A rare mountain estate in the heart of Boone, set on 11.3 acres across three parcels, less than a mile from Appalachian State University campus. Five fully renovated historic structures combine 19th-century history, modern comfort and sustainability on a property that is currently operating as Tripadvisor’s #1 Bed and Breakfast in Boone. Lovill House (1875). Six bedrooms, each with ensuite bath, plus a half bath. Gracious living and dining rooms, a large kitchen, and an expansive covered porch. Original architectural features remain throughout, including the staircase, several fireplaces, a wraparound southern porch, and wormy chestnut finishes. Lovill Cabin (1998). A separate two-bedroom, one-bath guest cabin with a full kitchen, a living area with a wood-burning fireplace, outdoor decks, and a screened porch. The Springhouse (1931). A separate one-bedroom guest cabin with a loft, one bath, an efficiency kitchen, and a porch. Lovill Barn (1875). A restored two-story barn used for weddings, graduations, and other guests related events. The upper level seats about 50 guests. The main level, with original horse stalls and a brick floor, suits smaller gatherings. The barn is accessed by a driveway made of permeable pavers and surrounded with beautiful landscaping and a hidden waterfall. The Powerhouse (2021). A separate building designed to match the architectural design of the main house that combines the solar generation, battery storage, and a back up connection to the electrical grid to power the entire property. The Powerhouse also serves as conditioned space for guest’s pets. The current owners completed a full renovation of every building, pairing historic character with modern luxury and sustainability. The project was awarded the North Carolina Sustainable Energy Project of the Year in 2021, and the Lovill estate has been featured in Southern Living, Our State Magazine, MSNOW, and other publications. The Lovill House holds a 4.99 out of 5 rating across several hundred Google reviews. Recognitions include KAYAK Top-Rated Property, NC GreenTravel’s highest certification, and the Sustainable Tourism award from Explore Boone. The house also holds a distinct place in local history. The state charter for what is now Appalachian State University was written here in 1903. W. R. Lovill, attorney for the Tweetsie Railroad, lived here with his family and was the mayor of Boone during the years the Appalachian Theatre, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the federal post office were completed. The house is not on the historic register, but both the exterior and interior retain classic period features. The undeveloped parcels offer further development potential in a constrained market with demand for housing and lodging less than one mile from campus and downtown.

This one-of-a-kind compound of luxurious, eclectic residential dwellings straddles a waterfall and commands a draw anchored by a rambunctious mountain stream, all within minutes of Flat Rock, Hendersonville and Champion Hills. The rambling homes on site are carefully situated on the hillside contours and front on bold Perry Creek which, at the entrance to the main house, actually runs underneath the front deck before falling away in a cascade that tumbles down the draw and runs past an open, park-like area below the houses. Each of the three houses has a distinct character, ranging from American farmhouse to sleek modern, with a magical fairytale-style cottage extending a comfortable porch out over the creek. Inside, the homes are marked by rustic vintage luxury, with hardwood floors and gourmet kitchens. Modern bathrooms feature tile, marble, and porcelain surfaces accented by hand-picked rustic fixtures, free-standing luxury tubs and glassed-in showers. Custom windows include floor-to-ceiling panels, sliding glass doors, skylights and banks of clerestory. Outside, living spaces range from open flagstone courtyards contained by river rock walls and a large, flat pea-gravel dance floor/gaming area to several cozy and intimate dining areas and a terraced firepit. Wandering trails and a bridge make for easy access to the stream and creek-side leisure areas. This property is genuinely unique and special, and requires a personal visit to understand the complex interaction between the natural water, rock, and forest outside; the landforms and setting of the homes, decks and outdoor living spaces; and the curated interior appointments that all combine to elevate this property to a higher level of comfort, relaxation, and ease of living.

A Legacy Mountain Estate Adjacent to Shunkawken Falls on White Oak Mountain in Columbus, NC! ***Some homes offer beautiful views... Few offer a soundtrack!!!*** Some properties are purchased because of the home. Others are purchased because of what can never be recreated. This extraordinary White Oak Mountain estate offers both. For those who understand that true luxury is defined by rarity, this is more than a residence—it is an experience, a legacy, and an irreplaceable mountain sanctuary. Offering three separately deeded parcels, three bedrooms, two full baths, two half baths, and an unmatched setting beside Shunkawken Falls, this remarkable estate combines architectural character with one of Western North Carolina's most captivating natural landscapes. While interiors can always be personalized, you cannot recreate three adjoining parcels on White Oak Mountain with panoramic mountain vistas, a private gated approach, and the privilege of living beside one of Polk County's most treasured waterfalls. Visitors travel this scenic mountain to experience Shunkawken Falls and continue to the iconic Sunset Rock Overlook. Here, breathtaking views and the soothing sounds of cascading water become part of everyday life. There is no need to chase the perfect sunset or search for the best overlook—your front-row seat begins the moment you arrive home. A gated entrance winds through towering hardwoods, dramatic boulders, and striking iron sculptures before revealing sweeping views across Columbus, the foothills, and into Upstate South Carolina. Designed to embrace the landscape, the residence features soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, a dramatic spiral staircase, an architectural open elevator, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and a wraparound deck with sleek glass railings that blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. Morning coffee, evening cocktails, and unforgettable gatherings are elevated by the ever-changing mountain scenery and the peaceful soundtrack of the waterfall below. Three separately deeded parcels provide exceptional privacy, flexibility, and long-term value while offering the rare opportunity to create a true legacy estate. The greatest investment has already been made by nature itself—the land, the elevation, the waterfall, and the views. Although wonderfully secluded, the property is just minutes from Columbus, Tryon, and Landrum, the Tryon International Equestrian Center, FENCE, wineries, golf, hiking, fine dining, and convenient access to Asheville, Greenville, Hendersonville, and Spartanburg. Showings by appointment only. Proof of funds or lender pre-approval required prior to confirming a private tour - call or text with any questions or to set up an appointment!
