Mountain living reaches a new level in this exceptional rustic retreat where classic log architecture, soaring rooflines, and timeless lodge-inspired character create an unforgettable setting tucked within a private wooded landscape. All with deeded Lake Blue Ridge access! Inside, the thoughtfully designed interior blends warm mountain style with modern comfort, featuring an open-concept living area anchored by a dramatic 2-story stone fireplace and expansive windows that fill the space with natural light while showcasing peaceful treetop views. The chef's kitchen is designed to impress with top-of-the-line KitchenAid and Viking stainless steel appliances, a copper farm sink, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a large working island with breakfast bar seating, and a wine chiller.
