A rare expression of mountain craftsmanship, timeless character, and enduring quality. Perched upon beautiful White Oak Mountain, this extraordinary timber home offers nearly 4,900 square feet of fully furnished, turn-key living, framed by sweeping long-range mountain views. Built with substantial 12-inch solid timber beams, 200-year-old heart pine floors, and three impressive stone fireplaces, this is a home where exceptional materials and thoughtful design create an inviting mountain retreat. A welcoming rocking-chair front porch opens to an expansive foyer, setting the tone for interiors rich in warmth and character. The magnificent great room features soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, a stone gas fireplace, and walls of glass capturing the surrounding mountain vistas. The spacious dining area flows into an inviting eat-in kitchen with a large center island, a second stone fireplace, and distinctive hand-crafted Italian brick flooring. The main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with its own stone fireplace, iron clawfoot soaking tub overlooking the views, beautifully renovated shower and granite vanities. A powder room and walk-in laundry/pantry complete the main level. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a full-length rear deck ideal for entertaining and stargazing, a lower-level patio, charming gazebo, and generous green space surrounded by natural beauty. Upstairs, a charming loft provides a quiet retreat, while two private guest suites each offer an ensuite bath. Designed for entertaining, the walk-out lower level features a pub-style recreation room with bar and billiards area, a study or art studio, an additional bedroom, and full bath. Ample unfinished space provides exceptional utility, including a second laundry area, freezer, refrigerator, well-equipped tool room, and abundant storage. Exceptional construction and thoughtful improvements provide lasting peace of mind, including a commercial grade generator for primary levels, metal roof, Andersen aluminum-clad hurricane-rated windows, updated rear doors, and water filtration system. Offered truly turn-key, the sale includes nearly all furnishings, antiques, fine art, collectibles, cookware, dishes, and linens. White Oak Mountain residents enjoy beautiful walking trails, three stocked lakes for fishing, a private neighborhood park, community pavilion, and frequent neighborhood socials. An adjacent 1.56-acre parcel is also available for purchase (Parcel #P58 85, Lot #45, Blk A), offering a rare opportunity to expand your mountain retreat. Just a scenic 10-minute drive down the mountain brings you to the charming town of Columbus, with grocery, medical, banking, and county services conveniently accessible. A distinctive mountain property offering exceptional craftsmanship, remarkable space, and a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.
