FOX DEN: A rare Jim Fox modernist retreat, thoughtfully updated for a refined mountain-living experience. One of Fox's most striking installations, the structural concept is based on 4 intersecting planes offering unique angles & glass throughout to take in the splendor of the mountains and views. Located in the Town limits on Satulah Mountain at 4100ft elevation with long-range views of Whiteside, Chimneytop and Terrapin Mountains. Updates include all systems, windows, siding, kitchen, baths, upgraded finishes throughout and landscaping. The main level provides an open plan including the living area with an organic stacked stone fireplace, dining area, kitchen, and terrace. The custom kitchen hosts Bosch and Fisher & Paykel paneled appliances, Caesarstone countertops & Rohl fixtures that accentuate Fox's sleek cabinetry and skylight windows. Upstairs is the secluded primary suite with dueling triangular windows overlooking the forest. The en-suite bath has heated marble floors and a walk-in closet. An office or studio space completes the suite with a private loft perched above. The lower level boasts a lounge with a MCM Brutalist fireplace & dry bar central to 3 large bedrooms, each with newly renovated en-suite bathrooms and private decks. The large lower-level deck displays the impressive architecture of the house's cantilevered, diamond-design and can be used as an outdoor entertainment area for cooking, dining, or relaxing by the fire pit. This exceptional property is now ready for its next steward to carry it forward for the generation ahead. Fox Den has been featured in several books as well as Fine Homebuilding Magazine. Highlands, NC was ranked America's Best Small Mountain Town by Travel & Leisure magazine in 2023.
