    What's special

    Refined finishes throughoutStone columnsCustom millworkLushly landscaped backyardVibrant dahlia gardenVaulted ceilingsCharming courtyard
    Tucked into the highly sought-after Stillmont community in Cashiers, North Carolina, this exceptional estate showcases the signature vision of acclaimed architect Jim Fox, thoughtfully reimagined in 2024 to blend timeless design with modern livability. Perfectly sited on a rare, flat lot, the property captures breathtaking, unobstructed views of Whiteside Mountain—one of the region’s most iconic natural landmarks. A sense of calm and arrival begins in the welcoming foyer, where a serene waterfall and living greenery create an immediate connection to nature. The main residence unfolds effortlessly into a stunning great room, where vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, stone columns, and custom millwork define the architectural character. Walls of glass draw the outdoors in, leading seamlessly to a screened porch anchored by a stone fireplace—an ideal setting to enjoy cool mountain evenings while taking in the dramatic views. The open-concept kitchen and dining area are designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring curated art shelving, integrated lighting, and a natural flow into the great room. The spacious primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with expansive windows framing the mountain view, a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub, oversized shower, and refined finishes throughout. On the opposite wing, a cozy guest suite with its own fireplace offers comfort and privacy for visitors. Complementing the main home is a beautifully appointed two-bedroom guest house, echoing the same high level of craftsmanship with warm woods, stonework, and architectural detail. Guests will enjoy a kitchenette, inviting great room with fireplace, and a versatile terrace-level flex space. A separate office with a full bath, located just off the carport, provides an ideal work-from-home or studio environment. Outdoor living is equally captivating, with thoughtfully designed spaces that blur the line between interior and exterior. A vibrant dahlia garden, tranquil water features, a charming courtyard, and a lushly landscaped backyard create a setting that is both inspiring and restorative. More than a home, this is a private mountain sanctuary—an extraordinary offering where architecture, nature, and lifestyle come together in perfect harmony.
