A Patriot’s Refuge Above the World: Longing for a place where time stands still, silence reigns, and the world feels far away? This is it. Perched on a windswept bald with commanding views of Mount Mitchell, the Smokies, and Pisgah National Forest, this handcrafted log home is more than a residence — it’s a retreat. Built in 2007 but styled to echo the 1700s, it features 8-inch oak logs, hand-hewn details, and a red cedar exterior that whispers of 1776. Inside, it’s all about strength, solitude, and simplicity — with hurricane-rated Anderson windows and a structure built to endure. Located in a 1,000-acre gated wilderness preserve, you'll wake to 360° mountain views and the rustle of trees, not traffic. This isn’t suburbia. It’s not sleek or modern. It’s for someone who values grit, honor, and nature — someone ready to trade screens and scrolls for freedom and sky. If you're ready to live above it all — this mountain stronghold is waiting.
