Some homes are beautiful. Others are truly one of a kind.
The Fox Estate at 81 Stillmont Circle in Cashiers, North Carolina, is an extraordinary example of Mountain Modernism offered at $6,895,000.
Set on 4.9 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this remarkable 5-bedroom residence was originally commissioned in 1974 and has undergone a meticulous multi-year restoration. Its most unforgettable feature? The home actually spans the private, spring-fed waters of Asbury Lake, with a natural creek flowing beneath the residence into the trout-stocked lake.
Walls of glass, stacked stone, vaulted ceilings, and a dramatic granite boulder fireplace create an incredible connection between architecture and the surrounding landscape. The estate is offered turnkey and includes a custom 24-piece furniture collection designed by architect James Howard Fox, original conceptual drawings, and sculptural gates inspired by the spirit of Taliesin West.
The property also includes a beautifully renovated two-bedroom guest cottage with views of Whiteside Mountain.
More than a mountain retreat, The Fox Estate is a piece of architectural history and one of the most distinctive properties on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.
