Property Description
Where the mountain meets the water. Tucked away in a private setting near the dam on 2.45 acres, this contemporary mountain lodge looks across calm, clear water to Smith Mountain itself. This is the builder's own home, and it was once featured on the Charity Home Tour. It's a one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat built for peace and quiet. The massive great room with 24' ceilings and its glass doors open fully to the deck, so indoors and outdoors become one space and the view comes right inside. At the heart of the room is a massive, custom-built Giles County stone fireplace inspired by the Grove Park Inn. Evenings mean a fire there while the mountain turns gold outside. Because the builder built it for himself, you can see the craftsmanship in every detail. Poplar bark siding wraps the exterior, and every exterior door is a custom Pinky's Iron Door, handcrafted in California. The kitchen pairs Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances with leathered marble and live-edge accents. From the kitchen, stairs lead to a game room and then up to four bedrooms that open to the space below, so the lodge feels open, connected, and full of light. Decking wraps the home for outdoor living, with a hot tub for stargazing on cool nights. Down at the water, the dock has a double slip, a lift, and a floater, ready for long days on the lake. The exterior was freshly painted, there is a low-maintenance Metal roof, and the driveway is new. You can keep it as a private retreat or use it as a short-term rental with Strong rental history. Homes like this rarely come along. Come stand on the deck and see the view for yourself. Often called ''The Coolest House on Smith Mountain Lake''
