Straddling Knob Creek and a natural swimming hole in Cullowhee, North Carolina, this one-of-a-kind home looks into a series of waterfalls. The creek flows gently through the property with plenty of acreage on both sides for complete privacy. The long gated driveway is flat and meanders through sunny meadows and a lush forest. The property is over 73 acres where deer and turkey frequent the fields and sometimes even elk pass through. With walking and four-wheeling trails, two ponds with a fishing dock, and an abundance of native flora and fauna to appreciate, there is always something fun to do.
The home itself is designed to offer relaxing views and sounds of the waterfalls and stream below from almost every room. A covered deck and huge central porch with fireplace and grill offer wonderful spots for listening to the water cascading over the rocks and taking in the incredibly beautiful surroundings.
Reclaimed wood, vaulted beamed and trussed ceilings and fine stonework highlight the superior architecture and construction.
With premium appliances, generous cabinetry, and a large island with seating, the gourmet kitchen is a popular gathering place. The master suite is a retreat all its own, with a sitting area, custom walk-in closet and spacious bath. Several guest rooms, a bunk room for the kids, fitness room, and TV/game room with mini kitchen round out the floor plan.
This private estate is listed for $6.995 million with Silver Creek Real Estate Group and is showcased by Luxury Portfolio.
