Perched atop Heath Peak at over 4,500 feet, this private mountain retreat offers long-range North/Northeast views toward Cataloochee and a lifestyle defined by peace, privacy, and natural beauty. Enjoy morning coffee above the clouds and evenings by the firepit under the stars. Inside, rustic charm shines with wood floors, tongue-and-groove walls, and a dramatic two-story living room featuring a floor to-ceiling stone, wood-burning fireplace with sunken seating. The kitchen includes granite countertops, painted cabinets, and a pass-through bar, flowing into the dining room with a built-in china cabinet. Flexible living spaces include a main-level bedroom with attached sitting or hobby room, plus an upstairs bedroom and sleeping loft. The enclosed four-season room is ideal for entertaining year-round, complete with a bar and hot tub. Outdoor living is effortless with covered and open back decks perfect for grilling and taking in the views. Mature landscaping with rhododendrons and towering trees enhances the serene setting. Additional features include a full unfinished basement for storage or workshop, new roof (2025), partial replacement windows, and generator. Located 10 minutes to Maggie Valley, 20 to Waynesville, and 30 to Asheville or Cherokee—offering privacy without isolation and true mountain living. Pre-Inspected.
