Grandfather Views, Resort Access & Proven Rental Income Potential

Perched on a prime lot within the prestigious Sugar Mountain community, this four bedroom (plus bonus room), three full bath mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern luxury. Unrivaled Grandfather Mountain views and effortless resort access add to the appeal of this beautifully appointed mountain home. Step into a light-filled great room featuring vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace, many windows and sliding glass doors that frame the stunning, unobstructed long-range mountain views.

The open concept design flows seamlessly into a gourmet kitchen outfitted with granite countertops, premium stainless appliances, a central island and seamless flow into the dining room, ideal for entertaining. On the main level, two additional spacious guest bedrooms provide ample room for family and friends. The upper level is dedicated to a private primary suite oasis with a loft/office space and a spa-like ensuite with heated flooring, a soaking tub, and a custom tile shower.

The finished lower level functions as a complete entertaining area featuring a large family room, gaming area, a wood-burning stove, wet bar and a kitchenette. It could serve as a potential in-law suite or separate guest quarters with a bedroom, full bath, bonus room and it's own entrance, private deck and driveway. Outdoor living is redefined by the massive two-tier wrap-around decking, a sauna, and a firepit area with plenty of seating.

With a rare detached 2-car garage, two level driveways with ample parking and a location just minutes from skiing, golf, and tennis, this property is a premier choice for a lucrative short-term rental, second home or year round living. The free Sugar Mountain ski bus stops at your driveway—a massive draw for rental guests and owners alike. This property is a proven income generator, with ski season rentals alone historically covering all property expenses.

Welcome home to high-altitude serenity and four season adventure right here in Sugar Mountain! Furnishings negotiable.
