The kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless sink and appliances, and a bar-height island that defines the workspace while keeping gatherings easy and conversational. In the living area, a gas-log fireplace anchors the open, airy feel. Natural light pours in from the privacy-fenced patio, accessed through a retractable screen door—an inviting setup for spring evenings. The large primary suite offers a tranquil ensuite with a garden tub, separate shower, and walk-in closet.

Set on four lots totaling over five acres, this rare Beech Mountain parcel is defined by the natural presence of beautiful Pond Creek and the Pond Creek Trail running directly through the property. The land offers multiple building sites, giving you flexibility in how you imagine a mountain retreat taking shape across the acreage. Access is available from both Pond Creek Lane and Indian Trail South, and a road has already been cut through the property—an early advantage for future plans. As one of the last large parcels within the Town of Beech Mountain, it offers a sense of breathing room that’s increasingly hard to find. Days here could begin with the sound of the creek and end with quiet walks along the trail, with space to shape something lasting.
