Several Greybeard staff and Realtors call Black Mountain home, and we can’t think of a better place to live. This new 3-bedroom, 3-bath home, 25 Lake Ave, is within walking distance of downtown Black Mountain, meaning new owners are just steps away from everything this fine town has to offer.
Constructed in 2013, this lovely home features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings. It also has a large covered front porch to sit and watch the world go by. That’s only appropriate as Black Mountain is viewed as the “Front Porch of Western NC.” With cork floors, granite counter tops and stainless-steel kitchen appliances, this carefully-crafted home offers modern amenities with old-style charm. The interior and exterior woodwork as well as the large stone fireplace work to give this home a great cottage feel. And the fenced-in backyard makes a wonderful area for children or grandchildren to enjoy. It’s only a mile from the Montreat gate which means new owners will be in proximity to the Montreat trails, some of the finest hiking in western NC.

Those of us that live in Black Mountain are always happy to talk about the quality of life we’re afforded here.

The home’s simple lines and numerous windows complement the flora and fauna as well. The street name of Kalmia is taken from the genus of the Carolina Mountain laurel that grows abundantly locally.

With the holiday weekend approaching, GreyBeard Realty wanted to take time to wish everyone a very Happy Fourth of July. There’s always fantastic events going on for Independence Day, and this year is no different.
Celebrations kick off a few days early with 50th annual Shindig on the Green on July 2. Bring an instrument to play or just bring yourself for this fabulous gathering of music producing and culture enjoying clan at Pack Square Park. Then, Pack Square Park has its annual fireworks display at 9:30 PM on Monday, the culmination of a day’s worth of activities including live music and food. Another option is the huge firework display after the Asheville Tourists’ game on Monday. If you’re interested in this be sure to purchase tickets ahead of time as they tend to sell out. Other 4th of July events include Chimney Rock Family Fun weekend and the annual Independence Day Fireworks hike with the Swannanoa Valley Museum, which requires advanced reservations.
Of course, GreyBeard welcomes you to our annual Montreat Parade of Homes on Sunday, July 3rd from 2-4 p.m. which features five Montreat homes for sale. To start the tour, simply go to one of the homes listed on the parade sheet, and you can pick up a map to the other homes. We will have representatives at each home to answer any pressing questions you might have. You may be able to make your own declaration of independence if you find your dream Montreat home.

If anyone ever questions the majestic beauty of Black Mountain, all you have to do is look at the long list of movies filmed in the area to know that we aren’t the only ones who appreciate the spectacular scenery that surrounds us. A quick glance at some of those movies confirms that western NC is a breathtakingly gorgeous place to live.
The latest filming is taking place right now across the western NC area including some scenes in Black Mountain. “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” hits the big screen sometime in 2017 and stars Woody Harrelson as a sheriff. There have been multiple local sightings of Woody, who debuted his Emmy-winning role on Cheers more than 30 years ago. It’s been almost 30 years since Dirty Dancing, filmed around Lake Lure, made its silver screen debut, and it was more than 35 years ago that Being There, starring Peter Sellers, was filmed at the Biltmore. In addition to Hunger Games scenes, movies that include some locally-shot scenes include Forrest Gump, Patch, and Mastermind, which is set to be released this fall.
The long list of fantastic movies which have scenes filmed locally reminds us at Greybeard Realty of how fortunate we are to live in such an eye-catching and, in the case of these movies, scene-stealing locale. It’s just one more reason to move on up here. To try out living up here, you might want to stay at one of Greybeard Rentals’ long term rentals. And if you’re ready to make the move, look through our residential listings and see what catches your eye. And if you can’t make it up here right away, have a viewing of one of these movies so you can at least appreciate the beauty of the place vicariously.
