Description

Privately elevated 38 acres in Mars Hill, this architect-designed retreat offers commanding mountain sunset views and refined craftsmanship. Inspired by the family’s memories, the residence blends classic Adirondack architecture with the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge, adding natural rock elements, an outdoor fire pit, and a custom waterfall inviting you home. The main home features four bedrooms, a flexible bonus area, an open loft, and a retreat-style venue space, workshop, or office, all wrapped in expansive covered decking that frames the landscape. Enhanced with a private 720-sq.-ft. screened entertaining porch off the main home, the property then transitions through covered walkways and roofed outdoor corridors that create seamless connections to the matching 2nd building. Perfect for a venue, retreat, or pool house. This fully appointed 1,460-sq.-ft. Currently a recreation center—complete with pool, hot tub, sauna, billiards, bathrooms, and game areas—allowing for year-round indoor-outdoor living, including two additional screened porches for flow and relaxation, each @ 700 sq. ft. After acquiring this property and an additional parcel it was in 2016, the family thoughtfully enhanced the estate, creating a residence that stands as a refined architectural tribute to their heritage and memories. A true mountain compound with historical significance and exceptional design, this mountaintop estate—known as MOTH—presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of genuine Mountain Magic in Western North Carolina.
