Property Description

Perched at approximately 4,500 feet on an expansive double lot, 640 Overlook Drive is one of Wolf Laurel’s most exceptional luxury mountain homes. Constructed by Wallin Builders, this fully furnished residence offers more than 5,145 square feet across two levels, breathtaking year round, long range mountain views and an extraordinary setting within one of Western North Carolina’s premier gated communities. Eastern-facing views extend across layered Blue Ridge Mountain ridgelines toward Unaka Mountain, Bald Mountain and the Toe River Valley. Professional landscaping surrounds the home with stone pathways, established gardens and tiered waterfalls at the front and rear, creating the atmosphere of a private mountain resort. The sound of flowing water can be heard throughout the outdoor living areas, adding to the property’s sense of peace and seclusion. The open concept main level was designed to embrace the views. Soaring wood ceilings, refinished hardwood floors, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and expansive windows fill the great room with natural light. The gourmet kitchen, dining area and living room flow together, with multiple doors opening onto extensive covered and open-air decking. Two generously sized primary suites occupy opposite wings of the main level, providing privacy for owners and guests. Both feature spacious bathrooms and walk-in closets, while the owners wing opens onto a private mountain view balcony a peaceful place for morning coffee or quiet reflection. A stunning mountain view study provides an inspiring setting for work or reading. The lower level functions as a separate living and entertainment space with a spacious family room, fireplace, full bar and kitchen area. Two additional bedrooms include ensuite bathrooms, while a bonus room has access to a separate full bath. The lower-level primary suite also enjoys a private balcony overlooking the mountains. This flexible floor plan is ideal for extended family, guests or multigenerational living, with room for media, recreation, fitness or hobbies. The outdoor spaces are every bit as impressive as the interior. Multiple decks overlook the mountains, while a separate timber-frame entertainment pavilion provides an unforgettable place to gather. Complete with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and massive wood burning stone fireplace, it is designed for quiet evenings by the fire or large celebrations against a backdrop of million-dollar views. Additional features include multiple fireplaces, heated tile floors, zoned heating & cooling, multiple water heaters, a central sound system, abundant storage, an attached garage and dedicated workshop. Paved access and underground utilities provide added convenience, while custom crafted furnishings designed for the home make it truly move in ready. Wolf Laurel offers a staffed 24-hour gate, privately maintained paved roads & access to hiking near Big Bald & the Appalachian Trail. Optional memberships are available at Wolf Laurel Country Club, offering a five-star mountain golf experience on its 18-hole championship course, along with dining and fitness facilities. The optional Village Club provides swimming, tennis, pickleball and recreational amenities. Hatley Pointe’s skiing, mountain biking and dining further enhance the year-round lifestyle. At this elevation, summer offers a welcome escape from the heat, with average midsummer temperatures in the mid-70s. Cool mountain mornings, comfortable afternoons and evenings around the outdoor fireplace make this an exceptional four-season retreat. Located minutes from Mars Hill and within driving distance of Asheville, Burnsville & Johnson City, the property combines the privacy of a high elevation mountain estate with access to shopping, dining, healthcare, entertainment and regional airports. With exceptional craftsmanship, resort quality outdoor living and extraordinary views, 640 Overlook Drive is a legacy mountain property created for every season.
