498 Proffitt Ridge Road

Perched on 9.1 acres of scenic mountainside property, this custom estate serves up incredible privacy and sweeping views of Cherokee Lake and the surrounding mountains. The birds may have the best seats in the house, but this is about as close as you can get. Fair warning: once you see this view, everything else is going to have a hard time measuring up.

With nearly 7,000 sqft of finished living space, there's room for everyone and every hobby you've ever sworn you'd stick with. Soaring ceilings, custom hardwood floors, built-ins, and a chef's kitchen with granite countertops and a commercial-grade range make entertaining feel less like work and more like your new personality.

The main-level primary suite has deck access and views that make hitting snooze completely reasonable. Upstairs, a loft with a full bath is perfect for guests or that ''quiet reading space'' you'll probably nap in. Downstairs, the mostly finished basement is ready for guests, in-laws, or anyone who's ''just staying a few days.''

Outside, oversized decks, professional landscaping, peaceful water features with fish included, and mountainside privacy make it dangerously easy to cancel your weekend plans. A whole-home generator keeps everything running, and a brand-new $100k standing seam metal roof installed in 2026 means one very expensive item is already checked off your list.

Then there's the two-story workshop with two additional garage bays and enough room to park a tractor inside. Yes, a tractor. Your regular garage suddenly feels a little underachieving.

Want even more? The nearby 4-acre lot offers potential access to the Legacy Bay dock, giving you the possibility of lake access and a place to launch the boat. Check out MLS# 306984 for a potential bundle, because apparently mountain views, lake views, nearly 7,000 sqft, and a massive workshop might not be enough.

Properties like this don't exactly grow on mountainsides. Come see it before someone else gets the view.
