Casa de Yayo - Lake Toxaway, NC

A gorgeous setting both inside and out, this luxury home on the shores of Lake Toxaway is a place for taking in the quiet beauty of the North Carolina highlands. In this blissfully tranquil spot, you'll have a small dock at the water's edge along with a canoe, a kayak, and life jackets to take out each morning.

This three-story, lakefront home is full of understated luxury and style. Begin each day on the ground floor, working out in the well-equipped gym (with two TVs), readying the canoe and kayak for a morning paddle, and sipping your coffee on the flagstone patio overlooking the lake.

Moving upstairs, you'll find the main living spaces on the third floor, including an inviting family room with a gas fireplace and foldable glass doors that open to a covered deck. Adjoining this room is an elegant kitchen with stainless steel appliances (including a French-door refrigerator and a gas stove), a farm sink, and a large island with bar seating. There's also a formal dining room and plentiful outdoor seating for evening barbecues prepared on the Big Green Egg.

As for the bedrooms, there are two on the top floor - one lakefront room with an en suite bathroom and direct deck access, and another bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a connected study that serves as a fantastic work-from-home space (with a computer, copier, and printer). The last bedroom - a bunk room - is on the second floor, offering a lake-facing play area for the kids.
