Property Description
Inside, the residence is warm, elegant and distinctive. Furnishings, finishes and decorative elements were individually selected to complement its refined French mountain character. Substantial stonework, richly finished wood, exposed beams, graceful arches, custom cabinetry and carefully chosen lighting create enduring quality throughout. This is Western North Carolina luxury real estate at its most thoughtful, substantial without feeling imposing and sophisticated without losing the warmth of a true mountain home.
A dramatic great room with soaring ceilings, expansive windows and an impressive stone fireplace flows into the dining area and beautifully appointed kitchen. Whether entertaining, preparing dinner or enjoying a quiet evening by the fire, long-range views remain part of every experience. The main level primary suite is a private sanctuary with its own fireplace, beautifully appointed bath and private balcony overlooking the mountains, perfect for morning coffee or watching clouds move through the valleys below. The finished lower level includes three additional bedrooms and baths, including a second primary suite mirroring the comfort and generous proportions of the main level retreat. This arrangement provides privacy for family, extended stay guests or multigenerational living. With four bedrooms and four full baths, the home offers grand gathering spaces and private retreats where everyone can feel at home.
Beyond the finished living areas, extensive unfinished space provides flexibility for recreation, fitness, wine storage, a theater, workshop or collection space. The measured floor plan reflects approximately 4,723 square feet of finished living area and more than 10,000 square feet of total measured space, including extensive unfinished and excluded areas. Covered porches and outdoor living spaces extend the home into its surroundings, offering a front-row seat to cool summer mornings, autumn color and unforgettable days above the clouds. For buyers seeking a mountain home with long-range views, this property offers a unique combination of elevation, privacy, protected scenery, refined interiors and generous space.
Located within Wolf Laurel, a private, high elevation gated mountain community near Asheville, the property is surrounded by the Pisgah National Forest. The community encompasses more than 5,000 acres, reaches elevations above 5,000 feet and offers gated access, road maintenance and direct Appalachian Trail access. Optional memberships provide access to championship mountain golf, clubhouse dining, fitness facilities, swimming, pickleball, tennis, trout fishing and an active calendar of social and recreational activities. Nearby Hatley Pointe brings skiing, year-round dining at Smoke & Timber and a new lift-served downhill mountain bike park opening in August 2026. Asheville, NC, and Johnson City, TN, are each approximately 50 minutes away, placing two regional airports, healthcare, dining and cultural destinations within convenient reach.
817 Running Cedar is more than a luxury home near Asheville or another beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain home. It is a fully realized vision, architecture, interiors and landscape working together to create a true legacy property inside the gates of Wolf Laurel.
