Fully Remodeled Turnkey Mountain Cottage in Beech Mountain, Eastern America's Highest Town. Quartz, Heated Tile Floors, Stone Fireplace, Long-Range Blue Ridge Views. Income-Producing. Welcome to your mile-high escape. Perched above 5,000 feet in Beech Mountain, the highest town east of the Rockies, this completely remodeled 1 bedroom, 1 bath condo is the rare vacation home that is finished and ready to enjoy the day you close. Summer temperatures here rarely top 75 degrees, roughly 15 degrees cooler than the Piedmont, so this is where Charlotte, Raleigh and Florida families come to breathe. Every surface has been thoughtfully updated. The open floorplan great room centers on a stone wood-burning fireplace with a chunky wood mantel, the kind of spot you picture on a snowy evening with a glass of wine. The fully renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, a center island with breakfast bar seating, stainless steel appliances, white subway tile backsplash, open shelving and statement pendant lighting. The primary bath has been fully renovated with a tiled shower, modern fixtures and heated tile floors, a true luxury at this elevation. Wood-look flooring, insulated windows and doors, a dedicated laundry room with a stackable washer and dryer, a 2022 metal roof and a 2022 water heater round out a home that simply does not need anything. Step out to the covered deck and take in layered long-range views across the Blue Ridge that shift with every season. Beech Mountain Resort is minutes from your door with skiing, snowboarding, tubing, lift-served downhill mountain biking in summer, the 5506' Skybar and Beech Mountain Brewing. The Emerald Outback trail system, Buckeye Recreation Center, Fred's General Mercantile, the Land of Oz and the town's summer concert series are all part of daily life here, with Sugar Mountain, Grandfather Mountain, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Banner Elk and Boone a short scenic drive down the mountain. Whether you are looking for a ski cottage, a summer retreat from the heat, a base camp for fall leaf season, or a turnkey short-term rental with established 2025 rental income and a proven year-round demand cycle, this condo delivers all four. Assigned parking in front of the unit, main-level entry with no stairs to climb, and an HOA that covers exterior maintenance mean you spend your time on the mountain, not on upkeep. Bring your skis and start making memories at 5,000 feet.

Some homesites require years of planning before construction can begin. This one gives you a remarkable head start. Set on 4.4 private acres within the gated community of The Lodges at Eagles Nest, extensive engineering, excavation, infrastructure improvements, and site preparation have already been completed, creating a rare opportunity to begin building your custom mountain estate far sooner than would otherwise be possible. Perched at approximately 4,500 feet in elevation, this exceptional estate homesite enjoys year-round long-range northern views overlooking Tennessee's Appalachian Mountains while offering an extraordinary level of privacy rarely found within one of the High Country's premier luxury communities. Surrounded by mature chestnut, red oak, and red maple trees, the property features two year-round mountain streams cascading into two natural waterfalls, and an incredible balance of wooded seclusion and mountain vistas. Unlike purchasing raw mountain land, much of the heavy lifting has already been completed. A professionally engineered private driveway extends approximately two-tenths of a mile into the property and features two DOT-grade bridges with wood plank decking, providing exceptional access to the future homesite. The primary building site has already been excavated, allowing the next owner the flexibility to design and construct a custom residence while benefiting from substantial infrastructure already in place. The property's layout also offers the potential for a private gated entrance, creating an even greater sense of arrival and privacy within the already gated community. An existing four-bedroom septic permit is in place, while the property's size and layout may offer the potential for a larger septic system, subject to county approval and permitting. Electrical service and fiber internet are readily accessible nearby. A private water well and septic system will be required. Residents of The Lodges at Eagles Nest enjoy access to an exceptional collection of private amenities, including the exclusive Epic Chophouse restaurant, Eagles Nest Winery, North Pavilion, Sportsman's Lodge, owners' fitness center, sports courts, and an extensive network of hiking, mountain biking, and ATV trails. The community's newly paved rear entrance also provides convenient access to Beech Mountain Resort, while downtown Banner Elk, Sugar Mountain Resort, boutique shopping, dining, wineries, and year-round recreation are just minutes away. Very few estate homesites within The Lodges at Eagles Nest offer this combination of privacy, completed infrastructure, year-round mountain views, natural water features, and immediate access to one of North Carolina's most sought-after luxury mountain communities. Whether your vision is a legacy family estate, luxury mountain retreat, or seasonal escape, this exceptional property offers an opportunity that simply cannot be recreated without years of additional time, planning, and investment.
