This gorgeous dream home retreat was designed by Edgens Herzog Architects, located in Lonesome Valley, a residential mountain community in Cashiers, North Carolina. The area is known as Box Canyon, which boasts the tallest wall of sheer granite rock face east of the Mississippi River, about 1,400 vertical feet.
Conceived as two main living areas, this home contains both a lovely great room with dramatic views of Cow Rock through the ‘jewel box’ Dining Room, as well as an open Kitchen and Keeping Area with doors that open wide to incorporate the large screened porch as well.

We are especially loving the delightful screened porch that is perfect for entertaining all year-round. A living and dining area is arranged in front of a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, providing an idyllic ambiance.
