About This Home

608 Winterberry Drive - Spectacular New Construction in Waterfall at Lake Burton! Experience elevated mountain living in this breathtaking new home offering 5,119 heated square feet of thoughtfully designed living space plus two expansive outdoor living areas, perfectly positioned on a rare 289-foot-wide lot with phenomenal layered views of the North Carolina mountains as your everyday backdrop. The exterior impresses with timeless stone veneer accented by rich architectural details, including heat-embossed wood ceilings, beams, and posts on the expansive decks, while the upper deck is tiled for seamless entertaining and the lower deck is reinforced for a future jacuzzi. An inviting outdoor fireplace and ceiling heater make it easy to gather on cool mountain evenings, and the epoxy-coated garage floor and whole-house Generac generator add both practicality and peace of mind. Inside, the home combines modern luxury with mountain charm, featuring five spacious ensuite bedrooms plus two additional powder rooms-two suites on the main level and three more on the terrace level-connected by a wide staircase and stacked closets that also provide the option for a future elevator. Gorgeous 7" white oak floors flow throughout, and the vaulted primary suite is designed as a true retreat with dual vanities, walk-in closets, and private water closets, along with heated tile floors, a luxurious steamer shower, and a soaking tub perfectly positioned to overlook the mountains. Just outside the suite, a private beverage center with coffee station and wine cooler adds indulgence to your mornings. The chef's kitchen offers custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances, a walk-in pantry, and open flow into the vaulted family room where floor-to-ceiling Pella windows and doors frame the stunning mountain views. Two laundry rooms-one on each level-come complete with washers and dryers, while the terrace level is designed for entertaining with a large recreation space anchored by a stone fireplace and a full custom bar featuring a dishwasher, ice maker, and 108-bottle wine cooler. Built with lasting quality, the home is fully spray-foam insulated, equipped with a Bosch high-efficiency HVAC system and two hot water heaters, and finished with premium Pella windows and doors throughout. As a homeowner, you also have the option to join The Waterfall Club, unlocking exclusive amenities including an 18-hole golf course, four distinctive dining venues, a spectacular clubhouse, a state-of-the-art fitness center with an indoor pool and indoor pickleball and tennis courts, and access to the pristine waters of Lake Burton for boating, fishing, and other water adventures. Located just minutes from charming downtown Clayton, you can find boutique shopping, farm-to-table dining, and year-round entertainment while returning home to a private haven of tranquility and sophistication. 608 Winterberry Drive is more than a home-it's a lifestyle. Schedule your private tour today and experience the very best of mountain and lake living in Waterfall at Lake Burton.
