Welcome to Whispering Waters Estate, an enchanting property featuring sweeping Grandfather Mountain views and over 1,500 feet of river frontage along the pristine Watauga River. Nestled on meticulously landscaped grounds spanning over eight acres, this estate comprises several distinctive structures: the main home, the restored Old Shulls family general store, and the original Shulls family home. Originally a cherished residence, this versatile estate has also served as a horse farm and a picturesque wedding venue. The main residence, a mid-century modern design by renowned architect Gilbert Spindel in 1972, features three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a spacious great room with a custom fireplace, a kitchen, office and music room. The layout centers around a dining room adorned with transom windows and gorgeous slate floor. The historic Shulls General Store, circa 1860 has been lovingly restored, featuring original wide plank floors and feather board siding. It includes a kitchen, full bath, a guest suite upstairs, and an additional one and a half baths for the convenience of wedding guests. Adjacent to the store is the transformed party barn renovated in 2018 with brick paver floors, elegant chandeliers and vintage sconces. Originally a six-bay horse barn. Dating back to 1840, the third structure is the original Shulls family home, repurposed over the years as a garden shed with a two-horse stall. An evergreen allée hallway leads from here to the riverfront, with breathtaking views of Grandfather Mountain. This property invites creativity, ideal for uses ranging from a private estate to a potential restaurant conversion. The river frontage is leased for fly fishing, adding to its allure. Whispering Waters is a property that must be seen to be fully appreciated, showcasing unique architecture, thoughtful design, and limitless possibilities. Septic Permit cannot be found.
