35 Firefly Ridge Trail unit: 1 Welcome to this beautiful modern craftsman-style mountain home located in the Alexander area of Western North Carolina, where peaceful surroundings meet convenient access to nearby mountain towns and Asheville. This thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features custom finishes, spacious outdoor living areas, vaulted ceilings, and stunning long-range mountain views that capture the natural beauty of the region. The home sits on a south-facing lot that enjoys beautiful natural light throughout the day, offering warm morning sun and glowing afternoon light across the landscape. The property has been carefully oriented to maximize privacy, allowing you to enjoy the mountain setting while still being part of a welcoming small HOA community located within a Natural Habitat designated area. As you arrive, the concrete driveway creates a smooth and welcoming approach to the property and leads to a spacious two-car garage. The lot offers a combination of level and gently sloping yard areas, creating usable outdoor space while preserving the natural character of the mountains. One of the standout features of the home is the expansive covered deck space designed for year-round outdoor living. The large decks provide an ideal setting for relaxing, entertaining, or simply taking in the breathtaking long-range mountain views. Whether you are enjoying a quiet morning coffee or gathering with friends in the evening, the covered outdoor spaces allow you to fully appreciate the surrounding scenery in every season. Inside, the home features a warm and inviting layout designed for both comfort and functionality. The living room welcomes you with vaulted ceilings that create a bright and open atmosphere while drawing your eyes toward the mountain views beyond. Natural light fills the space through thoughtfully placed windows, allowing the outdoors to become part of the living experience. The primary bedroom also features vaulted ceilings, creating a spacious and peaceful retreat within the home. Two additional bedrooms offer flexible space for guests, family, or a home office. The 2.5 bathrooms are conveniently positioned to support everyday living and visiting guests. An unfinished basement offers excellent potential for future expansion. This space could easily be transformed into additional living quarters, a recreation room, home gym, media space, or guest suite. With generous square footage available, the basement gives the next owner the opportunity to customize the home and add value over time. Outdoor living continues beyond the deck with a yard that includes both level and gently sloping areas. The level section creates room for gardening, outdoor activities, or enjoying the fresh mountain air, while the sloping portion maintains privacy and enhances the natural feel of the property. Location is another major highlight of this home. While tucked into a peaceful mountain setting, the property remains close to many of the area's most charming towns and destinations. It is conveniently located near Marshall, Leicester, Hot Springs, Mars Hill, and Weaverville, making it easy to access restaurants, local shops, outdoor recreation, and community events. The home is also approximately 10 minutes from the upcoming Novant Health medical facility in Weaverville and about 20 minutes to vibrant downtown Asheville. This property offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy mountain living with comfort, privacy, and accessibility. With its modern craftsman style, vaulted ceilings, covered decks, long-range views, two-car garage, unfinished basement potential, and beautiful sun exposure, this home combines thoughtful design with the natural beauty of Western North Carolina. Whether you are searching for a full-time residence or a mountain retreat, this Alexander-area home creates the perfect setting to enjoy the mountain lifestyle while remaining close to the energy and culture of Asheville and the surrounding communities.
