122 Forestdale Drive

Beautifully secluded, this inviting home offers the freedom to create a true private retreat for family and friends, complete with year-round short-range mountain views. The 3.28-acre property within gated Laurel Falls combines a move-in-ready main residence, a separate guest cottage, and a full lower level ready to be finished around the next owner’s vision — whether that includes additional bedrooms, recreation space, a workshop, fitness area, home office, or a combination of uses. Custom-built as a personal home in 2022 by a reputable local contractor known for quality craftsmanship, the residence welcomes you with soaring ceilings, a dramatic wall of windows, warm wood floors, crisp white interiors, and natural wood accents. The open great room flows into a bright kitchen with abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, a gas range, a wine refrigerator, pantry storage, and an island for casual dining. Sliding glass doors open to an expansive deck for outdoor dining, morning coffee, and quiet evenings surrounded by nature. The main level features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including the primary suite. A spacious open loft overlooking the great room offers an additional bedroom with the option to create a full ensuite bedroom while retaining flexible living space. A four-bedroom septic system is on file. Interior and exterior entrances lead to the partially finished lower level, which includes a laundry room, extensive storage, a substantial workshop, two additional rooms, and plumbing for another bathroom. The unfinished areas allow the next owner to choose the layout and finishes best suited to their needs. The detached cottage includes a living area, kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping accommodations. A garden, firepit area, well house, covered open-air produce station, ATV paths, multi-purpose fenced enclosure with a covered roof, gravel driveway, native woodland, ample parking, and room for equipment and recreational gear complete the property. Laurel Falls offers community trails and trout fishing in Robinson Creek. The property is surrounded by Panthertown Valley and the vast Nantahala National Forest, with an adjoining conservation easement enhancing its privacy and protected natural setting. Waterfalls, hiking, biking, and horseback riding are all within easy reach. Vacation rentals are permitted. Offered unfurnished and ready to enjoy, this private retreat invites its next owners to make it entirely their own.
