About this home
Spectacular 40-acre equestrian estate nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, just minutes from the Tryon International Equestrian Center.
Privacy, craftsmanship, history, and location converge in this extraordinary Western North Carolina retreat. Completely hidden from the road and neighboring properties, the main residence rests atop the estate, offering a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility.
The upper level features two ensuite bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a spacious spa-inspired bath featuring a jetted soaking tub. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the main level offers multiple gathering spaces, including two sitting rooms, a fireplace, multiple dining areas, and two powder rooms. The updated kitchen features high-end appliances, abundant workspace, and a generous pantry. A large rear deck spans the width of the home, creating the perfect setting for outdoor dining and enjoying the surrounding landscape.
The walk-out lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a recreation room featuring a fireplace, exercise room, workshop, and additional finished spaces ideal for guests, hobbies, or extended entertaining.
A private drive leads to the separate one-bedroom guest/caretaker residence featuring a full kitchen, full bath, laundry facilities, and wrap-around deck. The lower level includes a three-car garage with individual bays, half bath, and a unique hobby distillery space. Fenced outdoor areas provide a welcoming environment for guests traveling with pets.
A fire pit gathering area connects the guest residence to the impressive 40’ x 50’ four-stall barn. Featuring large sliding doors, side garage-style doors, and direct access to one of four fenced pastures totaling approximately 10 acres. The large hayloft has been transformed into an exceptional entertaining space with a 24-foot table comfortably accommodating large gatherings. Additional amenities include dedicated RV and horse trailer parking with two 220-volt hookups and easy turnaround. The property reflects the rich heritage of Western North Carolina, a region known for its historic gold mining and mountain traditions. The creek bordering the southern boundary highlights the area’s prospecting history.
Beyond the estate, enjoy easy access to world-class equestrian events, championship golf, river recreation, wineries, fox hunting, Lake Lure, hiking trails, and numerous historic sites throughout the mountains.
Furniture, equipment, and additional furnishings are available separately, providing a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey mountain equestrian lifestyle property....
