Perched atop 33+ private acres in Swannanoa’s beautiful Bee Tree area, this custom home designed by award-winning architect Chris Larson, is thoughtfully positioned to capture long-range mountain views that stretch beyond the trees. Delivering a striking blend of craftsmanship, warmth, and intentional design, a dramatic two-story stone fireplace anchors the open-concept living space, framed by exposed timber beams, radiant-heated concrete floors, and expansive windows that flood the home with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is equal parts functional and beautiful, featuring high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, and a generous island, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor living areas. The main-level primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with a spa-like bath and direct access to the outdoors. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a versatile loft/bonus space offer flexibility for family, guests, or work. Outdoor living is where this property quietly shows off, with over 2,000SF of decks and patios, a screened porch, fenced yard, outdoor shower, and a private trail system winding through your own personal acreage. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car garage, tons of walk-in attic storage, and a highly functional mud/laundry area. This one-of-a-kind property offers a private setting that feels worlds away while still within easy reach of Asheville. Please no drive-bys…contact your agent for a showing today!
