Nestled on 12.20 acres, this spectacular Barndominium blends rugged outdoor appeal with refined, contemporary design just minutes from Lake James—about 1500 feet away with multiple access points—and the Fonta Flora Trail for biking and hiking nearby. The area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, with North Carolina’s largest state park (South Mountain) and nearly 500,000 acres of Pisgah National Forest, plus the Blue Ridge Parkway, all within reach, about 1.5 hours to Charlotte Douglas International Airport and roughly an hour to ski lodges. Inside, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is “over-the-top” in both extras and craftsmanship, featuring a standing-seam metal roof accents, a dramatic 20-foot double rock fireplace (gas in the interior, wood-burning exterior), and cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams and a giant ceiling fan. The front hall reveals T&G burnt wood walls and a maple-tree log used as a post, while oversized windows and a partially open-to-outdoors entertainment area—with a front-facing mini garage door—invite the outdoors in. A state-of-the-art kitchen showcases rustic concrete countertops, custom cabinetry, a center island, and high-end appliances, complemented by ultra-efficient multi-zone HVAC. The property includes about 2,400 square feet of garage space with oversized doors, eliminating off-site storage and offering ample room for prized collections. A fenced, gated entrance and concrete driveway provide secure, convenient access, and the planned pool area next to the entertaining space hints at even more lifestyle possibilities. This is truly a one-of-a-kind home that will leave a lasting impression; prequalification or proof of funds is required to schedule a showing.
