Perched to capture sweeping, panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the dramatic face of Scaly Mountain, 984 King Gap Road is a beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed retreat offering comfort, privacy, and effortless mountain living.
The main level features a seamless flow, beginning with a well-appointed kitchen that opens to a warm and inviting den. A spacious living room extends into a light-filled sunroom, creating ideal spaces for both relaxing and entertaining. A striking two-sided fireplace elegantly connects the den and living area, enhancing the home’s cozy ambiance.

A sauna and dedicated exercise area further elevate the home’s lifestyle offerings. Abundant storage throughout ensures both convenience and functionality.
Modern efficiency meets comfort with a geothermal heating and cooling system, providing consistent climate control year-round, while an oversized generator adds an extra layer of peace of mind.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with expansive covered decks on both the main and lower levels—perfect for enjoying cool mountain breezes and breathtaking long-range views. The beautifully landscaped grounds showcase native plants and flowers, while a natural granite outcropping leads to a charming stone patio, creating a serene setting for outdoor gatherings.
Additional features include a two-car garage and furnishings included, making this a true turnkey opportunity.
Located within the gated King Mountain Club community, residents enjoy exceptional amenities including a clubhouse, large outdoor pool, tennis courts, stocked trout pond, and the convenience of a full-time onsite manager—offering the perfect blend of privacy, security, and mountain lifestyle.
