Perched atop over 12 secluded acres, this majestic log cabin estate is a rare and timeless offering — a legacy property where generations have gathered to celebrate life, love, and the breathtaking beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Lake Toxaway. Every room, beam, and view tells a story. Thoughtfully crafted with intention and care, the home features five spacious ensuite bedrooms, each oriented to capture stunning vistas. The main-level primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with an impressive stone fireplace and direct access to outdoor tranquility. The main and lower-level living areas feature impressive wood-burning stone fireplaces and are framed by walls of windows that flood the interior with natural light, showcasing the expansive views. A spacious upstairs loft offers a quiet sitting area, while the lower level includes a flex room and workshop for hobbies or additional living space. At the heart of the home is a chef’s dream kitchen featuring a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Viking gas range, a Bosch dishwasher, and a large prep island. The kitchen seamlessly connects to the adjacent dining area, powder room, and laundry room. Ideal for entertaining guests or hosting intimate family gatherings, this home was designed for making memories. Outside, a private driveway leads through a laurel gate and over a picturesque bridge to a cascading waterfall. Multiple oversized decks, a screened-in sunroom, and a generous carport leading to a covered front porch offer abundant outdoor living space to enjoy the crisp mountain air and gaze at the mountains and moonrises. This remarkable estate, now being offered for the first time, is impeccably maintained, partially furnished, and offers enduring hardwood and large stone flooring, oversized bathrooms, and quality craftsmanship throughout. Located within the sought-after Lake Toxaway Estates community and just under an hour from Asheville Regional Airport, this home is ideally situated to enjoy the nearby mountain communities of Brevard, Sapphire, Cashiers, and Highlands. More than a home, this is a rare opportunity to create a legacy in one of Western North Carolina’s most treasured settings.
