Property Description
Perched at 4,600' on a private ridgeline, this Al Platt-designed home in Balsam Mountain Preserve offers stunning sunrise and sunset views in a conservation community where 3,200 of 4,400 acres are permanently protected. With heart pine floors reclaimed from the Ivey Cotton Mill, oversized windows, and radiant heat on the lower level, the home blends rustic charm with thoughtful design. The main-level layout includes 3 bedrooms with ensuite baths and a bonus room/office with its own half bath, connected by a breezeway for privacy and flexibility. Outdoor living shines with a screened porch with wood-burning fireplace, wrap-around deck, and flagstone patio—all surrounded by native landscaping. The small, close-knit neighborhood encourages connection and shared appreciation for the land. Enjoy access to Balsam Mountain Preserve's amenities including golf, equestrian center, nature center, dining, and more. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle rooted in nature and community.
