Experience exceptional privacy, breathtaking long-range Blue Ridge Mountain views, and over 10 private acres in the gated Creston community. Spanning three parcels, this architect-designed mountain retreat offers the perfect combination of seclusion, self-sufficiency, and modern convenience.
Designed for flexibility and independence, the property features a whole-home generator, high-speed internet, and a separate guest cottage ideal for a home office, remote-work headquarters, creative studio, or private guest accommodations.
The 3,000+ square foot main residence showcases expansive windows that capture stunning mountain vistas, an open-concept floor plan, coffered ceilings, a stone fireplace, and a gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops, a JennAir gas range, commercial hood, large center island, and walk-in pantry. Thoughtful design throughout creates a seamless connection between indoor living and the surrounding natural beauty.
The detached three-bedroom guest cottage offers tremendous versatility for visiting family and friends, multi-generational living, a dedicated workspace, or additional guest accommodations.
Located just 7 miles from Black Mountain and approximately 25 miles from Asheville, you'll enjoy peaceful mountain living without sacrificing access to dining, shopping, and entertainment.
