Perched above 4,000 feet on more than 11 secluded acres, this log home in Glenville’s Big Ridge area offers a front-row seat to nature’s ever-changing beauty. Each season brings its own show with spring wildflowers and the return of songbirds, lush green canopies and cool mountain breezes in summer, brilliant foliage in autumn, and peaceful, snow-dusted stillness in winter. The western skies deliver unforgettable sunsets from the wraparound deck, painting the surrounding mountains in a vibrant array of shifting colors each evening.
Crafted with timeless log construction, the home’s warm, inviting interiors frame sweeping, year-round long- and short-range mountain views, with a dramatic rock face nearby. The living area features soaring cathedral ceilings, abundant windows that flood the space with natural light, and a wood-burning fireplace for cozy nights by the fire. The farmhouse kitchen — with its electric range, center island, breakfast bar, and rich soapstone countertops — balances rustic charm with everyday functionality and opens to an adjacent dining area ideal for gatherings.
The main-level primary suite offers direct deck access, a walk-in closet, a sliding barn door, and tranquil mountain vistas, offering a peaceful retreat at day’s end and an inspiring view to wake up to each morning. Upstairs, two spacious guest bedrooms and a full bathroom provide comfort and privacy for family and visitors.
The wraparound covered deck and front porch invite effortless outdoor living, perfect for sipping morning coffee, reading in warm sunlight, or simply taking in the ridgeline views. Landscaped grounds feature stone walls, a boulder rock garden, and trails that meander through native flora, enhancing the property’s natural beauty and sense of solitude. As evening falls, gather around the fire pit beneath a canopy of stars and feel entirely at peace in the stillness of the mountains.
Additional features include refinished wood floors throughout, a basement garage with a half bathroom, laundry, and ample storage, as well as a generator for added peace of mind. Conveniently located just a short drive from Lake Glenville, Happ’s Place, and The Local, and about 30 minutes from downtown Cashiers, this quintessential mountain retreat captures the rhythm of the seasons and the pure art of sunset living in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
