Tucked away on nearly nine private acres, this exceptional mountain estate offers the ideal blend of luxury, recreation, and timeless character just minutes from Asheville and Black Mountain. Thoughtfully sited within a beautifully landscaped woodland setting, the property offers exceptional privacy with low-maintenance grounds that blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings. The thoughtfully designed residence offers over 4,200 square feet of living space, blending generous gathering areas with comfortable everyday living. A three-car garage provides ample space for vehicles, recreational equipment and storage. Outdoor amenities are second to none, including a saltwater pool, tennis court and a playground area, creating a private retreat for family and guests alike. Adding to the property's extraordinary appeal, a picturesque creek winds through the property, where natural wading pools and gentle waterfalls create a peaceful soundtrack that can be enjoyed throughout the day. Beside the creek, a covered swinging bed offers the ideal place to relax with a book, enjoy an afternoon nap or simply take in the soothing sounds of flowing water. One of the estate's remarkable features is the original stone chimney from the late-1800s homestead, thoughtfully preserved as a centerpiece of the landscape and a lasting tribute to the property's rich history. Modern conveniences complement the peaceful mountain setting, including Starlink high-speed internet and a generator with a dedicated subpanel, providing backup power to essential systems during outages. The home also sustained no damage during Hurricane Helene, according to the owner, offering additional confidence in the property's quality and resilience. Whether entertaining by the pool, enjoying a match on the tennis court, exploring the creek or unwinding beneath the trees, every corner of this property invites you to slow down and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. Offering privacy, usable acreage, exceptional outdoor amenities, and an irreplaceable natural setting just minutes from Asheville and Black Mountain, 61 Scroops Drive presents a rare opportunity to own one of Swannanoa's distinctive mountain estates.
