629 peaks drive

Wake up to layer upon layer of Blue Ridge peaks and go to bed under sunsets that take your breath away. As the sun sets, it casts a breathtaking cascade of color across the mountains, making it feel as though the entire sky has been staged solely for your eyes. This is your custom mountain retreat: sitting perched at the top of its own private, paved drive, with long-range views in nearly every direction. Inside, soaring ceilings and a fireplace anchor an open great room that flows seamlessly into a chef's kitchen boasting a show-stopping waterfall island, stunning custom tile work, and hand-selected finishes throughout. The primary suite offers a private retreat of its own -- room to unwind after a day spent taking in the scenery. Downstairs, a fully finished lower-level lounge -- complete with a home theater, dry bar, wine room, and whiskey wall -- makes this the ultimate gathering spot for game nights, movie marathons, or just unwinding with friends. Outdoor living is just as impressive. A huge screened-in porch offers a bug-free spot to relax any time of year, while multiple patios -- including one with an outdoor fireplace, plus a separate fire pit area overlooking the endless mountain views -- make this a home built for gathering under the stars. A stone-lined water feature cascades alongside the path leading to the detached guest house, which comes complete with its own cozy fireplace -- perfect for visitors, rental income, or multigenerational living. An additional metal garage offers extra storage or workshop space, all set on over 5 private, wooded acres, with additional acreage available for those wanting even more room to roam. Just a short drive to Fires Creek Wilderness Area, downtown Hayesville, downtown Murphy, and The John C. Campbell Folk School.
