Moondance River Retreat

New Property Listing!

Unique Riverside Sanctuary Near Asheville! Just five miles down the road from the Asheville Regional Airport, you're transported down a gated, paved drive to a private paradise at the Moondance River Retreat. Each living space in this custom contemporary has been crafted to provide a peaceful escape, from the multi-level flagstone patio with a sunken hot tub to the sumptuous main suite spa and dry sauna. The home's expansive layout includes double dining areas and a sun-drenched living room that's perfect for entertaining. Wonder at the massive stacked stone hearth that looks as though it has risen from the river itself, adding a gas fireplace to the living area and an intriguing centerpiece to the adjacent bedroom. You'll discover noteworthy design details at every turn in the soft ambiance of this gorgeous home, including wormy chestnut cabinets, warm terracotta floor tiles, tasteful artwork, and a steel catwalk to the private upper-level rec room and home office. Three spacious bedrooms on the lower level ensure that everyone is comfortable after a long day of mountain adventures. The outdoor spaces at Moondance River Retreat were designed to provide the ultimate interaction with the river: lounge in quiet contemplation on a padded chaise, nap on the front porch futon, or walk down to the Adirondack chairs on the river bank to enjoy the sounds of the water. On a hot day, a dip in the river is a great way to cool off! The landscaped lawn is a feast for the eyes in any season with extensive hardscaping, not a neighbor in sight, and a wood-burning fire pit for late-night bonfires. The opportunities for fun are endless here, so put your feet up and relax at Moondance River Retreat, a resort-quality private vacation rental that's still within easy reach of everything Asheville.
