Find the tranquility youve been looking for at Paddys Peak, a new custom home located at the top of Paddy Mountain in West Jefferson. Paddys Peak is a secluded mountain retreat that offers breathtaking panoramic long range mountain views from 4,200 feet. The home is situated on 4 secluded acres and also has the convenience of town just minutes away, with West Jefferson located at the bottom of the mountain. Hike less than 100 yards up to the top of the mountain and enjoy a picnic overlooking the town of West Jefferson and a beautiful view of Mount Jefferson. Relax on the expansive deck and enjoy the gas fire pit table in the evening, or enjoy the view inside. The living room features a two story prow of windows, so you can snuggle up in front of the stone fireplace and still enjoy the stunning 180 degree views unhindered. In fact the front of the home is full of windows on all levels, so you can enjoy the beautiful views while eating dinner, relaxing in bed, playing pool, or even doing dishes in the kitchen.

On the lower level, you will find a bedroom with a queen bed and bunk bed for the kids to enjoy. Chill out while enjoying the view from the lower level game room which features a ball return pool table, an electronic double basketball game, a multicade arcade machine, and a kids skee ball machine. The game room opens up to a den with a 47 inch TV with surround sound. The lower level also has a full bath and a bookshelf full of books and games. You can get a great cardio workout on the elliptical machine before you start your day. On the first floor/main level, you will find a spacious living room with breathtaking views and a beautiful stone fireplace. The high end custom kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including a double oven, microwave, gas range, crock pot, electric can opener, blender, rice cooker, roaster, spice rack, VERY sharp knives and all the baking/cooking/serving dishes, utensils, kitchen gadgets and tools you need to cook a meal for a dozen people. In addition, there is a walk in pantry to store at least a week of food for a dozen people. The main level also features a master bedroom with a log king bed and private bath. Upstairs on the second floor you will find a second master bedroom with a log California king bed and direct access to the bathroom. The spacious bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub and large shower stall. The upstairs also has a second bedroom with a queen bed.

There is plenty to do in the surrounding area with easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, lots of great hikes, horseback riding, zip lining, fishing, and tubing all within a short drive. Downtown West Jefferson is also just a 5 minute drive, where you will find shopping, restaurants, groceries, an ABC store, and more. Or go shopping in Boone, just 30 minutes away.

Paddys Peak offers the best of both worlds, a completely secluded mountain retreat to get away from it all, with the convenience of town just 5 minutes away. Escape from the world and let the mountain air refresh you!

As of June, 2017: The entire road has been paved, making it much easier to access. Prior to this, it was a gravel road and difficult to access without 4WD/AWD. The incline is steep between the switchbacks, so low horsepower vehicles (small 4 cylinder cars) or vehicles with no weight on the drive wheels (pickup trucks) may still have difficulty getting to the house, although we havent had any reported issues from guests as of May 2018. During winter months, especially if it snows, you will still need 4WD/AWD, as you still need to drive up to the top of the mountain. If weather is of concern, please purchase trip insurance. We do not refund due to bad weather or difficulty getting up the road to the house.
As of October 2020, there is an exterior security camera under the deck pointed at the road leading up to the house. This helps us know if the road needs to be plowed in winter and if unauthorized vehicles are at the house when it is not rented.

We are a family of 4, all of whom love the outdoors. We fell in love with West Jefferson 15 years ago when we first visited for our 5 year anniversary, and have visited several times a year ever since. Over the years we've rented a large number of homes in the area, and always found them wanting in some way. We bought this land in 2005 and are thrilled to finally finish building the home that is our idea of the perfect getaway. The home is on 4 acres so is completely secluded and private, but is on the backside of the mountain next to West Jefferson so its just an 8 minute drive to the store if you need a last minute item for dinner. We've also made sure that the home has everything on the inside that we've missed in other properties such as sharp knives, a spice rack, electric can opener, lots of baking, cooking, and serving dishes, all the cooking tools you have at home, a roaster, a crock pot, a pantry to store enough food for 12 people, a table and eating area that can accommodate 10-12 people, spacious shower stalls with shower systems that include removable hand showers in all bathrooms, as many windows as we could squeeze in, great natural lighting throughout, and lots of stuff to do onsite. We hope you enjoy the home as much as we do and if there is something you'd like us to add, please let us know!
