Property Description
Rare opportunity to own a custom mountain retreat in the sought-after Gingercake Acres community with direct access to the Linville Gorge Wilderness, often called the Grand Canyon of the East. Situated on a beautifully landscaped .91-acre double lot with long-range views toward Brown Mountain Overlook, this meticulously maintained one-owner home offers the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and community. Built in 2015 as a full-time residence, the home showcases quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design throughout. The main level features a spacious kitchen with custom cabinetry and island seating that opens to the vaulted living and dining area, where large windows frame the mountain views. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and includes a large walk-in closet and beautifully appointed bath. Upstairs offers two generously sized guest bedrooms, a full bath, and a loft currently used as an office. The finished lower level provides additional living space with a second family room and a flexible bonus room well suited for a home office, exercise room, craft room, or hobby space. Designed for comfort and convenience, the home features an elevator serving all three levels, a whole-house generator, Superior Walls precast concrete foundation, attached two-car garage, and a large detached wired workshop. Outside, extensive stone masonry, natural boulders, and mature landscaping create a setting that blends seamlessly with the surrounding mountains. Gingercake Acres is known for its welcoming atmosphere and outstanding amenities, including a clubhouse, pool, tennis and pickleball courts, playground, and regular community gatherings. Just a short walk or drive away, the Jonas Ridge Trail leads to Gingercake Mountain and connects to miles of scenic hiking with breathtaking views. Whether you are searching for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or place to gather with family and friends, this exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of High Country living in one of the region's most unique communities.
