Description
From the moment you turn onto the paved drive, flanked by hand-laid stone walls and a canopy of mature hardwoods, you know this place is something special. Tucked away on 1.71 private acres in the coveted Glen Cannon community, this Post and Beam style home delivers the authentic Brevard experience: the gentle sound of one of the community's waterfalls drifting up from the trees, rhododendron-lined grounds bursting with color, and a home designed to bring the outside in at every turn.
The main level sets the tone immediately. Soaring ceilings with dark, exposed beams anchor a generous living room, centered around a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace and a loft overlook. Wide-plank pine floors flow throughout, and sliding glass doors open directly to the deck, ideal for entertaining or simply taking in the wooded surroundings. The kitchen features warm custom wood cabinetry, a live-edge peninsula, stainless steel appliances, including a wall oven with a warming drawer and a microwave, and artisan tile work that speaks to the craftsmanship carried throughout the home. The grand primary suite occupies its own private wing on the main level, complete with a spacious en-suite bath featuring a soaking tub, dual vanities, a separate shower, and a wall of windows framing the lush forest. A powder room, dining area, and a charming covered front porch with a porch swing and skylights, connecting seamlessly to the carport and workshop, complete the main floor.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms with beautiful exposed beam ceilings and pine floors are joined by a full bath, a private office or flex room, and a loft that overlooks the living room below, perfect for a reading nook, studio, or simply soaking in the architecture.
The lower level is a true bonus, offering a spacious den with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and built-in shelving, a separate hobby or office room with abundant built-in workspace, a half bath, laundry, and access to what may be the home's most beloved feature: a screened porch that stretches across the back of the house. Furnished with a porch swing, rocking chairs, and a twig-work railing, this is where mornings begin and evenings end, listening to the waterfall, watching the fireflies, and remembering why you chose Brevard.
Outside, the property offers two additional outbuildings, a two-car carport with attached workshop, multiple deck levels, and mature landscaping including azaleas, Japanese maples, and native plantings that make every season a show.
Glen Cannon is one of Transylvania County's most established communities, just minutes from downtown Brevard, the Pisgah National Forest, and the trails, music, and arts that make this place unlike anywhere else in the mountains.
