Misty Mountain Hop - Luxury home! Views, hot tub, 4 fireplaces, game table!

So I've decided what I'm gonna do now
So I'm packing my bags for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now
Over the hills where the spirits fly, oh, I really don't know
- Misty Mountain Hop, Led Zeppelin

You and your loved ones are welcome at Misty Mountain Hop! This one-of-a-kind mountain home is more than a place to stay; it's an experience. As you pull up the paved driveway and unload, you'll immediately see the welcoming entrance to the home. There's a cobblestone patio waiting for you with a stone woodburning fireplace and Adirondack chairs around the outside, along with more seating.

Enter the home with just two steps up from the parking area. From the two-story entry, you'll be able to see the kitchen and the dining areas along with the spacious living room. To your right are two dining tables. One seats 6-8 people and has a gas burning fireplace behind it, and the other seats 8 people and has a Juliet balcony behind it with an iron wrought two-seat table & chairs. There's also 4 leather high-seating chairs at the kitchen bar counter.

A few steps beyond the dining areas will lead you into the sumptuously appointed gourmet kitchen. The chefs in your group will love preparing tasty dishes here! Custom cabinets, Corian counters, stainless steel appliances including a 6-burner gas range with pot filler, and a butler's pantry with a dishwasher, sink, and pass-through window into the main kitchen.

To the left of the entry, you'll find a corridor to a spacious half bath as well as the elevator (kept locked unless requested - please see note below.) Across the way and around the corner is a coat closet. A few steps down, the room opens up into the gracious living room. Vaulted ceilings and several windows create an open and airy feeling. Leather furnishings are arranged around a large TV and a gas fireplace, and there is a little table at the back of the room for board games as well as a wet bar with mini fridge and sink.

Off the living room is a three-season sunroom. Screened windows abound letting in ample natural light, and a selection of furniture is arranged around a gas fireplace. This is a wonderful room to relax with a good book and open the windows to enjoy the cool mountain breezes.

The top floor of the home is ideal for an entire family. In a semi-private nook you'll find a daybed with twin trundle and its own TV with xBox One, as well as a shelf full of books for all ages. A small bedroom across the way offers a twin-over-full bunk bed set. And the enormous master suite offers a King bed with TV, sitting area with gas fireplace, and private bathroom with a soaking tub under a skylight, double glass basin-style vanities, a tiled shower with rain head and body sprayers, and a huge walkin closet.

Downstairs you'll find a huge game room with a shuffleboard and pool table, TV with PlayStation4, and leather furnishings, as well as doors to the lower level deck which has a picnic table and a set of Adirondack chairs. Across from the game room is a wine cellar, which includes three wine refrigerators as well as a microwave and sink, and a half bath.

Down the hall is the first of three bedroom suites. This room offers a King bed, TV, and a queen-sized fold-out couch, as well as a private bathroom with a tiled shower. Around the corner are two more suites; one offers a King bed and TV and its bath has a tub/shower combination and the second has two Queen beds, TV, and a bath with tub/shower.

You may be asking by now, “Where is the sixth bedroom?” Around the corner from the kitchen, you'll find that this spectacular house continues with more wonderful spaces! Off the hallway behind the kitchen you'll find the garage, with one bay available to park in (inside access only) as well as a foosball table, ping pong table, and set of cornhole boards. Up a flight of stairs at the end of the hall is an entire separate single-room apartment which features a cozy kitchenette, a sitting area with a TV and xBox One and sleeper sofa, and a King bed and daybed/trundle. There is also a full bath with shower in this apartment.

The back yard here is a great space to gather and make lasting memories. The outdoor kitchen built into the deck features granite counters and built-in fridge, Egg grill, and gas grill. There's an 8-person table as well as a seating area with a heater. A couple steps down from the deck is a firepit area with Adirondacks around it, perfect for a night of S'mores and storytelling.

With all that this spectacular home offers, you may not ever want to leave. If you do, you'll be pleased to find yourself in a perfect location less than 10 minutes to both Boone and Blowing Rock! All of the best shopping and dining the High Country offers is just a short drive away. Make your plans today to experience Misty Mountain Hop!
