122 Azule Ridge Drive The View That Can Never Be Taken! Perched at the literal summit of the private, gated community of South Mountain Peaks, this impeccable estate offers a rare 200-plus-degree un-blockable panorama stretching from the Southeast to the West-Northwest. While other homes "have a view, " this property is a fortress of vista protection; with road frontage on three sides and a neighboring home already established on the non-view side, no future construction can ever encroach on your direct line of sight to Mount Mitchell and the Blue Ridge chain. The residence is defined by its signature dual-prow architecture, featuring soaring walls of floor-to-ceiling glass on both the front and rear of the home. This unique configuration pulls the mountains into the Great Room from every angle. Two sets of double French doors-one on the front and one on the rear-open to a massive, full wrap-around covered deck (8' and 10' depths), seamlessly blending indoor luxury with the crisp mountain air. The Great Room boasts stunning tongue & groove ceilings, warm wood flooring throughout the main level, and a cozy gas fireplace with timber beam accents. The kitchen is equipped with custom Hickory cabinetry, a center island, and high-end finishes; pre-plumbed for a future gas stove and adjacent to a screened-in porch for bug-free al fresco dining. Suite Retreats - Three bedrooms function as private primary suites, each with its own dedicated full bathroom. The Primary Suite on the main floor features timber beam cross-ceilings and private sliding door access to the deck. Versatile Living - Officially listed as a 3-bedroom (3-BR septic), the home offers a total of 5 sleeping/bonus rooms and 4.5 bathrooms across 2, 500 finished square feet. The Finished Walk-out Basement, accessed via a spiral staircase, features a family room, a fourth bathroom shared by two bonus rooms, and a lockable owner's storage closet mirroring the front prow. Build Quality - A high-performance build featuring a metal roof, Navien tankless water heater, and a rock-solid Superior Walls foundation. The Grounds - The gentle 1-acre lot is meticulously landscaped with a gravel U-shaped "in and out" driveway, wooden farm fencing, and privacy-shielding pine trees. Outdoor Amenities - Features a firepit, adirondack chairs, porch swings, and a dedicated hammock area, all connected by gravel walking paths. The Investment Edge - Exclusively utilized as a high-end rental property, this home is offered fully furnished (excluding the pool table and screened-deck picnic table). With integrated indoor/outdoor speakers and cable connections in every major room, this is a turn-key legacy asset ready for an immediate transition or a high-yield 1031 exchange.
