About this home

Reflecting the rarity and immediate lifestyle appeal of this fully furnished mountain offering, 256 Haulback Way presents an exceptional opportunity within the gates of Balsam Mountain Preserve. Perched at approximately 4,000 feet in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this remarkable property pairs a Morgan-Keefe custom-built guest residence with a premier future estate homesite, allowing buyers to immediately embrace elevated mountain living while envisioning a legacy retreat surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty.

Designed with a sophisticated balance of luxury and warmth, the residence is a refined sanctuary where architecture and nature exist in harmony. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass captures sweeping mountain vistas and abundant natural light, while vaulted interiors, a striking stone fireplace, curated designer furnishings, and a gourmet kitchen create an effortless environment for both entertaining and everyday living. Modern conveniences including EV charging, fiber internet, generator, integrated Cat6 wiring, and smart-home capabilities further enhance the seamless ownership experience.

Across a gently flowing mountain stream, the future homesite offers exceptional privacy and the opportunity to create a custom mountain estate within one of Western North Carolina’s most coveted private communities. Encompassing approximately 4,400 acres with nearly 75% protected conservation land, Balsam Mountain Preserve offers an unparalleled lifestyle centered around nature, wellness, and recreation.

Community amenities include an Arnold Palmer Signature golf course, equestrian center, wellness and fitness facilities, hiking and biking trails, fly fishing along a Class A trout stream, luxury dining and social experiences, and a prestigious 24-hour staffed guard gate—all ideally positioned within the Great Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina.

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.
