A brand new mountain retreat (finished in March 2018) which is unique and incomparable.
Our „Almond Trees Ranch“ with its 3400 ft elevation, is offering breathtaking views, secluded and quite wilderness, yet it is close to all necessary amenities (15 min. to Bryson City).
This is not the typical, many times seen wooden cabin. This is a specious (about 2000 sqft), luxurious and open floorplan house, which perfectly combines modern and traditional elements and blends beautifully into the mountain setting.
We are situated in a gated community with property sizes of minimum 2 acres and all paved roads. To keep the charm, only the driveway to the house is graveled (4×4 required).
The great room with its 17 ft high vaulted ceiling and huge wall of windows facing south, is making sure that you can catch and enjoy the views all day long. Here you can relax either in front of the see-through gas fireplace (with remote control) on comfortable leather swing chairs or gather with your family or friends on the plush leather sofas and chaise. There is a 65“ 4k smart LED flatscreen in the great room with Dish satelite service in case you just want to unwind from the exciting adventures of the day.
The custom build kitchen with granit countertops and all stainless steel appliances is fully equipped with everything you need to enjoy cooking with and for your family and friends. Small appliances such as blender, mixer, hand mixer, coffee machine or toaster are from Kitchen Aid. There is also a large Crockpot and a rotating square belgian waffel maker available for your convenience. All dishes, silverware, etc. are available 12 times so you don’t need to worry about running out of it too quick.
The dining room offers a huge dining table with comfortable leather chairs. Also from the kitchen and dining you can enjoy the warmth and coziness of the see through fireplace.
Each of the 3 bedrooms has a king size bed, is uniquely decorated and equiped with a 4k smart LED flatscreen sized between 43“ and 49“ and Dish satellite service. In all bedrooms the lights can be dimed to a level that suits your needs and in two bedrooms an adjustable color mood light system is available as well.

Both bathrooms have a luxurious European style double vanity with granit countertops, vessel sinks and highest quality European faucets from Hans Grohe. They also both have fully tiled showers and are equiped with European rainshower systems. In the master bathroom an oversized, freestanding soak-in bathtub is completing the large, spa like bathroom. A hair dryer and an LED magnifying shaving mirror is available in each bathroom. For the powder room you can of course expect the same high quality standards.

The laundry room has a full size brand name washer and dryer, iron and ironing board as well as a first aid kit.
Outside, the Almond Tree Ranch is offering an almost 60 ft wide deck which extends over the complete width of the house and can be accessed from the great room and two of the bedrooms through the oversized sliding doors. The center part of the deck is fully covered by the extended roof to offer enough shade during the hot summer midday sun. If it’s getting to hot on the south facing deck, the cosy covered porch facing north is offering additional outside space.
For passionate BBQ enthusiasts a gas grill from Weber will satisfy your needs.
And if your body needs soothing after a day of hiking, mountain biking or white water rafting, you can pamper yourself in the luxury spa like hot tub. It offers a unique side-by-side lounge and adirondack chair and multi-level seating. It makes this spa fun, functional and therapeutic. Two high performance pumps combined with “variable volume induction” system power 50 multi-functional jets for optimum massage therapy. It’s also equipped with a bluetooth stereo system and deluxe LED perimeter lighting, illuminated fountain jets and cup holders.
We built this house with the intention to have a house for us and our guests that does not feel like a rental house. We want you to feel like home, with all the comfort and amenities you need, to make the best out of your valuable vacation time.
