Panoramic Long Range Mountain Views on 4ac, Hot Tub, Pool Table, Arcade, Firepit
New hot tub added November 15, 2024! Find the tranquility you've been looking for at Paddy's Peak, a custom energy star home located at the top of Paddy Mountain in West Jefferson. Paddy's 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 hot tub and 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 skee ball machine. The game room opens up to a den with a 65 inch TV with surround sound. The lower level also has a full bath and lots of games. You can get a great cardio workout on the elliptical machine before you start your day. If you must work, there is a dedicated work station with an adjustable height desk, keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
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, air fryer, 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, kayaking, and tubing all within a short drive. Downtown West Jefferson is also just an 8 minute drive, where you will find shopping, restaurants, groceries, an ABC store, and more. Or go shopping in Boone, just 30 minutes away.
Paddy's Peak offers the best of both worlds, a completely secluded mountain retreat to get away from it all, with the convenience of town less than 2 miles from the bottom of the mountain. Escape from the world and let the mountain air refresh you!
During winter months if it snows, you will need 4WD/AWD to get to the house as it is at 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.
Note 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, monitor bear activity, and if unauthorized vehicles are at the house when it is not rented. We do not monitor it while the house is rented.

The house is perfect for a family gathering.
Main floor is very open with an amazing view of the mountains.
Lower floor is great for children and adults to play games.
We all enjoyed our time at the home.
Very clean, organized, and fully stocked with everything we needed. The downstairs room was great for the kids. We loved the house and really enjoyed our stay!
What a beautiful home in a private setting! The views were breathtaking and the house itself had everything we needed. Would love to come back again some day!
House was just as described. Lots of room to spread out. We loved the view and the game room! Will be returning to this property and will recommend to friends. Owner was very responsive to all of our questions!
Spent our second Thanksgiving week at this property and once again had an awesome time. The house is perfect for our crew from 3 years old to 65.
The kids (little and big) once again loved the game room, while everyone enjoyed the views.
Thanks for sharing.
Great House, amazing 180 degree view of the mountains, amenities above and beyond expectation. We will certainly be back. Although we had a lot of rain over the weekend, a fantastic time was had by all. Best rainbow ever when the sun came out. Cheers.

This is a wonderful home that must be experienced to be fully appreciated. Beyond the mountain views that go on forever, my family appreciated the multi-level and expansive separate living spaces. The basement with its games was a great place for the kids to escape. It was especially appreciated given that we stayed during a period of inclement weather. The property manager was especially attentive and helped us with all questions/concerns in real time. 10/10 in every way.
Very clean, many extras in kitchen , scenery was breathtaking. Watched sunsets and sunrises from deck using the fire pit. Just beautiful. But I’m not used to mountains so Driveway was challenging at night for us.
Nestled in the picturesque mountains of NC, this vacation house offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Let's dive into the details:
1. **Breathtaking Views
The moment you step onto the balcony, you're greeted by an awe-inspiring panorama. The rolling hills, lush forests, and distant mountains create a postcard-worthy backdrop.
2. Cleanliness:
The house was spotless upon arrival. Kudos to the cleaning crew! You can relax knowing that hygiene is a top priority.
3. Convenience at Your Fingertips:
Whether you're whipping up a meal or brewing your morning coffee, the kitchen setup is excellent.
4. **Outdoor deck:
The spacious outdoor area is where this house truly shines. A sprawling deck with good seating invites you to soak up the sun. Imagine sipping wine while watching fireflies dance in the evening.
5. **The Achilles' Heel:
The beds, unfortunately, fall short. They're on the firmer side, which might not suit everyone.
We had a great stay at Paddy’s Peak! May be our favorite place we ever rented. The views were breathtaking. The kitchen was fully stocked with any utensil you’d need. Rooms and beds were comfortable. The game room was perfect for adults to play pool and enjoy themselves while the kids played.
Absolutely stunning views in a beautiful, well-appointed home! Great hiking nearby, ample shopping in the cute town of West Jefferson, and delicious food & shopping at Third Day Market nearby. The owners are a joy to work with and quick to communicate. We have stayed here many times.
The house was everything we could have asked for. The view was stunning and the hot tub and game room kept the kids entertained. Plenty of room for 3 families of 4. Communication with the owner was excellent.
The property is incredible and the view is spectacular. Would highly recommend for any size outing. If you want a nice workout, try the Paddy Mountain Trail, a new facility in West Jefferson. The host was very responsive.
This was a beautiful location, clean cabin, and great amenities. Everything we needed me more. We had a women’s retreat with 10 women, and there was plenty of room! Thank you for a great experience! We also enjoyed going into the town of West Jefferson to explore!
This was a beautiful home with am amazing view. We stayed a weekend with family and we had a wonderful time. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, appliances, dishes, and utensils, which made preparing meals so much easier. We look forward to staying again!

Our family loved everything about this beautiful home. It is very clean and worth every penny spent.
For the first time on a vacation we actually loved staying in, there was so much to do with the children in the downstairs arcade. The children enjoyed Smores by the fire overlooking the beautiful view. The house was very clean and sanitary we will for sure be visiting again soon!
We had the most incredible weekend at Paddy's Peak. The house and location are absolutely stunning! The host was very responsive and helpful, as well. You will most definitely need 4WD if there's any chance of inclement weather. We can not say enough great things about our experience. Look forward to staying at Paddy's Peak in the future!
