760 Woody Lane crowns the ridge inside Laurel Ridge Country Club, and the view
is the reason. From the top of the mountain the land falls away across all of
Laurel Ridge and keeps going: layered blue ridgelines, the Great Smoky
Mountains and Mt. Pisgah standing off in the distance, and the lights of
Waynesville in the valley below. Long range, mountain, year round. This is the
view buyers climb the ridge hoping to find, and here it follows you from room
to room.

The log home lives easy on one level. Two bedrooms and two baths in 1,816
square feet, with an open layout that keeps the ridgeline in front of you from
the moment you walk in. A stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the great room
and earns its keep on a cool mountain evening. Wood, tile and carpet floors,
insulated windows and doors, central air and a heat pump, city water, and a
full appliance package that stays. There is a one-car garage, so the everyday
things have somewhere to go. Step out to the deck and you are in the room you
will actually use, from cool-air mornings through the long golden hour when
the ridgelines light up. A gazebo sits in the yard, and a fenced area gives
dogs and grandchildren somewhere to be. A trail follows the ridgeline right
out the back door, a walk along the crest of the mountain without leaving
home.

The second living quarters is what sets this property apart. A separate guest
house of 968 square feet, with two bedrooms, two baths, a private entrance and
the same long-range views as the main home, laid out as two distinct living
spaces, each with its own kitchen. That is two kitchens in the guest house,
and three across the property in all. Family who visit get their own front
door, a studio or workshop or home office gets its own building, and with two
full kitchens and separate entries the guest house reads as a ready income
opportunity, whether you rent it or let it help carry the property. Together
the two structures total 2,784 square feet, four bedrooms and four baths.

All of it sits on 2.07 acres, two building lots combined into a single parcel.
The lot next door is not a neighbor waiting to happen, it is already yours,
and so is the privacy and the sightline that comes with it. Native
rhododendron, mountain laurel and hardwoods screen the house without crowding
the view. Both dwellings have propane power back-up generators.

Laurel Ridge Country Club surrounds you: an 18-hole Bob Cupp designed golf
course, clubhouse, fitness center, putting green, tennis and game courts,
behind a gate, on a paved road, with dues of only $50. The course and downtown
Waynesville shops and dining are about five minutes down the mountain. The
Blue Ridge Parkway is under ten. Asheville is thirty-five. High elevation
mountain living, a stone hearth to come home to, a second home for guests
already built, and a view that does not end.
