Property Description

Escape to Elegance in the Mountains of Big Canoe Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted Wildcat neighborhood, this mountain retreat feels like it was made for your next chapter. Whether you're retiring into peace and privacy or seeking a weekend haven to recharge, this 4+ bedroom, 6-bath estate welcomes you with warmth, craftsmanship, and comfort in every detail. From the moment you enter, the home tells its story through rich hardwood floors, hand-detailed beams, and sunlit rooms framed by plantation shutters and coffered ceilings. It’s easy to imagine quiet mornings on the porch, coffee in hand, as deer graze in the woods beyond your 1.35-acre sanctuary. The main floor is designed for ease and elegance—with a spa-like primary suite and a guest bedroom that’s ideal for visitors or a quiet study. Downstairs, fun takes center stage: a second primary suite, an entertainer’s bar with hammered copper sink and leathered counters, and a game room built for memories. Step outside to three distinct porches—including a covered one with a fireplace and a brand-new deck perfect for sunset dinners or stargazing in solitude. This is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle: Oversized 3-car garage for cars, toys, or hobbies Whole-house generator for peace of mind Three fireplaces for cozy mountain evenings Top-tier appliances, smart features, and security throughout **A mandatory $5,000.00 capital contribution fee paid by the purchaser to the Big Canoe Property Owners’ Association will be due at closing. **Pursuant to Article II, Section 1, Paragraph bb of the Class “A” Covenants for the Big Canoe community, all property transfers are subject to the Big Canoe developer’s right of first refusal.
