Tucked into 3.5 lush acres near downtown Cedar Mountain and DuPont State Recreational Forest, Katsura is far more than a two-bedroom, one-bath home-it is a truly one-of-a-kind mountain living property where art, hand-crafted architecture, gardens and water come together. The heart of the home is its extraordinary artist-crafted stonework. Intricate, hand-painted rock walls transform the interior into works of art, with flowing patterns, organic forms and incredible detail that make the home unlike anything else in the area. The home offers two bedrooms and one bath, a kitchen with a beautiful, vintage Crescent wood stove in great condition adding a tad of history to its modern appliance counterparts. Step outside on the wrap-around deck and Katsura becomes its own private retreat. At the center of the landscape is a peaceful pond with 20-year-old koi, surrounded by mature trees, artisan-built cascading swimming pools, flowers and established areas for gardens. A charming covered dock with a living earth roof creates a magical spot for morning coffee, reading, yoga, music and entertaining or simply watching the koi move through the water. The pond and surrounding landscape offer a constantly changing view throughout the year, allowing you to experience the charm of every season from the comfort of home. For gardeners, the property offers exceptionally rich soil, established outdoor growing areas and a greenhouse ready for extending the growing season. A separate work shed provides space for tools, gardening equipment, hobbies or creative projects. Another dedicated outbuilding serves as a private sauna and exercise area, creating a wellness space just steps from your back door. Despite its wonderfully secluded feeling, Katsura is conveniently located near the small-business heart of Cedar Mountain and minutes from the waterfalls, hiking and world-class mountain biking of DuPont State Recreational Forest. Truly one of a kind!!

A private retreat at the headwaters. Built in 2020 by a meticulous local builder, 158 Bucks Crossing sits on a large lot beside community green space and the headwaters of the East Fork of the French Broad, creating a sense of total privacy and close enough to hear the river from the house. Wood, stone and glass give the home a natural warmth and presence. The soaring great room gathers around a massive wood-burning fireplace, while walls of windows bring the forest into nearly every room. Generous common spaces make it easy to share with family and friends, and the 3-bedroom, 4-bath layout includes a bonus room for additional guests, giving everyone privacy when they want it. An expansive deck spans the back of the home, featuring a large hot tub for evenings under the trees and a large fire pit area close to the river provides the perfect place for evening stories and s'mores. Direct access to the East Fork is a sought-after amenity, with wild brook trout in the stream right behind the house and some of the region's best fly fishing close by. Beyond it, the 6,730-acre Headwaters State Forest puts one of North Carolina's great outdoor playgrounds right in your backyard. Big Hill is a quiet, conservation-minded community where larger homesites, abundant green space, maintained roads and underground utilities leave the forest largely undisturbed.
