About the home

Above the shimmering waters of Lake Fontana, this refined contemporary mountain retreat offers a rare blend of privacy, sophistication and natural beauty. On 2.3-plus acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the prestigious Rockledge community, the home commands sweeping panoramic views of the lake and expansive forested landscape below, a setting that feels secluded and endlessly inspiring. Featuring three bedrooms and 4.5 baths, the residence is designed for modern mountain living with an emphasis on light, space, and seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The open great room is anchored by a striking stone fireplace and flows effortlessly into the gourmet kitchen, creating an inviting environment for entertaining or relaxing in comfort. Walls of glass and multi-glide sliding doors bathe the interior in natural light and open onto an expansive rear deck, where unobstructed lake and mountain views provide a breathtaking backdrop for every gathering. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. A sparkling swimming pool and stone firepit in the front yard evoke the spirit of summer mountain living, offering an ideal setting for evenings under the stars, family gatherings and unforgettable moments with friends. The finished lower level expands the home’s versatility with an en-suite guest bedroom, custom-built six bunk beds for family and visitors, and a flex room ideally suited for a media lounge, office, gym or hobby space. Thoughtful design throughout ensures comfort, function and elegance at every turn. Rockledge is intentionally crafted as a mountain retreat, free from the formality and obligations of traditional upscale club communities. There are no initiation fees or club dues, attracting those who seek a personal hideaway rather than a social obligation. Here, residents come to escape, recharge and reconnect with nature. The community thoughtfully blends distinctive residences with generous conservation areas that preserve the natural topography and character of the land. At the heart of Rockledge is the private Rockledge Lodge, offering sweeping views of Fontana Lake and surrounding mountains in an atmosphere of relaxed rustic elegance. A two-story marina pavilion becomes a favorite gathering spot in the late afternoons, while miles of trails invite hiking and biking adventures. Additional amenities include swimming, boating and endless opportunities to explore the outdoors. Just above the Nantahala Outdoor Center, this property provides immediate access to world-class kayaking, rafting, hiking and mountain biking, making it an exceptional destination for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages. This remarkable home is more than a residence, it is a private mountain sanctuary where luxury, nature, freedom and lifestyle converge in harmony. Few properties offer such an extraordinary combination of views, privacy, design and access to adventure.
