This exquisite home was designed so that the extensive grounds were equally important as the thoughtful architecture. That same consideration shapes the interiors, where every detail, from the exquisite kitchen to the beautifully appointed private baths, reflects a commitment to personal luxury and comfort. Expansive, light-filled living spaces unfold entirely on one level-without a single step. Built in 2020 by David Peagler, one of Big Canoe's most respected builders, this sophisticated contemporary home brings a unique architectural presence to its mountain setting. Generous proportions give way to intimate places to read, converse, or simply enjoy the quiet. The expansive kitchen is a striking centerpiece at the heart of the home, featuring a six-burner Bertazzoni range with a griddle, a separate scullery, and ample pantry and storage space. Two distinct living areas accommodate gatherings with ease, while the sunlit family room, with its fireplace and adjoining library area, offers a quieter retreat. Two individually appointed primary suites occupy one side of the home, with a dedicated laundry room conveniently nearby. Two additional bedrooms across the house provide privacy for guests. A spacious, heated and cooled corridor was designed to accommodate Christmas trees and large seasonal pieces without a trip to the attic-an especially practical extension of the home's stepless design. Currently used as a bunk room and a tucked-away second office, this versatile space reflects the designer's vision for a lifestyle of comfort and ease. An oversized two-car garage with its own driveway serves everyday arrivals, separate from guest parking and the front entrance. Located approximately five minutes from the North Gate. Big Canoe offers a resort-style mountain lifestyle with three nine-hole golf courses, chef-led dining, boating and fishing on Lake Petit, a beach club, tennis, pickleball, a fitness center with indoor pools, miles of trails, and so much more to love.

THE STONINGTON - A LIVING WORK OF ART WITH SWEEPING LONG-RANGE VIEWS. Created through a remarkable seven-year collaboration between renowned American artist Bob Timberlake and acclaimed architect Stephen Fuller, this extraordinary 7,000+ sq ft estate is a singular expression of art, architecture and Appalachian craftsmanship. Originally presented as a Southern Living showcase home, The Stonington draws from the influences of Stickley and Frank Lloyd Wright while remaining unmistakably Appalachian. Its architecture presents four distinct faces, transitioning from Craftsman cottage to gracious wraparound porch and the strong character of a North Carolina mountain barn. The craftsmanship is increasingly difficult to replicate: hand-milled solid mahogany columns, solid mahogany doors, cedar board-and-batten siding, oak floors detailed with cherry pegs, distinctive bowed-and-pegged windows, custom balustrades and railings, distressed solid-cherry kitchen cabinetry, and handmade, hand-glazed EPRO tile. It is a level of material richness and artisan workmanship reminiscent of the great lodges and historic resort properties of the South. Timberlake's creation extends throughout the interiors. Offered fully turn-key, the estate includes his curated Lexington Bob Timberlake Collection furnishings, rugs, lighting, linens and accessories, along with a collection of Timberlake artwork that includes personally autographed pieces. The light-filled terrace level is a true extension of the home, offering a theater, wine storage, kitchen and generous living space for extended family and guests. Privately positioned on 1.7 acres atop Cox Mountain in the sought-after Big Canoe resort-like community, The Stonington captures sweeping long-range views toward Potts Mountain, Blood Mountain and the distant Atlanta skyline-yet is approximately five to six minutes from Big Canoe's main gate. Golf, tennis, pickleball, boating, fishing, mountain lakes, 27 miles of trails and chef-curated dining are all within one extraordinary mountain community. This home is a remarkable work of American mountain architecture, in a setting worthy of it.
