Description
Welcome to Wildberry Lodge, an extraordinary mountain estate and established Bed & Breakfast opportunity in Leicester, NC, where breathtaking long-range mountain views, privacy, and unforgettable experiences come together in the heart of Western North Carolina. Surrounded by natural beauty yet convenient to Asheville, this one-of-a-kind property offers the rare combination of a luxury mountain retreat, equestrian potential, guest accommodations, and income-producing possibilities.
The impressive main lodge is designed for gathering, relaxing, and hosting, with multiple private en-suite bedrooms, expansive living and entertaining spaces, stone wood-burning fireplaces, a game room with bar, library, wine cellar, and inviting spaces throughout. The spacious BlackBerry primary suite feels like its own private retreat with a stone fireplace, kitchenette, luxurious bath, walk-in closet, and private porch overlooking the mountain setting.
A separate two-level guest house dramatically expands the possibilities. With kitchens, living spaces, fireplaces, private accommodations, and its own HVAC zoning, it is ideal for extended family, guests, vacation rental use, or additional Bed & Breakfast accommodations.
Step outside and the property becomes an experience of its own. Soak in the hot tub beneath the mountain sky, gather around the outdoor living areas, explore private walking trails, or escape to the property’s charming tipi tucked into the natural surroundings. The expansive mountain views are truly spectacular, creating a backdrop that changes with every season.
For equestrian buyers, the property offers a high-quality Morton horse barn, ample space for horses, and the opportunity to create an exceptional private mountain equestrian retreat. Additional storage and utility buildings provide even more flexibility.
Whether you envision continuing Wildberry Lodge as a Western North Carolina Bed & Breakfast, creating a luxury vacation retreat, establishing an equestrian estate, hosting family and friends, or simply enjoying an extraordinary private mountain sanctuary, the possibilities here are remarkable.
Wildberry Lodge isn’t simply a property—it’s a destination. A place to wake up to mountain views, gather around a roaring stone fireplace, ride horses through the mountain air, soak beneath the stars, welcome guests from around the world, and experience the lifestyle that makes the North Carolina mountains so special. Also listed as Commercial MLS #4417571.
