‘Mountain escape’ sets sales record in NC tourist spot. See photos of the stunning home
A real estate record in the tourist town of Asheville, North Carolina, has been broken after a light and breezy estate tucked away in the Wildcat Cliffs neighborhood sold for $6.8 million, according to a news release.
And boy, is it a beauty.
Sitting on a private 4.5 acres, the four-bedroom, five-bath home has a spacious floor plan that has an indoor/outdoor feel in certain parts of the house spanning over 7,400 square feet.
According to the listing, other features include:
“Geothermal heated Italian wood-look tile”
Bar
Grand salon
Movie theater
Study
“Outdoor entertainment terrace”
And so much more.
“These clients were very nice to work with,” Renee Miller, the broker who handled the sale, said in the release. “They originally wanted to buy 50+ acres of land to build a private estate with 3–4 homes on it for their family, so we were looking at large tracts of land and large homes on land.”
Miller said the new owners purchased the home for the views and the privacy the estate brings.
“They currently live in Charlotte and want a vacation home in the mountains of Western North Carolina to escape to. This house is perfect for that and for entertaining.”
After the sale was finalized earlier this month, it became “the highest ever residential sale in Asheville’s 28804 zip code,” the release said. The estate is located just miles from the popular Blue Ridge Parkway.
While the luxury market appears to be sizzling, other more “average” homes in North Carolina have also been getting their fair share of peering eyes. Recently, a house listed in the Outer Banks gained national attention after its listing agent called it “uglier than your 3rd divorce,” McClatchy News reported. Another one for sale in the Charlotte area caught the eye of the popular social media page Zillow Gone Wild thanks to its “Blue’s Clues”-like interior.
