Tucked into 1.43 wooded acres in the gated mountaintop community of Grand Highlands at Bearwallow Mountain, this Energy Star Certified, 3 bedroom + Den with 2.5 bath home offers something special: peaceful tranquility, the beauty of nature, and a floor plan thoughtfully designed for the way people actually live. Large windows across the width of the main level living area draw the forest in through every season. The cathedral ceiling in the great room amplifies this sense of openness, rising above a stone gas fireplace that anchors the space with warmth. The floor plan flows naturally from great room to dining area to kitchen: connected, spacious, and perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is well appointed with KitchenAid appliances including a gas countertop range, oven, and warming drawer; a granite island with seating for two, custom maple cabinetry, and a pantry that keeps everything organized. Off the dining area, a screened deck extends the home into the tree canopy with its own stone gas fireplace - a peaceful outdoor space. The spacious main-level primary bedroom features an ensuite bathroom with heated floors, a spa soaking tub, and zero-clearance shower. A sun-filled den on the main level provides a versatile bonus room, ideal as a home office, creative studio, or reading retreat. The laundry room and mudroom connect via breezeway to the two-car garage with a 221 sq ft workshop. Downstairs, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a generous family room with exterior access and covered patio offer flexibility for guests or family. You will also find a cedar closet, second walk-in closet, and 516 sq ft of unfinished basement space that offers the possibility of a finished fourth bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Grand Highlands amenities include a lodge-style clubhouse with fitness center, event spaces, library, and community garden, plus a dog park, tennis and pickleball courts, and hiking trails with direct trailhead access near the property. Just 25-30 minutes to both Asheville and Hendersonville.
