“An A-frame retreat where massive windows blur the line between cabin and canopy”
The great room rises through the signature A-frame ceiling, with massive windows that pull the surrounding forest inside. A modern gas fireplace anchors the living area, where a swing chair reading nook offers a quiet perch apart from the main seating. The main floor holds a king bedroom with an en-suite rainfall shower, while a reading loft on the second floor connects two queen bedrooms sharing a bath. The third-floor sleeping area feels suspended in the trees, a built-in king bed surrounded by windows with views of distant peaks, a small desk positioned to take advantage of the sight lines. The basement opens into a game and movie room with arcade games, a different energy for evenings that call for play rather than quiet. Outside, expansive decks extend the living space, with a hot tub and private sauna for unwinding after days spent exploring. A net lounge and hammock offer places to settle with a book or nothing at all.
Solhaven sits on six private wooded acres of hillside in North Carolina's High Country. The cabin is surrounded by forest, with old logging roads winding through the property for those inclined to explore on foot. The Watauga River runs just five minutes away. Downtown Boone, with its restaurants and shops, is a ten-minute drive, while the Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain, and three ski resorts are all within easy reach. Banner Elk and Blowing Rock offer quieter town centers nearby.
Mornings here might start slowly in the swing chair with coffee, watching light filter through the trees. Afternoons could mean a hike along the old logging road at the top of the property, or a drive to Grandfather Mountain or one of the nearby waterfalls. The sauna and hot tub tend to draw guests in after active days, while evenings often shift between the fire pit under open sky and the basement game room. The pace adjusts to the season and the group, whether that means skiing nearby in winter or simply settling into the quiet that six wooded acres provide.
