Property Description
Just under eight miles from Downtown Asheville, Southcliff rises along the south-facing slopes of Cedar Mountain—a master-planned conservation community where nature is truly at your doorstep. Tucked along quiet Higdon Lane, this 1.24-acre private retreat feels like a well-kept secret. Surrounded by protected woodlands and bordering undeveloped HOA conservation land, the property enjoys direct access to nearly six miles of private nature trails while remaining remarkably close to Asheville. Honored in the 2014 Parade of Homes, this custom Living Stone Design + Build residence showcases distinctive mountain architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and thoughtful performance. Inside, dramatic stone fireplaces- two gas and one wood-burning—anchor the living spaces, complemented by handsome fir beams and warm natural materials. The connection between home and landscape is effortless. A Brazilian hardwood wrap-around deck extends into the surrounding woodland, creating a secluded setting for morning coffee, afternoon entertaining, or evenings in the hot tub. Beyond the deck, protected forest provides a constantly changing backdrop of seasonal color and natural beauty. The lower level expands the home's versatility with private walkout guest quarters, a stunning great room with a soaring stone fireplace, and a dedicated wellness retreat. A private gym and sauna create an inviting environment for fitness, restoration, and quiet relaxation. The gym is equipped with an Image 10.6 folding treadmill, Nitrofit Plus whole-body vibration machine, Precor 853 Adaptive Motion Trainer, and Body-Solid weight-training system with bench. And off the great room, an adjoining artist studio provides a peaceful space for creative pursuits. After a workout or an active day outdoors, the private sauna, hot tub, and outdoor stone patio with fire ring offer inviting spaces to unwind and reconnect with the natural surroundings—all without leaving home. Performance and efficiency are equally considered. The home carries Energy Star certification and a HERS-50 rating and features geothermal heating and cooling, instant hot water, and a beautifully finished ICF basement that expands the home's living and entertaining possibilities. The design thoughtfully accommodates a future elevator, while an electric-vehicle charging station adds contemporary convenience. A Living Stone Design + Build home maintenance contract further enhances ease of ownership. At 20 Higdon Lane, craftsmanship, comfort, privacy, wellness, and the natural landscape converge. With protected forest at the doorstep, miles of trails to explore, and Asheville just minutes away, this is a sophisticated mountain retreat designed not simply to admire its surroundings, but to live beautifully within them.
