Step inside and feel the warmth of this beautifully crafted Sapphire Valley home, where thoughtful design, inviting interiors, and peaceful surroundings create the perfect mountain escape. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on 0.81 acres in the Holly Forest community, the setting offers tranquility, privacy, and the gentle sounds of a nearby mountain stream. Inside, rich Australian Acacia hardwood floors run throughout the living spaces while abundant Pella Low-E Argon windows and sliders fill the vaulted great room with natural light. Anchoring the living space is a beautiful stone fireplace, creating an inviting focal point for gathering on cool evenings. The kitchen blends craftsmanship and function with custom wormy oak cabinetry, Brazilian and Montana granite countertops, pull-out cabinet drawers and built-in spice racks, a walk-in pantry, and a distinctive hand-hammered copper farmhouse sink featuring a mountain motif. The main-level primary suite is a relaxing retreat with dual walk-in closets and a spa-like bath accented by hand-hammered vessel sinks, custom Adirondack mirrors, and a striking copper soaking tub. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations. One bedroom connects to a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the second bedroom offers convenient hall access and a built-in desk. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a covered, screened porch featuring wood flooring and distinctive hog-wire accents and a stone-lined pathway leading to a firepit gathering area. The current owners have enhanced the landscaping with split-rail fencing, invisible pet fencing, a handrail along the stone steps to the firepit, and an improved driveway turnaround. Below the porch, the lower level provides generous storage space, currently used as a fitness area. It includes a free-standing infrared sauna and access to a clean-lined crawlspace. Additional features include fiber-optic internet, a Generac generator, Rinnai on-demand hot water, whole-house filtration, and quality finishes. Residents enjoy access to Sapphire Valley Resort amenities, including pools, golf, tennis, skiing, a fitness center, and Fairfield Lake. Convenient to Brevard, Cashiers, and Highlands and less than an hour from Asheville Regional Airport, this beautifully maintained home is offered fully furnished with designer-quality furnishings. Move-in ready and impeccably cared for, it offers a stunning mountain escape for the seasons ahead.
