Property details

About 3398 Cullowhee Forest Rd

Come home to the peaceful solitude of Cullowhee Forest, where the only sounds you’ll hear while relaxing on the spacious back deck are birdsongs and the breeze. Located just minutes from Lake Glenville—with its boat launch and sandy beach—and within a 30-minute drive to Cashiers, Sylva, and Franklin, this home offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience. The gated neighborhood features scenic walking trails and a private 75-foot waterfall, Hatcher Falls. High-speed fiber optic internet is also available for residents. This well-built mountain home features three bedrooms and an office on the main floor, all serviced by three full bathrooms. Since January 2024, bathrooms have had tasteful updates such as new quartz countertops, stone sinks, waterfall faucets, forest-motif decorative tile, and a luxurious walk-in, spa-like jetted tub. The open-concept living area offers both a wood-burning fireplace and a wood stove capable of heating the entire main floor—though no longer needed thanks to the newly installed whole-house Generac generator and on-demand gas water heater (2024). The kitchen was fully renovated in the past year and now boasts leathered granite countertops, a vertical subway tile backsplash, and brand-new stainless steel appliances. Solid wood closet doors throughout the home add a warm, upgraded touch. Downstairs, the full walkout basement features new LVL flooring, a dedicated laundry room, two bonus rooms, another full bath, a recreation area, and abundant closet storage. Additional home features include a whole-house dehumidifier and a radon mitigation system. Outside, you’ll find a detached two-car garage with updated walls, an insulated garden shed, and a beautifully terraced backyard garden with thoughtfully placed annual plantings. This home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded—ready for you to enjoy peaceful mountain living at its finest.
