About the home

Buyer's financing fell through...Now is your opportunity to make this home yours!! Prepare to be captivated by a residence where luxury, grandeur, and the majesty of the panoramic mountains converge. This castle-inspired custom estate rises from 10.25 unrestricted acres like a private kingdom, offering breathtaking mountain views and an atmosphere of pure serenity. What a perfect wedding venue or winery the property could be! With 4,859 square feet of exquisite living space—and a heated, unfinished basement and its own fireplace ready to be transformed into additional living quarters—this home is a rare masterpiece of craftsmanship and imagination. A newly installed roof ensures the estate’s enduring beauty for years to come. Step inside and let the drama unfold with the vaulted view as you enter the home. A soaring great room welcomes you beneath pine ceilings, anchored by a towering stone fireplace and illuminated by natural light that pours in from every angle. The gourmet kitchen is a showpiece of custom cabinetry, generous island seating, and refined details designed for both culinary mastery and unforgettable gatherings. The formal dining room elevates every meal into a celebration, while a main-level study, piano room, or den offers a refined retreat for quiet moments or creative inspiration. Two luxurious primary suites—one on the main floor and one on the second floor—offer private sanctuaries, with the upper-level suite boasting its own stone fireplace, private deck with a view, and expansive his-and-hers closets. Two additional bedrooms, three versatile bonus rooms, and dual laundry rooms deliver unmatched convenience and flexibility for modern living. Throughout the home, every detail is intentional: dramatic ceilings, custom trim, premium finishes, and craftsmanship you can feel in every corner. Wide covered porches and multiple decks create sweeping vantage points for taking in the ever-changing canvas of mountain vistas. And outside… the magic continues. A sparkling pool, an enchanting gazebo, a wraparound front porch, multiple porches, a stone fireplace, and an expansive patio come together to create the ultimate backdrop for celebration, relaxation, or quiet reflection. With 10.25 unrestricted acres, the possibilities are boundless—build, expand, garden, explore, or craft the private homestead you’ve always imagined. It is 16 miles from the Tryon Equestrian Center. This is more than a home. It’s an experience. A destination. A dream waiting to be lived.
