Welcome to Serenity Ridge — Your Private Mountain Escape

Perched atop 19 private acres with panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Serenity Ridge is a spacious 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom retreat located just under five miles from charming downtown Banner Elk. Whether you're seeking adventure or tranquility, this inviting mountain home puts you within easy reach of it all — from award-winning wineries and cozy cafés to scenic trails and ski slopes. Just minutes away, explore local favorites like Banner Elk Winery & Villa, Apple Hill Farm, and downtown's vibrant mix of dining and shopping. In under 20 minutes, you can hit the slopes at Sugar Mountain Resort, offering year-round fun from skiing and snowboarding in winter to hiking and mountain biking in summer.

Unwind in Nature's Beauty
Set on a serene ridgeline, Serenity Ridge boasts spectacular, long-range mountain views — best enjoyed from the expansive, wraparound covered porch. Sip your morning coffee as the sun rises over the Blue Ridge, or gather around the fire pit for s'mores under the stars. A lower-level patio features a bubbling hot tub with unobstructed views, making it the perfect spot to relax after a day of exploration. Guests are welcome to enjoy the surrounding land, with hiking, exploration, or simply soaking in the peace and privacy of this secluded setting.

Comfortable Living, Mountain Style
Inside, the main level is open and filled with natural light, with large windows that frame the surrounding landscape. The living room centers around a cozy gas fireplace and flat-screen TV, with plush seating for family and friends to gather.
The well-appointed kitchen features granite countertops and a bar with seating for three, flowing seamlessly into the dining area, which seats eight. Also on this level is the primary suite, complete with a king bed and en suite bath with dual vanities and a tub/shower combo. A second queen bedroom with its own en suite bathroom is also on the main floor.

Entertainment & Space for All
Downstairs, the fun continues with a game room equipped with a pool table and another large flat-screen TV. Just outside, step into the hot tub and enjoy unmatched views of the surrounding mountains.
This level also features three additional bedrooms: one queen room with a private en suite bath, another queen bedroom with shared access to a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a third bunk-style room perfect for kids or teens with two twin beds and a twin-over-twin bunk — comfortably sleeping up to four.
