Perched on a private knoll with front row seating to the Great Smoky Mountains and Lake Fontana, this timber frame log cabin offers the privacy, acreage, and views that Bryson City buyers dream of. Located at the end of a paved street, this home offers true seclusion without sacrificing easy access. The kitchen features ample cabinet and counter space, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a spacious pantry, and a breakfast bar that opens to the dining area. The living room impresses with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, skylights, and an XL stacked stone wood-burning fireplace. Just off the living room, a sunroom with floor-to-ceiling windows frames the mountain and lake views, with doors leading out to the covered wraparound deck. The main level also includes two large guest bedrooms, each with private deck access. Upstairs, the oversized master suite offers its own private side deck and a spa-like bath with a walk-in shower, a jetted tub, and a walk-in closet. A spacious loft overlooks the living area below. Downstairs, the fully remodeled basement is where the fun happens.
