Escape to a private mountain sanctuary in the premier gated community of Laurel Ridge, which borders protected conservation land and a watershed. This sophisticated storybook estate offers ultimate privacy just minutes from downtown Black Mountain. A rare flat driveway welcomes you to a multi-generational retreat or investment gem with short-term rentals permitted. The main light and airy cabin features a covered rocking-chair front porch and a traditional wood-burning fireplace. A bright dining/sunroom boasts heated floors and a gas fireplace, while the upstairs primary suite offers vaulted ceilings with immersive nature views. Follow the architectural catwalk to a separate, modern second living quarters—perfect to live in one and rent the other. Outside, a flagstone path winds through beautifully wooded grounds, leading to a whimsical tree house with a deck, a private putting green, hanging swings and a babbling creek. Equipped with a whole-house generator and ample custom built-ins, this estate is a rare find.
