Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the breathtaking long-range western views of the Blue Ridge Mountain region. Unobstructed views can be appreciated all throughout the day, especially at sunset, through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the great room. This peaceful and inviting room features beautiful built-in bookcases to showcase the sound system, television, and provide plenty of space for display. The tongue and groove stained wood ceilings provide a contrasting backdrop for the incredible off-white beams, lighted with indirect light for a soft glow. The stunning great room flows into the dining room and the kitchen. Every dining experience will feel luxurious in this tranquil and open room. Floor to ceiling glass doors leading to an expansive deck allow sweeping views of the remarkable mountain vistas. Off white cabinets, butcher block islands, and dark granite counters set the stage for a functional kitchen. Entertaining family and friends is made easier in this gorgeous and spacious kitchen with updated appliances. Numerous floor to ceiling shallow cabinets provide maximum pantry space. Also located on the main floor is the grand master suite. This remarkable suite features a lovely foyer, a seating area with a gas stone fireplace, and plenty of space for a king size bed. The suite is surrounded by a wall of windows on one side, providing all day views of the mountains. A private deck with a seating area is just off the bedroom. In the suite, a hallway includes two separate walk in closets with custom shelving. Past the closets is the bright and elegant master bathroom featuring marble flooring, marble counters with double vanity, a standalone shower, and a Jacuzzi tub. On the opposite wing of the home there are three additional bedrooms, each with their own bathroom and closets, providing ample space and privacy for family and friends. The second level of the home boasts a large game room with a wet bar, entertainment center, full bath, and a kitchenette. Paneling and warm caramel colored walls surround the stone fireplace and built in bookcases, creating a warm and relaxing environment. A wall of windows and French doors provide incredible views of the mountains. Nearly every room of this home features magnificent long range views, being described as among the top 5 in Banner Elk. Privacy is enhanced with the addition of the adjoining lot, which was combined to create one parcel but could be divided and sold as a home site.
