Tucked into the trees atop a mountain across from an apple orchard, this authentic log cabin has been renovated from the ground up — and it shows in every detail. Original hand-hewn logs and chinking meet crisp shiplap, wide-plank floors, and a soft sage kitchen with butcher block counters. The vaulted great room ladders up to a sleeping loft above and slides open to multiple porches below, where the mountains do the rest of the talking. Outside, a cedar barrel sauna sits just off the deck beside a cozy outdoor shower — the kind of pairing that turns a weekend into a reset. Inside, the bath is finished in custom pebble tile, floor to ceiling, with matte black fixtures and a rain head. Every system is dialed in: brand-new tankless gas water heater, mini-split heating and cooling, and a full top-to-bottom renovation behind the walls. It comes FULLY FURNISHED and ready to go. Leather seating, a real king bed in the loft, dishes in the cabinets, art on the walls. Walk in with a duffel bag and stay. What makes it rare: it's move-in ready as a second home and turnkey as a short-term rental. Gated community, mountain views, covered porch, sauna, and a setting so still you'll notice the quiet before you notice anything else. Quiet beyond quiet. Come see it. Broker Interest

Something different landed on Beech Mountain. Overlook Homes— known for builds that actually mean something — has delivered a custom, FULLY FURNISHED, A-frame at 122 Wintergreen Way that earns the word custom in every room, on every wall, at every turn. The bones are right: pine siding warm as a campfire, a standing seam metal roof built to outlast the decade, and that unmistakable A-frame silhouette tucked into the hardwood canopy like it was always supposed to be there. Step inside and the white oak does the talking. Custom stairs, bunk built-ins, and shelving — all white oak, all made for this house specifically. The Humm indoor sauna is the kind of detail that separates a spec house from a project someone cared about. The rooftop deck and hot tub make the treetop views something you can sit in, not just look at. The kitchen is fully appointed — refrigerator, dishwasher, range — with a tankless gas water heater and freestanding gas stove rounding out a mechanical package that performs as well as the finishes suggest it should. Washer/dryer combo means longer stays without the math. Sleeps six comfortably. New construction. No deferred maintenance. No compromises borrowed from the builder's budget. Just a house on a mountain, done right.
