The Lake Toxaway District

Brevard

Welcome to The Lake Toxaway District

Lake Toxaway
Mountain breezes, vivid, multi-hued leaves that paint a masterpiece each fall. Waterfalls, and freshwater streams that nourish one’s soul. This region of Western North Carolina, which comprises Cashiers, Highlands, Brevard, and Asheville, has garnered numerous accolades for its natural beauty, cultural diversity, recreational activities, and quality of life. The area has been voted a top place to retire in America. Attractions such as the Blue Ridge Parkway, Lake Jocassee, The Biltmore Estate, national forests, state parks, scenic waterfalls, charming mountain towns, and an endless supply of dining, shopping, and entertainment. There is an astonishing range of outdoor and cultural attractions, including world-class fly fishing, mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, zip lining, camping, rock climbing, white water rafting, as well as downtown music centers and breweries in nearby towns.

Whisper Hills is located in the Lake Toxaway district. This gated community is alongside Pisgah National Forest. Phase 1 is ready with 10 lots that offer pre-construction opportunities focused on cleverly and uniquely designed “Mountain Modern” villas.

The community was thoughtfully designed and planned as a mountaineer’s dream investment, retreat, and/or simply a great place to live.

Whisper Hills is planned to accommodate 80+ homes that will encourage and support short-term vacation rental homes. The proposed 1st Phase amenities shall include a Community Fire Pit, a Gathering Pavilion, Hiking Trails + a Private Trout Stream.

The In-house Professional Rental Management is an incredible perk for part-time residents and investors.

Step inside this one-level mountain retreat, waiting for you next to Gorges State Park, then hike out your backdoor and quickly access the park’s trail system! You’ll love the mature rhododendron and mountain laurel that surround this home, as well as the elevated fire pit area and spacious back deck. Cozy up to the stone fireplace under the living room’s vaulted ceiling with wooden beam accents. Enjoy evening cocktails on the back deck as you unwind and relax. Perfect vacation or investment property, as it is being sold turnkey and currently has a tenant in place through the end of November. The main house hosts a welcoming foyer as well as an open floor plan between living, dining, and kitchen. Down the hall, you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom with an ensuite bath, plus two more bedrooms that share a Jack-and-Jill full bath. In 2024 the garage was partially finished, adding a studio, a full bath, and a kitchenette. (No permits were pulled for this work, so this is not counted in the total HLA.) Thoughtful updates have been made adding style and modernization through wall accents, paint, fixtures, and design. The entry road is private and there is a shared road agreement in place. An easy 14-mile drive from both downtown Brevard and downtown Cashiers. New HVAC in 2024; baseboard heat and plug-in AC units for the bonus space.
