Description:
The High Life!
Welcome to the peace & tranquility that comes from "elevation", calming and upscale surroundings, and the breathtaking awe of a true luxury vacation home; AND just 5 minutes from downtown Black Mountain, and and close to everything else in WNC, including all the action in downtown Asheville.
Does this sound like the luxury mountain destination experience for you?

Come soak in all The High Life has to offer its guests, including a high-end "arts & crafts" home, modern amenities, close proximity to literally everything, and more. Sit on your amazingly expansive back deck, relax and sip coffee as you take in the calming atmosphere of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Come create your own memorable Asheville mountain experience!

The home affords year round access, and is great for groups of any and all ages. The home is situated just outside of downtown Black Mountain, NC, affording the privacy of a custom-built mountain home, and space for everyone to relax & enjoy the feel of the WNC mountains.

Get ready to be “wowed” by this specialty built mountain style retreat. With soaring vistas, high ceilings, vaulted rooms, and cozy spaces, you will immediately feel at home at The High Life. (That is of course if you can tear yourself away from the wrap-a-round decks & soaking in the spectacle of the of relaxing amidst the splendor of the Blue Ridge Mountains, & actually venture inside!) The relatively newly constructed Arts & Crafts home affords a stunning great room, Chef's grade kitchen, a lower level Family Rm, and MORE; with plenty of space to unwind and gather with your group. But, if you need some “alone time”, there is plenty of space inside and out to find your own serenity. There are 4 outside porches, decks, and patios, including the rocking chair porch for ultimate outdoor relaxation.

While at The High Life, everyone enjoys all that the home has to offer; from the multiple gathering spaces, the garage Game Room, and of course the spectacular decks, where you can pull up a chair and take in the "sound of silence", observe the night as it fills with stars, and watch the fire flies come out to play in your backyard.
Take a seat and enjoy the sound of nature and the serenity in your own private paradise in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Black Mountain is app. less than 5 minutes away with its shops, fine dining, antiques, live entertainment and much more. You are also just a short drive from America's favorite scenic byway, The Blue Ridge Parkway, motorcycle touring, biking, hiking, white water rafting, rock climbing, kayaking, canoeing, zip lining, Segway tour…just about any outdoor activity! Or, take a ride to downtown Asheville to enjoy the first-rate restaurants, shopping, galleries, spas, and entertainment.
