Luxury Mountain Homes North Carolina Ferguson Waterfall House

Andrew Caldwell

And you thought a showstopping fireplace was a focal point. At this recently listed Ferguson, North Carolina home — a few miles outside of Blowing Rock—you can have a real waterfall cascading through your grounds, making for a beautiful backdrop to lazy afternoons reading on the porch or gathered around a pitcher of sweet tea with friends. “This home is an architectural wonder, with a private creek and waterfalls directly alongside the home. It is a rare offering, as creeks are typically found at property borders and not near the home itself—and waterfalls are very seldom visible from a home. The estate is the perfect blend of luxury and privacy, nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Parkway," Jim Otterman, Premier Sotheby’s International Realty, said of the property.Indeed, 762 Elk Ridge Road has high ceilings, walls of windows, and several decks to give you stunning views of the waterfall, with all parts of the home thoughtfully designed by the architect-owner. But there's more than just babbling curtains of water: The majestic abode also features updated interior with a Rumford-style fireplace, a chef’s kitchen and pantry with extended cooking area, a 566-square-foot guest suite, and a pool. Keep scrolling to see the three-bedroom, four-bathroom home that sits on 10 acres within the private equestrian community of Leatherwood Mountains (adjoining properties, with a total of three homes on 40 acres, are also for sale). Please invite us over for that sweet tea.
