Discover refined mountain living in the gated Homestead at Mills River, where exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and seamless indoor–outdoor living define this custom retreat. Offering 4,486 square feet of heated living space, this home features a main-level primary suite with a spa-inspired en suite bath, along with three additional upstairs bedrooms—each with its own private en suite. A well-placed half bath provides added convenience for everyday living and entertaining.
A dramatic retractable glass wall anchors the great room, opening to a spacious covered deck with retractable screens, a natural gas fireplace, and a built-in grilling station—creating a year-round extension of the living space. The chef’s kitchen is designed for gathering, complemented by a wine room, wet bars, and dual laundry rooms for effortless functionality.
The exterior is equally inviting, offering a fenced backyard, professionally designed landscaping, and a flagstone fire pit—perfect for quiet evenings or hosting family and friends. Built with lasting quality, the home includes whole-house water filtration with reverse osmosis, an encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidification, two tankless water heaters, and a whole-house generator for peace of mind.
Residents enjoy the privacy and security of this gated community, along with an exceptional riverfront clubhouse overlooking the Mills River, scenic walking trails, and beautifully maintained common areas. Ideally located minutes from Hendersonville, Asheville Regional Airport, shopping, dining, breweries, golf, and endless outdoor recreation, this home offers a rare blend of luxury, comfort, and convenience.
Built for the way you live today—and designed to be enjoyed for years to come.
