What the Most Expensive House in North Carolina Looks Like

Author Maney
BEVERLY HILLS, CA - JULY 10: The gated entrance is closed to the Beverly House mansion of William Randolph Hearst and Marion Davies after the residence was put on the market this week for $165 million, the most expensive listing in U.S. history July 10, 2007 in Beverly Hills, California. The home, built in 1927, includes four houses, an apartment, and a cottage on 6.5 acres of land with three separate pools, 29 bedrooms, a movie theater, and a disco. Hearst bought the mansion in 1947 for about $120,000. Twenty years ago, the house went on the market with an asking price of $25 million, one of the highest at the time, but was not sold. So far, no U.S. home sale has broken the $100-million mark. John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy honeymooned at the estate in 1953 and later used the mansion as the West Coast campaign headquarters for the Kennedy presidential campaign. The estate also appeared in the film "The Godfather". (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)

Wonder what the most expensive house in North Carolina looks like? It’s an enormous mansion on top of a 5,000 mountain top in the North Carolina mountains. The nearly 11,000-square-foot home popped up on the market earlier this week. It’s listed for 29.5 million dollars!  The mansion has incredible views of Grandfather Mountain, other peaks and even uptown Charlotte. The brown lodge-style home in Linville is a little over ten thousand square feet.

“It’s an entire mountaintop,” she told the Observer. “It’s breathtaking.” And Weber installed millions of dollars of artwork in the home, millions of dollars in statues on the property — 34 in all — and millions of dollars in custom furnishings, Wright said.

The home sits about 80 miles away from Charlotte.  “The views are unbelievable,” agent Marilyn Wright of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty told The Charlotte Observer on Wednesday. The huge estate is on 5.6-acres, inside the gated Linville Ridge community.

The Charlotte Observer quoted listing agent Marilyn Wright as saying: “This luxurious lodge was designed to graciously blend with its breathtaking natural setting.” “Its practical living spaces, extraordinary décor and unmatched amenities are paired with a prime location to appeal to the discerning buyer seeking an elevated mountain lifestyle.”

Chuck Weber, was the owner of the home according to the Avery County tax records. He died at the lodge in 2021 at age 73 after battling cancer, according to his obituary. Weber made his fortune by building luxury apartments in Fayetteville and other communities.

Weber bought the property in 2018 for a little over a million dollars. He tore down all the structures there and built his dream home…hmm hmm… his dream mansion.
