Cullowhee, NC 28723

This luxurious modern farmhouse is perfectly situated above the tranquil Tuckasegee River, a fisherman’s dream stocked with trout and perfect for floating or kayaking directly from your backyard. The gently sloping, oversized lot offers one of the most desirable settings in the neighborhood, with a large grassy backyard, no flood damage during Hurricane Helene, and plenty of parking for family and guests. Inside, the home features a spacious open floor plan with beautiful river views from nearly every window. The main level includes a large living room that flows into an elegant kitchen and dining area with a half bath. From here, step onto one of two expansive Trex decks, ideal for lounging and entertaining while overlooking the river. The upper level serves as a true retreat, with a primary bedroom that opens into a spacious office with a sleek wet bar, a private Trex deck, and a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub and tiled shower. The third floor includes two generous guest bedrooms, each with its own private full bathroom. A Redwood Outdoors 6-person barrel sauna, featuring a powerful 8kW Harvia WiFi-controlled heater and a full glass wall that looks out over the water, creating a private wellness experience. The home also offers a large covered front porch, an oversized two-car garage with an unfinished upstairs, and tasteful stone landscaping that ties everything beautifully into the upscale neighborhood. Built with 2x6 construction, the home includes industrial-grade LVP flooring throughout, with durable carpet on the stairs. The design blends premium craftsman style with modern farmhouse touches. It comes fully furnished (excluding a few select pieces) and includes high-end appliances such as a washer, dryer, and refrigerator. The kitchen features premium Miele appliances, including the oven, microwave, and dishwasher. Enjoy the benefits of natural gas, including a gas stove and a grill hookup. The property is also connected to high-speed fiber internet, making it ideal for remote work or streaming. Located just seconds from the Western Carolina University campus, this home offers both convenience and privacy. The community allows select short-term rentals, and this property is one of the few that qualifies. Other similar rentals in the neighborhood have a proven track record of profitability, while the remaining homes are owner-occupied family residences. This is a rare opportunity to own a premium riverfront home with unmatched views, luxurious features, and income potential!
