An extraordinary opportunity to own one of few lakefront homes on coveted Beaver Lake. This fully reimagined 5BD/3.5BA contemporary retreat offers over 289 feet of shoreline and direct access to the walking trail in the heart of North Asheville. Clean architectural lines, soaring ceilings, and expansive windows create seamless indoor-outdoor living with tranquil lake and mountain views from nearly every room. Tucked beyond a short, steep driveway—your private entry to this hidden sanctuary—this home rewards with serenity, space, and natural light. Enjoy over 1,000ft of tiered decks and patios, a screened porch for morning coffee, and a luxurious main-level primary suite with sunset views. The open living area includes a dramatic 15-ft waterfall island and skylit ceilings. Downstairs features a cozy book nook, second primary suite, and flex space for fitness or play. Minutes from downtown, this rare lakefront gem offers an elevated Asheville lifestyle. Owner is licensed NC Broker.
