6 Oak Ridge Trail, Black Mountain, NC 28711

A testament to refined modernity, 6 Oak Ridge Trail is a symphony of design in harmony with the Blue Ridge Mountains. Designed by Michael Neiswander in the Scandinavian Cabin style & built by Steel Root Builders, this home is a masterwork of craftsmanship. Its skewed cruciform shape gracefully balances public & private spaces. The communal wing opens to mountain vistas through expansive glass walls, dissolving boundaries between the interior & exterior. A rich yet restrained palette—natural concrete, oak, & shou sugi ban—creates warmth & continuity, with vaulted ceilings & minimalist details enhancing elegance. A sloped-ceiling corridor with charred wood panels links the private wing, where milk glass showers, porcelain tiles, & oak accents redefine luxury. Ash board-&-batten siding & standing seam metal roofing blend into the woodland. A subterranean garage & entertaining room expand utility without compromising aesthetics. More than a home, this is an immersive retreat.
