“Sunset in Paradise” A Rare Architectural Masterpiece in The Lodges at Eagles Nest
Experience a life above the clouds at Sunset in Paradise, a $4.5M architectural triumph set in the exclusive Sunset section of The Lodges at Eagles Nest. This 1.2-acre estate showcases 4,959 Sq. Ft. of impeccable craftsmanship, where modern mountain architecture meets refined sophistication.
Perched at 4,400 feet, this home commands panoramic, horizon-to-horizon views stretching from North Carolina to Tennessee, sunsets so breathtaking they seem painted by hand.
The exterior radiates mountain-modern prestige with white pine-stained siding, soaring glass walls, rustic steel beams, and a $ 250,000 custom landscape featuring natural boulders, hand-laid stone, and designer lighting. The two-car garage features frosted glass doors and a hand-painted bronze epoxy floor—an art piece unto itself.
Step inside through a custom glass entry, where a grand chandelier and two-story glass panels flood the great room with natural light. Here, modern artistry meets mountain warmth—nickel-gap ceilings, white pine beams, stonework, and a sculptural rusted metal fireplace define the living space.
The chef’s kitchen is both a showpiece and a workspace, featuring a marble waterfall island, professional-grade appliances, a wine cooler, and an adjoining formal dining area.
Entertainment abounds on the lower level, complete with a custom bar, secondary wine cooler, and flexible lounge—perfect for a home theater or game retreat. Indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly through custom View Rail steel staircases, walls of glass, and expansive decks crowned with a hot tub and framed by timber beams and stone columns.
Five lavish bedrooms and four and a half designer baths exude serenity and style. The main-level primary suite is a private spa sanctuary with convenient access to adjacent utilities. Every inch showcases curated art, bespoke furniture, and master craftsmanship.
Within the gates of Eagles Nest, owners enjoy world-class amenities—exclusive access to ATV & hiking trails, a ropes course, dog park, mini-golf, sports courts, winery, fitness center, dining at Epic Chophouse & Sportsman’s Grille, helicopter pads, and riverside trout fishing along 4,000+ feet of the Elk River.
Eagles Nest HOA welcomes both short-term and long-term rental opportunities, offering flexibility for owners and investors alike.
This property includes a 4-year home warranty.
