MAIN UNIT – Elegance and Comfort Across Two Levels
The main unit features the upper two floors of Tree Top Lodge, combining luxurious living spaces with panoramic forest and Montreat Valley views:
• Living Area: The centerpiece is the coffered-ceiling great room, with expansive windows with canopy and mountain views, a hand-crafted river stone wood-burning fireplace, and thick reclaimed pine floors.
• Kitchen and Dining: A fully-equipped chef’s kitchen (double refrigerators and dishwashers) flows seamlessly into the dining room, where a large table comfortably seats 12 or more. French doors lead to a screened-in large porch with additional dining and lounging spaces, cooled by ceiling fans. Adjacent is a smaller porch with a Weber grill piped directly to the house propane system.
• Bedrooms: The main floor includes two bedrooms with corner window valley views—one with a king bed and another with a full bed and bunk bed—plus a shared bathroom with a walk-in shower and toilet with rails. A versatile bonus room features a piano, gaming center, board games, toys, and a memory foam sofa bed, making it the eighth bedroom of the main unit.
• Lower Level: The luxurious master suite boasts a king-sized bed, private porch, and a marble en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. Four additional bedrooms include two queen rooms with en-suite bathrooms and two jack-and-jill bedrooms with shared bathrooms, all thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light.
• Access is easy from the four-car parking area to all of the upper floor. No steps from the cars to the King-sized upper floor bedroom. Plus, the shared bathroom has a walk-in shower and tasteful handrails for the toilet area. The porch is also accessible without any steps from the kitchen.
