About This Property

Perched above the landscape, this custom mountain retreat at The Coves Mountain River sits on 1.6 acres, perfectly balanced with natural beauty and elevated living. An inviting flagstone front porch and double mahogany doors welcome you to a spacious foyer with cedar vaulted ceiling. Past the formal dining area is the great room, where floor-to-ceiling windows showcase dramatic multi-layered mountain views. Natural light balances warm rich tones of red oak floors, distinctive wood framing, and a stone fireplace with 100-year-old hand-hewn wood mantel. In the Chef’s kitchen, luxury, organization, and functionality are maximized. Timeless, maple cabinets offer abundant storage. Warm under-cabinet lighting illuminates the workspace and highlights elegant granite surfaces below. An 8 ft island is the central hub, w/granite countertop and bar seating. The kitchen is equipped with premium Thermodor appliances: 5 burner gas stove, wall oven microwave combo, dishwasher. A beverage fridge keeps your favorite drinks perfectly chilled and easily accessible. A custom walk-in pantry provides immense organizational storage space. Just off the kitchen is a striking, half-octagon keeping room; wrap-around windows create a bright inviting gathering spot or quiet place to start your day. Step out to the stunning back porch, with low-maintenance composite decking underfoot, and above, a vaulted wood ceiling peaks with dramatic cross-beams.
