Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the scenic 175-acre, 18-hole golf course, this remarkable residence is truly a retreat in the heart of the High Country. Situated on one of the larger tracts within the community, the expansive 2.6-acre wooded lot provides exceptional seclusion while still enjoying the benefits of golf community living.
