Oct. 5. A magnificent mountaintop estate known as Lazy Bear Lodge is on the market for $29.75 million—the most expensive estate property in the Carolinas. The home of the late Chuck Weber, a real estate developer who died last year, it sits on 5.86 acres atop a ridge in Linville Ridge Country Club at an elevation of 5,000 feet.

The estate is offered fully furnished, with an extensive Western art collection spanning three centuries.

Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s office in Asheville has the listing.

What does $29.75 million buy?

The 8,700-square-foot main lodge has a 25-foot-high, timber-framed great room as well as a dining room with a custom mesquite dining table by Taber & Co.

Outside, terraces capture 340-degree vistas of Grandfather Mountain. A separate entertainment house with 2,701 total square feet features a full kitchen, dining area, half bath, oversized fire pit, dance floor and surround sound. There is also a 1,006-square-foot Hobbit guest house and exercise home—carved into the side of the mountain with decking overlooking the forest.
