modern comfort, and it sits just steps from Pisgah National Forest—teeming with half a million acres of hiking, hunting, and camping opportunities. Lake James, Paddy’s Creek State Park, Fonta Flora Park, and Fonta Flora Brewery are all within 1–2 miles, with nearby wineries adding tasteful diversions after days of outdoor adventures. The property also features community amenities—a reading cabin, a fire pit, and a covered pavilion—that enhance a sense of belonging and a resort-like ease. Whether you’re seeking a year-round residence, a vacation haven, or a turnkey VRBO/Airbnb investment, this mountain escape offers stunning views, seamless indoor-outdoor living, and an invitation to savor every season in this picturesque corner of the mountains.
