147 Dye Leaf Road

This is one of the most rare and unique offerings you will find in the heart of WNC's Blue Ridge mountains and only 20 minutes from Asheville! This 5,000+ square-foot estate spans 35 gorgeous wooded and grassy acres and masterfully unites the heritage of an original 2-story 1800s log cabin with the elegance of a custom timberframe post-and-beam home. Relocated and preserved in the 1950s, the updated two-story log cabin anchors today's residence with its hand-hewn authenticity, while the modern great room—modeled after a Hudson River Valley design—soars with oak beams, walls of glass, and exquisite attention to detail. At the heart of the home, a chef’s kitchen blends rustic warmth with culinary extravagance: a stylish and sophisticated Aga four-oven range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and custom heart-of-pine cabinetry. The adjoining dining and living spaces are framed in rich timber graced with a dramatic stacked stone wood-burning fireplace, creating an atmosphere equally suited to intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. The primary bedroom showcases wormy chestnut paneling along with a spa-like bathroom complete with maple finishes, a garden tub, stone, granite, and radiant floor heating. Upstairs, a striking and spacious family room with vaulted ceilings flows into a versatile and luxurious Sitka spruce loft, ideal for a home office. Throughout, bespoke details abound—a mahogany built-in desk, heart-of-pine flooring, and handcrafted storage closets that elevate function into art. A gorgeous and rustic 2-story barn w/ electricity features horse stalls, an elevated deck, and is surrounded by raised garden beds and a firepit. Even with all of the above, one of the most spectacular features of the property is the land itself. Your own private 35 acres of woods, open fields, and even hiking trails await your recreation and exploration. More than a residence, this is a legacy property—a home where 19th-century history and timeless modern luxury converge in perfect harmony.
