This rare architectural gem offers a timeless organic modern design inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. Crafted with a rich brick and classic redwood exterior, the unique residence boasts a warm southern exposure that floods the main living spaces with natural light through expansive banks of glass and handsome exposed beams over warm wood and tile floors. The crown jewel of the home is its spectacular upper-level Belvedere—a private, 360-degree treetop sanctuary glass room anchored by its own wood-burning fireplace, providing panoramic canopy views. Downstairs, a second masonry fireplace sets the stage for cozy mountain evenings, and original architectural prints convey with the sale. Set at the end of a quiet, paved dead-end road, the property provides complete privacy within a beautiful neighborhood. A thick perimeter wood buffer wraps the gentle, flat grounds, which feature stone terracing, an outdoor fire pit, a horseshoe pit, a detached garage/workshop, a separate storage shed, and started groundwork for a pumped recirculating creek feature that is absolutely perfect for custom gardens. The paved driveway provides easy access, and city water is already connected. The premier location is truly unbeatable, offering unmatched privacy while remaining only minutes from downtown Murphy. You are in a prime spot close to Erlanger Western Carolina Hospital, Cherokee County schools, Tri-County Community College (TCCC), and the historic charm of Brasstown. Priced aggressively to account for minor cosmetic updates, this home offers an exceptional value-add opportunity to customize a true architectural statement piece. Sold AS-IS with owner financing terms available upon request for qualified buyers.
