Inspired by the Blue Ridge Mountains, this stunning architect-designed, award-winning, magazine-featured, green-built, massive mountain-view home and separate studio settle comfortably and serenely into 18 acres of lush gardens and trees offering relaxation, recreation, and inspiration. Luxury abounds on this private property--from the walls of windows framing views at every turn, to curated finishes, to beautifully appointed built-ins--each room of the home offers its own experience and "wow" moments! The thoughtful and efficient design allows large gatherings in the great room to spill out to the deck and gardens under the stars while still preserving privacy for the inhabitants in the tucked-away bedrooms, office nooks, and bathrooms. Clever touches such as the main bathroom that converts to a half bath with the slide of a glass pocket door, invisible solar panels and whole house air filtration system (ERV) offer so much versatility and attention to detail. The lower level presents yet another private living space with a separate exterior entrance (and interior entrance) and has its own efficiency kitchen, bedroom/living space, full bath, and a large, lovely patio with mountain views. From the main home, it's a short stroll past the rose bushes and across the drive to the art and music studio. This bright and calm space is so versatile! Currently used as a drum studio on one side and an art studio on the other with a loft in-between, this building could easily be converted to another full living space. It even has its own patio and giant sliding glass doors! If music and art are your thing, you will be delighted with the soundproofing in the drum room and Northlux full-color spectrum lighting in the art studio. So much to inspire here! The land offers privacy among the professionally-tended wildflower gardens that surround multiple grand-view building sites! The location is so convenient, too. Feel worlds away from it all while only being five minutes to Main Street Marshall and its festivities, cafes, restaurants, and art studios and only 22 minutes to downtown Asheville!
