Stunning winner of 2025 Parade of Homes Gold Awards for Craftsmanship and Green Certification perched above the Reems Creek Valley and adjacent to its headwaters - 310 acres protected through a conservation easement with Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy. Expansive glass and natural materials seamlessly connect this home to the surrounding forest and distant mountain views. A restrained palette of concrete & steel, charred cypress, white oak & black walnut, and consistent, minimalist details allow nature to be the focal point. Enter through the sunken patio garden into the heart of the home under a 2,000sf living roof. An open floor plan spans the inviting glass-lined living room, a gracious central dining area, and flows through a 16ft wide opening to the covered porch with panoramic mountain sunsets. The stunning sunrise-kissed kitchen inspires culinary creativity with warm wood tones & clean quartzite countertops paired with the finest Fisher & Paykel integrated appliances, the perfect pantry, and a baker's nook. The primary bedroom boasts some of the best views in the house. Enjoy an elevated en-suite bath with quarter sawn oak cabinetry, a handmade tile & frameless glass shower, and a well appointed walk-in closet. An upper level office provides a close, yet secluded workspace with astounding long range & forest views. Downstairs is centered on a sumptuous media lounge that's open to a covered patio and big beautiful views. Two bedrooms flex into one shared space with a retractable wall. The game & fitness room works for anything, including a large fourth bedroom. And there's a secure & conditioned 6x12 wine cellar. Back on main, an oversized carport lends access to a conditioned workshop/studio space that can easily connect for an expanded primary suite. Minimalism has been maximized with a conscious curation of exactly what one needs. Sustainability & efficiency abound as this home earns the record highest GreenBuilt Platinum Level Net Zero and Regenerative certifications in NC. A 15.79 kW solar system with 15 kW of battery storage keeps the power on even if grid is down. Comfort & healthy indoor air quality are certain with 2 geothermal heat pumps providing radiant floor heat, ducted cooling, and whole house ventilation & dehumidification. Ask for attached specifications, floor plans, awards & certifications. This place embodies intentional design, award winning craftsmanship and green building techniques, and an eco-conscious, luxury lifestyle. A second building lot is included with direct access to Elk Mtn and offers another home site that supports mutual privacy. Two other adjacent lots and significant additional acreage available.
