About this home

Perched in the sought-after High Vista community of Mills River, this exceptional mountain retreat captures the essence of refined living, where elevation meets breathtaking, long-range views. Designed across three levels plus a fully appointed basement, the home unfolds with graceful intention, each space opening to expansive porches on the top three floors, ideally framing the ever-changing landscape. Inside, exquisite woodworking and bespoke cabinetry create a warm yet sophisticated ambiance. The gourmet kitchen is a centerpiece, appointed with Sub-Zero appliances, a wine refrigerator, wet bar and generous breakfast bar, ideal for intimate mornings and elegant entertaining. The living room is bathed in natural light, its vaulted ceilings enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the surrounding beauty. The primary suite, thoughtfully positioned on the main level alongside the kitchen, dining, living and laundry, offers a private sanctuary with a spa-inspired bath and stunning panoramic views. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a lofted office provide flexibility, while the third level reveals inviting bonus spaces for recreation or retreat. The lower level presents a remarkable opportunity for guest living with private entrance and direct access to a serene patio. Outdoors, meticulously designed spaces invite relaxation and gathering, creating a seamless harmony between luxury and nature.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
