Eagles Nest is perched 3600 ft high with amazing views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and clouds dancing between the peaks. The setting is a perfect venue to go for walks, fishing, take in mother nature, or simply decompress. Cathedral ceilings, gas brick fireplace and details like log pillars in the loft add to the charm without sacrificing the everyday modern conveniences of a newer home. Close to Bakersville, Spruce Pine, Burnsville, Blue Ridge Pkwy and just over an hour from Asheville. There is a flat screen HD TV, desk, lazy boy and rocking chair flanking the fireplace along with a futon/couch. Enjoy the gourmet kitchen with a coffee bar, five burner gas stove, dishwasher and refrigerator/freezer with an ice maker, granite countertops and custom cabinetry. The large covered porch spans the back of the house, offering front row seats to the mountain ranges and in the morning, the smoking cloud formations between the peaks. There are Adirondack chairs, and a gas grill for cooking and table and chairs for dining al fresco. The Primary bedroom is off the great room and features a white cedar king size bed, flat screen tv and an en suite bath with two pedestal sinks. Upstairs, you will find a loft bedroom with two twin beds, a full bath, and a high top table with chairs in front of a window featuring panoramic views of the mountains. There's also a cozy built in cushioned bench overlooking the hot tub and woods. The lower level has a king size bed, full bath and a table for card playing, games or anything else. The front porch is a great place to take in some of the wooded grounds, or head directly to the 5 person hot tub cantilevered to soak in the views or a bit further down the slope you will find our custom built fire pit. The serene and private community has lots of meandering roads and trails to take in the beauty of the mountains, walk the dogs, or simply hike in solitude and likely not see another person.
The entire home and grounds are there for your enjoyment. Other things to note, although it's fairly easy to reach Eagles Nest, please keep in mind the roads are gravel for most of the way up the mountain. In icy or snowy conditions, we would suggest all wheel drive or four wheel vehicles only. Otherwise, it's a lot of hairpin turns but navigable.
