Property Description

Truly one-of-a-kind in scale and craftsmanship, featuring massive handcrafted logs measuring 2+ feet in diameter—a rare and commanding presence that immediately gets your attention, draws you to the logs to reach out & touch them, are they real? They are and they make this a truly unique find! Built as a Highlands Hand Crafted Log Home, situated on the banks of the scenic New River where it's broad with deep pockets in beautiful Northwest North Carolina. Luxury craftsmanship is surrounded by natural beauty. Accented with striking poplar bark details inside and out, the contrasting texture beautifully emphasizes the massive scale and character of the logs, creating a true mountain masterpiece. A solid mahogany entry door reinforces the scale by the weight, a tactile experience in itself usually followed by touching the logs right inside the door, setting the tone for the exceptional quality experience found throughout the home. Each log is individually hand-carved and precision-fitted, with carefully crafted channels designed to allow insulation to be packed between the logs—delivering superior energy efficiency while preserving the authentic aesthetic of traditional log construction. This home was originally assembled at the Highlands Log Structures facility, then meticulously dismantled, transported to the homesite, and expertly reconstructed with the help of a heavy duty crane to move the logs up & to the back of the structure for perfect alignment and long-term structural integrity on a foundation engineered to match the scale of the logs. Supporting this impressive structure is a reinforced foundation of 12-inch block filled with concrete, engineered specifically to handle the extraordinary weight of these massive logs. The exterior is further protected from water intrusion with attractive and highly functional round guttering system, thoughtfully designed to efficiently direct runoff away from the home. Inside, thoughtful product choices include Pella windows, striking granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, well placed lighting and custom cabinetry with pull-out drawers, fold out doors, built-in key & document storage, combine beauty with functionality, keeping your living spaces organized & uncluttered. Modern comfort is further ensured with fiber optic internet for high-speed connectivity, so you can #WFH work from home listening to the river roll over the rocks, in front of the cozy gas logs or up on the 2nd floor balcony surrounded by rhododendron branches harvested from the property as the railing. The thoughtfully designed layout offers 2 bedrooms and 3 full baths, including first & second-floor primary suites with their own private bath. The basement level provides laundry hookups, a full bath, and French doors opening to the outdoors, along with a flexible space for guests, recreation, or expansion. Location, Location, Location, this extraordinary riverfront property is located just 10 minutes to Sparta or Independence with plentiful dining & shopping options. If you’re looking for that exceptional mountain home, with outstanding craftsmanship, on the water, make an appointment today & start living your best life. You’ve found it!
