    What's special

    Rarely does a property of this caliber, in such a tightly held enclave, become available. Welcome to 21 River Sound, a standout residence located in the highly sought-after Lodges at Eagles Nest in Banner Elk. This home sits within a four-cabin section of the Eagles Nest River Club, a location so coveted that only one other cabin has changed hands in the twelve years since they were built. This is a singular opportunity to obtain a piece of the mountain that almost never hits the market. The experience here is defined by the Elk River. Positioned so you can both see and clearly hear the rushing water from your expansive back deck, the home offers a constant, soul-soothing connection to the natural landscape. This is a Kidder-built masterpiece, showcasing the high-end craftsmanship and structural integrity the builder is known for. Inside, you will find massive upgrades that set this home apart, including rich hardwood floors throughout the entire first floor. The great room is anchored by a magnificent floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, perfectly complemented by custom cabinetry and unique laurel railings that bring an organic, artisanal feel to the interior. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated, from the intricate custom tile mosaic work to the high-quality window treatments. For those looking for a seamless transition to mountain life, this home is move-in ready and comes fully furnished. It is not just a house; it is a complete lifestyle package. The property is set in a park-like atmosphere with ample space for picnics and outdoor activities, including a stocked wood fire pit for cool Carolina evenings under the stars. Just a short 200-yard stroll away is the River Clubhouse, where you can enjoy family games, dining areas, big-screen TVs, and the sounds of live music that periodically fills the valley. Anglers will find themselves in a true paradise, as the home is adjacent to multiple fishing ponds stocked with trout and bass, in addition to the premier trout fishing found right on the river. While this section of the River Club feels like a tucked-away sanctuary, you are never far from the adventure. The entrance to the full suite of Eagles Nest mountain activities is located directly across the street, providing effortless access to the winery, UTV trails, and the Great Camp. This is a rare chance to own a meticulously maintained, custom-crafted home in the most limited section of one of the High Country’s most distinguished communities. Turn the key and start your legacy on the river today.
