This private sanctuary of comfort and charm has the perfect northwesterly aspect to enjoy the best of every season by taking advantage of the winter sun, while limiting exposure to the summer sun. Located in The Cotswolds Neighborhood in the Webbmont area, the home is positioned to capture the prevailing breezes while ensuring maximum light. Each room is positioned to take advantage of the view.
Sitting on 2.36 acres at an elevation of approximately 4200 feet, surrounded by the most enchanting scenery, and set way back from the private road only the sounds of nature pervade the silence and privacy. The home was built by Claire Knapp and will appeal to those who demand the best in quality design, materials and craftsmanship. The main room is built from 100+ year old hand hewn treated heart pine logs that were reclaimed from tobacco barns near Burlington North Carolina. The extra thick poplar bark siding was kiln dried to ensure no warping or shrinkage. The roof is DeVinci engineered slate with a 50 year warranty.
Beautiful landscaping and boulder steps lead to the wood and glass mahogany front door. Inside the foyer is constructed of cross sections of black locust timbers cut on the lot and set into concrete. The living room boasts a high, vaulted, wood ceiling which enhances its spacious look. The focal point is a massive floor to ceiling river rock fireplace with a hand cut wormy chestnut mantle and built-in cherry television and display shelves. Rich hickory flooring contributes to the character and charm of the home. Energy efficient Marvin windows on two sides of the living room ,8 foot mahogany french doors, and an antique leaded glass high window bring the outdoors in. The spacious wrap around deck affords a spectacular view of the surrounding mountains, a view that stretches 40 miles—all the way to Great Smoky Mtn Natl Park. Each side of the house presents a different scenic picture, of the mountains, the rock outcroppings or the gardens. The deck is also the ideal spot for casual alfresco dining or a cozy evening in front of the outdoor fireplace.
The kitchen is truly the heart of this home and flows seamlessly from the living room. The large kitchen island with a zinc top is a great place for family and friends to congregate or help with the food preparation and the combined kitchen/dining room is low maintenance and ideal for casual entertaining. The appliances are top of line from Wolf, Bosch and Dacor plus custom cherry cabinetry with open shelving, granite countertops and a copper farm style sink. The dining area has windows on three sides and a custom antique cabinet offers additional storage for your favorite table accessories and because the back is a picture window it allows in light and views of the beautiful grounds which were designed by Tate’s Landscaping.
Large windows in the master bedroom capture the mountain views, while a gas fireplace and a cozy seating area make the perfect spot for enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning. The master suite has his and her closets, a tiled spa shower, heated towel racks and dual vanities that were constructed from a dining table and feature Porcher bowls and custom bark medicine cabinets.
The upper level is accessed by hand made stair treads and black wrought iron is used to good effect on the stair rails. In addition to two spacious guest suites, there is a charming reading nook and an office with built in cabinetry.
There were no short cuts here. Every component of the home from the mahogany doors to the lighting fixtures were hand-picked by the owners. It took two and a half years to complete the home and the quality is evidenced at every turn.
