About the home

Live the elevated mountain lifestyle at over 4,500 feet in The Lodges at Eagles Nest, one of the most sought-after luxury gated communities in Banner Elk and the North Carolina High Country. Located in the desirable Great Camp section, this exceptional luxury mountain home offers long-range Blue Ridge mountain views, quality craftsmanship, and an ideal layout for multigenerational living, a second home, or a mountain retreat. What truly sets this home apart is how comfortable and livable it feels. While undeniably impressive, this is not a home designed simply as a showpiece—it is a home designed to be enjoyed. Three levels of living are easily accessible via elevator. The main living area features soaring ceilings, a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and expansive windows showcasing long-range Blue Ridge views. The kitchen is built for gathering, with an oversized island, leathered granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, a full pantry, and generous prep space. Just off the kitchen, a large butler’s pantry and laundry room combination adds even more storage and functionality. The oversized dining area easily accommodates large gatherings, with room for everyone around the table. With six bedrooms and six-and-a-half baths, this home offers exceptional flexibility for family and guests and is offered furnished. Four bedrooms feature ensuite baths, while three include double closets. Storage is exceptional throughout, with abundant closets. Gathering spaces extend well beyond the main living room. The lower level is a retreat all its own, featuring a comfortable secondary living area, separate game room, two custom bunk rooms, an additional bedroom, and direct access to the hot tub. Designed with multigenerational living in mind, this level creates the perfect setup for kids, teens, or guests to have their own space while still feeling connected to the home. Each bunk room includes its own secret hideaway. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A stunning covered deck just off the dining area features a stone fireplace and inviting seating area for year-round enjoyment. A separate outdoor fire pit creates the perfect setting for cool mountain evenings under the stars while taking in the layered Blue Ridge Mountain views. Additional features include an oversized two-car garage and a separate ATV garage with direct access to Eagle’s Nest’s renowned trail system. While not intended as a high-yield investment property at this price point, the home does generate approximately $100,000 in rental income annually, making it an excellent option for offsetting ownership costs when not in personal use. Whether you are searching for a full-time residence, luxury vacation home, or mountain getaway with income potential, this home offers an exceptional opportunity in one of the High Country’s premier communities. Eagle’s Nest is known as a luxury adventure community, and amenities include ATV trails, hiking, pickleball, tennis, mini golf, an outdoor amphitheater, dining, Eagles Nest Winery, and Epic Chophouse, making this one of the most desirable luxury lifestyle communities in the Southeast.
