253 Highway 161 South All-Brick Custom Estate. Some homes are built to impress. Others are built to last. This extraordinary custom estate offers both. Discover a truly distinctive property nestled on approximately three private acres, backing to the natural beauty of Kings Mountain State Park. Designed and constructed by a commercial general contractor and engineer, this remarkable 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom residence delivers a level of structural integrity, craftsmanship, and thoughtful engineering rarely encountered in traditional residential construction. Behind its timeless all-brick exterior lies an impressive infrastructure featuring commercial-inspired steel-stud construction, a reinforced concrete second floor supported by structural steel, fire-rated interior assemblies, and exceptionally engineered drainage systems. The six-inch exterior walls incorporate rock wool insulation, providing excellent thermal performance, while a brand-new roof adds further peace of mind. These substantial construction elements represent an investment in durability, efficiency, and longevity that would be extremely costly to reproduce today. Inside, approximately 4, 900 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space showcases authentic craftsmanship and architectural warmth. Soaring cathedral ceilings, 10-foot main-level ceilings, custom solid-oak cabinetry and doors, rich mahogany detailing, and three traditional fireplaces create an inviting atmosphere of understated luxury. The expansive great room features a dramatic custom dry-stack stone fireplace, establishing a beautiful gathering space for family and guests. Step outside and experience three acres of privacy, mature natural surroundings, expansive outdoor entertaining areas, and access to trails leading into Kings Mountain State Park.
