Perched at 4,000 feet atop Little Terrapin Mountain in Cashiers, North Carolina, this remarkable residence offers sweeping mountain views with breathtaking panoramas of Whiteside Mountain, Shortoff Mountain, Yellow Mountain, Devil’s Courthouse, and Scaly Mountain in an ever-changing masterpiece of light and landscape.
Covered balconies extend from each of the three bedrooms, providing an ideal space to enjoy the cool mountain breezes, while the expansive teak deck with its striking stone fireplace creates an unrivaled setting for outdoor entertaining. The primary suite is also perfectly positioned to showcase the stunning views.
Inside, luxury meets craftsmanship at every turn. Shiplap walls and oak flooring bring warmth and character, while the soaring living room fireplace anchors the home with timeless style. The chef’s kitchen is designed to impress with a Wolf range, black granite countertops, and a Carrara marble island that invites gathering and conversation.
Each bedroom features a spa-like ensuite bathroom with heated floors, offering comfort and indulgence for every guest. On the same floor as the guest suites, a bonus room with a wet bar serves as an oasis for relaxation and activities, or as an office with the stunning mountain views sparking inspiration and contemplation. Thoughtfully designed for modern living, this home also includes a spacious lower-level family room and an outdoor firepit. Comfort and security are provided by cameras, smart wiring and devices, high-speed internet, an on-demand water heater, and a whole-house generator.
Whether hosting family and friends or savoring the solitude of the mountains, this exceptional property delivers the perfect blend of natural beauty, refined finishes, and peace of mind.
