Welcome to Mountain Top: your elevated escape in the heart of Avery County. Tucked among the rolling hills just moments from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Linville Falls Winery, this custom-built retreat is designed for unforgettable High Country getaways.
The approach sets the tone. As you wind along a peaceful, tree-lined road, long-range mountain views unfold around you, creating an invitation to slow down and settle in. With just a few easy steps to the covered porch, you'll be greeted by a home that instantly feels warm, welcoming, and effortlessly relaxing.
Inside, the great room is the heart of the home, anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace with a mounted TV above. Comfortable seating invites you to gather, unwind, and reconnect, whether you're sharing stories or enjoying a quiet evening by the fire.
The kitchen is equally inviting, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range perfect for preparing everything from casual breakfasts to memorable group dinners. There's room for everyone at the bar seating for four or the spacious dining table for ten.
Just beyond, the three-season room brings the fun. With its own fireplace and pool table, it's a space made for laughter and friendly competition. Open the double doors to seamlessly connect it with the main living area and keep the energy flowing.
Time for bed? Mountain Top offers ample sleeping options for everyone in the group to get a great night's rest.
