About this House
Sugar Pointe is quickly becoming the premier community on Sugar Mountain, N.C.- offering long-range views, cool temps, and a commitment to preserving nature.
Nestled among majestic boulders and thoughtfully landscaped terrain, this two-level log-sided cabin is a true mountain retreat blending rustic charm with refined luxury. From the moment you arrive, the natural stone retaining wall and lush surroundings set the tone for a property that’s as striking outside as it is inside.
Step onto the expansive covered decks—perfect for year-round enjoyment—and soak in the serenity from the private hot tub. Inside, warm wood tones and elegant finishes create a welcoming atmosphere, anchored by a cozy gas fireplace that invites relaxation. The heart of the home is the kitchen, where a rough-edge island crafted by the builder serves as a stunning centerpiece and conversation starter.
Every detail reflects quality and craftsmanship, from the custom woodwork to the thoughtful layout designed for comfort and style. The vaulted ceilings are present in the living area and primary bedroom. Bathrooms include vessel sinks and Smart vanity mirrors with Bluetooth and anti-fog systems. There are honestly too many amenities to list -- so you'll just need to make an appointment to see it yourself!
This custom cabin offers a luxurious escape in the heart of the NC mountains. We look forward to seeing you soon!
