Tucked into the trees in the sought-after community of Olivette, this custom mountain modern home by Jade Mountain Builders is a seamless blend of architectural design, craftsmanship, smart technology and natural beauty. Striking rooflines, warm wood siding, stacked stone accents, and dramatic walls of glass create a bold architectural statement. Inside, refined finishes and intentional details define every space. The main living area is framed by expansive windows that capture the surrounding forest, filling the home with light and an ever-present connection to nature. In the winter months, enjoy views and sounds of the French Broad River shimmering through the trees—a rare and peaceful seasonal bonus. A stunning custom built-in shelving wall anchors the space, offering both artistry and function. The chef’s kitchen is a modern showpiece—sleek black cabinetry, rich wood accents, exposed beams, and polished concrete floors with radiant heat for added comfort. A generous island invites gathering and conversation, blending sophistication with warmth in true mountain modern style. Above the garage, a full luxury studio apartment offers exceptional flexibility—perfect for guests, extended family/in-law suite, rental income, or a private home office. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully finished, it mirrors the quality and aesthetic of the main residence. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with covered terraces and elevated balconies designed to immerse you in the peaceful wooded setting. Or enjoy hanging out in the backyard down by the firepit. There is also a fenced in side yard for your 4-legged companion animal. And then there’s Olivette. Set along the French Broad River, this one-of-a-kind community offers river frontage, vineyards, a working community farm, miles of walking and biking trails, a dog park, and acres of preserved green space. Just minutes from Asheville, yet worlds away, Olivette is known for its architectural integrity, sustainability, and vibrant sense of community. This is more than a home. It’s refined mountain living. Furnishings are negotiable.
