Welcome to 272 Blue Bird Rd, Lake Lure, NC 28746
Offered at $765,000This exceptional 4-bedroom, 3-bath home is nestled in the prestigious gated resort community of Rumbling Bald. Originally built in 1986, it has undergone a complete, down-to-the-studs transformation that delivers the integrity and finishes of new construction while preserving the mature beauty of its established mountain setting.
Fully gutted from the studs up (with many studs replaced as well) and re-engineered with updated structural framing, high-efficiency R-15 insulation, all-new plumbing, and completely new electrical systems. Every surface, wire, and pipe is brand new. Mechanical upgrades include a tankless gas water heater, new propane gas furnace, new propane gas dryer, and an updated septic system (pumped in October). A brand-new Generac whole-home generator, connected to a newly installed underground propane tank, provides reliable off-grid power security.
Premium Garapa wood siding is installed with a 1-inch architectural rainscreen system for superior durability and ventilation. The home is crowned with a heavy-duty metal roof carrying a 25-year warranty and protected by brand-new LeafFilter gutters. Architectural-grade Marvin windows and doors are framed by custom industrial steel and aluminum railings. Expansive Garapa wood decks feature a specialized under-deck drainage system, ensuring the lower-level covered patios stay dry for year-round enjoyment.
A beautiful custom paver driveway is flanked by an engineered retaining wall, new rock steps, and professional exterior landscape lighting. The grounds are finished with premium Zoysia sod, a full multi-zone automated sprinkler system, and a built-in propane grill hookup. Notably, this is one of only a handful of homes in the community that offers true walkable grass on the property—an uncommon and highly desirable feature here.
Durable, 100% waterproof luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout an expanded layout centered by a dramatic spiral staircase. The custom kitchen features tailored cabinetry, thick-slab quartz countertops, and a suite of American-made appliances. Bathrooms showcase floor-to-ceiling tiled walk-in showers with heavy frameless glass enclosures. A beautiful new lower-level fireplace creates the perfect gathering spot for cool mountain evenings.
Interior details include Level 4 drywall finishes and thick, custom all-wood casings around doors and windows.
Located within the premier 3,000-acre gated resort of Rumbling Bald on Lake Lure, ownership includes exclusive access to outstanding amenities (club initiation fee of $11,000 applies): Two championship 18-hole mountain golf courses
Full-service spa and salon, fitness center, indoor pool, and zero-entry outdoor pool with lazy river
Private gated member marina, sandy beach access, boat rentals, and lakeside dining
This rare combination of complete renovation, walkable grassy grounds, and resort living offers an exceptional opportunity in one of Lake Lure’s most desirable communities.
