Welcome to 1142 Vista Way, an exceptional mountain retreat in the gated community of Linville Ridge. This beautifully designed home offers one-level living with over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully crafted space, blending comfort, functionality and breathtaking natural surroundings. Originally permitted for four bedrooms, the home is configured as three spacious bedrooms plus a dedicated office, easily adaptable as a fourth bedroom to suit your needs. The expansive primary suite is a sanctuary, featuring its cozy fireplace, a fully updated en-suite bath, and a grand walk-in closet designed for style and convenience.
Enjoy the best of mountain living year-round, with cool summer temperatures and inviting outdoor spaces.
