Tucked beside conservation land and a peaceful brook, this custom-built home offers the perfect blend of privacy, quality, and natural beauty. Located in the Quail Forest community, it’s a rare opportunity to own a mountain retreat surrounded by lush mountain laurel. Step inside to find gleaming red oak floors, custom oak cabinetry and trim, and a beautifully updated kitchen with solid-surface countertops and premium appliances. The living room, centered around a gas log fireplace, flows seamlessly for both relaxing and entertaining. The spa-like primary bath features a jetted tub and walk-in shower, while dual Rheem heat pumps provide year-round comfort. Built with lasting quality—cementous siding, Peachtree windows, and a 50-year Elk roof—the home is as durable as it is charming. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the mountains from the 10-foot-wide wraparound porch or open rear deck. This is more than a home—it’s a peaceful mountain sanctuary.
