30 Apple Brandy Way, Burnsville, NC

Occupying a distinct vantage point within the gated Mountain Air community, this residence on Apple Brandy Way is defined by its thoughtful orientation toward the long-range mountain vistas and the manicured landscapes of the seventeenth fairway. The architecture, dating to 2000, emphasizes verticality and light, utilizing double-height ceilings and expansive glazing to integrate the interior with the surrounding 1.5-acre estate. Across 3,488 square feet, the four-bedroom floor plan manages a sophisticated balance between grand social spaces and private retreats, most notably a primary suite finished in knotty pine and a recently refined lower-level family room. The inclusion of two adjacent private lots ensures a rare degree of seclusion in a submarket where the preservation of view corridors is paramount to long-term value. For the collector of mountain retreats, this property offers an established footprint within one of Burnsville’s most guarded enclaves. Private viewings may be coordinated through Peters & Associates.
