The Black Bear is a stylish contemporary with rustic elements and an emphasis on ease of maintenance. The shake and lap siding, metal accent roof and decorative gable details are all constructed of materials that will last for years with minimum care. The floor plan is completely open with the great room and dining room blending under a cathedral ceiling. The massive screened porch is equipped with a wood burning fireplace and overlooks a rippling headwater stream of the Chattooga River. A true retreat, the lavish master suite offers an oversized walk-in shower and his & her walk-in closets. Two guest bedrooms and bathroom provide privacy in this split floor plan. An oversized bonus room and bathroom upstairs might serve as a guest suite or media room. The lower level of this beautiful home boasts a huge game room that divides two more guest bedrooms, each with en suite baths. Sliding glass doors open onto the patio and rippling stream beyond. We look forward to meeting you and showing you around this amazing village and special development only one mile from downtown Cashiers, North Carolina.
