Tucked high above the Blue Ridge, where the mornings feel a little quieter and the views stretch on forever, this luxury log cabin in Sunalei Preserve offers a rare kind of mountain living. Set on over 3 private acres, the home is designed to take full advantage of its breathtaking 180-degree long-range layered views. From the moment you step into the vaulted great room with its floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, your eyes are drawn straight to the horizon. Just beyond, a covered porch with its own wood-burning fireplace becomes the perfect place to unwind—whether it’s coffee at sunrise or a glass of wine as the mountains fade into dusk. The main level offers effortless living with a spacious kitchen, primary suite with sweeping views, and a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub and walk-in tile shower. Upstairs, a loft and two guest bedrooms create a welcoming space for guests, while the lower level is built for gathering.. complete with a second stone fireplace, game room, additional bedroom and bath, and flexible spaces for fitness or hobbies. Follow the private path down the mountain to a tucked-away outbuilding, once used as an observatory, now ready to become your studio, retreat, or quiet escape under the stars. Life in Sunalei Preserve is about more than just a home... it’s about space, elevation, and connection to nature. With nearly 1,000 acres of protected land, elevations reaching over 5,500 feet, and direct access to Elk Knob State Park, this gated community offers unmatched privacy just 20 minutes from Boone. Residents gather at High Mountain Camp (one of the highest elevation clubhouses in the eastern US) to take in unforgettable sunsets, share time with friends, and enjoy the kind of mountain lifestyle that simply can’t be replicated. With no short-term rentals permitted, Sunalei remains a true retreat. Quiet, preserved, and intentionally different.
