Make the most of your time in the mountains at the modern & stylish Stone's Throw Retreat. As the name suggests, this home is just a "stone's throw" from everything the idyllic Town of Black Mountain has to offer! This home also boasts impeccable design and decor, from the craftsman hardwood flooring to the stylish sliding barn doors to the sleek marble countertops, the posh features in this home ensure luxury & functionality riddled with mountain charm.
Upon entering the home, you'll find an open floor plan that includes a living, dining, and kitchen area, making it easy for groups of friends or family to hold a great conversation while some are relaxing on the couch or playing one of the many games and puzzles stocked in the living room (complete with luxe furnishings and a gas fireplace) and others are cooking in the gourmet kitchen (complete with stainless appliances, marble countertops, and gas range stove). In the evening, use the Sonos Sound System to stream your favorite songs while sipping wine & creating a delicious meal using the gas grill.
After dinner, wander out onto the covered back deck to stargaze while cuddled up on the couch by the fire table before heading back inside to the cozy living room to stream a new movie using the smart TV. When it's time for bed, take advantage of the sound machine that can be found in each room to aid you in having the most soothing sleep possible. In the morning, step outside onto the deck to enjoy the crisp mountain air on your face as you sip your morning coffee in the rocking chairs overlooking the fenced-in backyard, or settle onto the bench in front of the house to people-watch & listen to the hum of downtown. Every Saturday (May-November), you'll have the chance to walk down the street to the local farmer's market minutes away to pick up artisan goods, fresh flowers, sustainably-grown produce, and homemade assortments of honey and jam. Just under 2 miles away, you could also spend your morning putting on the green in the sunshine at the Black Mountain Golf Course or walking along the scenic greenway in Montreat.
After returning home from whichever adventure you choose, carve out some time to work remotely using the high-speed internet & compact desk areas in one of the upstairs bedrooms. Ride your bike or take a stroll into "The Little Town that Rocks," Black Mountain, just minutes away. Known as the "Front Porch of Western North Carolina," you'll spot the iconic red rocking chairs throughout town that stand as your reminder to slow down, pull up a chair, and relax. Enjoy a rotating "mega-mosa," served in a mason jar, on the wraparound porch of local favorite, Louise's Kitchen. On the days you're seeking a bustling & high-energy experience, travel to the eccentric city of Asheville just 15 min. away. Both Black Mountain and AVL offer several art galleries, upscale boutiques, novelty shops, and award-winning breweries guaranteed to keep you entertained for hours on end.
On your way back into town, stop by Lake Tomahawk just across the way to catch an epic sunset over the Seven Sisters Mountain Range and glistening lake. If you visit during the day, be sure to pack a picnic to enjoy alongside the water while you watch the ducks bathing, play a round of tennis, or run the path that surrounds the lake. Ideal for a getaway with your family or closest friends, Stone's Throw Retreat offers unparalleled convenience and allows you to explore every corner of quaint small-town life while providing a home base that embodies contemporary luxury!
Please Note: Stone's Throw Retreat is NON-smoking & is NOT pet friendly. New home construction next door is ongoing, but there is little to no construction activity after 5 or 6 PM.
