About 543 Gorge View Drive

Perched on the rim of John's River Gorge with unparalleled views, this elegant mountain home is a rare offering in desirable Misty Mountain! With views stretching from the back of Blowing Rock to the Charlotte skyline, there are four levels of covered porches ready to watch the sunrise or entertain. The inviting foyer leads into the great room with a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace and a wall of windows that frame the gorge views. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with premium Wolf appliances, a prep sink, a generous pantry, and a built-in wine cooler—perfectly designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. Seamlessly connected indoor and outdoor living spaces, including the covered porch, invite gatherings year-round. The entire upper level is dedicated to an expansive private primary suite, complete with a cozy sitting room, a reading retreat wrapped in warmth by a stone fireplace and built-in bookshelves, and panoramic gorge views. The ensuite bath features extensive tile work throughout with a soaking tub and heated floor. Spacious closet with a built-in ironing board and vanity bar. Two guest suites on the middle level each feature ensuite tiled baths and sweeping views of the gorge, complemented by a cozy den that opens to a covered porch—perfect for quiet mornings or evening relaxation. The lower level is outfitted for a game room with a well-appointed kitchenette, dining area, and yet another covered porch for enjoying the mountain air. The laundry room located on the main level leads out to a two car covered parking area with vaulted tongue and groove ceilings. Elegant landscaping with flowering perennials surrounds the front of the home, which is gracefully crested on the edge of the gorge. Every detail of this elated mountain home has been designed thoughtfully to exude warmth and timeless charm. The property is being sold with an additional full building lot, and a .1 acre parcel. Furnishings are negotiable.
