    What's special

    Tucked away on more than 3.8 private acres above Laurel Ridge Country Club, this classic mountain retreat is the kind of home that’s becoming increasingly rare — solidly built, full of character, and surrounded by nothing but woods, long-range mountain views, and complete serenity. While the interior reflects its era, the home offers exceptional space, timeless architectural details, and incredible potential for someone who appreciates authenticity over trend. Vaulted beam ceilings, massive stone fireplaces, walls of windows, and expansive wraparound decks create a warm lodge-like atmosphere that feels perfectly at home in the mountains. The floor plan offers generous living areas, a large kitchen with island, multiple fireplaces, and nearly 2,700 square feet of living space designed to bring the outdoors in. The setting is what truly sets this property apart. Perched in the trees at approximately 3,200 feet elevation, the home feels like a private woodland sanctuary while still being only minutes from downtown Waynesville, golf, dining, and Laurel Ridge Country Club. The long private drive, mature landscaping, and secluded decks make the property feel peaceful and hidden away from the world. This is not a cookie-cutter renovation project — it’s a well-loved mountain home with great bones, incredible privacy, and the opportunity to update at your own pace while preserving the charm and craftsmanship that make it special. Perfect for buyers seeking a true mountain retreat with acreage, views, and character in one of Waynesville’s most desirable areas.
