From the soaring, majestic peaks of the Rocky Mountains to the tree covered vistas of the Great Smoky Mountains, Therealestatehomeguide.com features extraordinary mountain and mountain–view properties. With the air clean and the mountain rivers running clean and cool, you’ll feel refreshed and relaxed in your highland retreat. Ideal for escaping the summer heat or skiing the season’s first snow, mountain communities are popular second home and vacation home choices.
Those who enjoy outdoor activities will be drawn to mountain living with its many opportunities for exploring the unique mountain flora and fauna through hiking, camping, kayaking and canoeing. There are a number of superb mountain golf courses with breathtaking scenery and dramatic vistas. Freshwater fishing and lake boating are always popular and winter months provide perfect conditions for skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts.
Altitude is an important consideration when looking for mountain real estate. Certainly, the higher above sea level your house sits can allow for longer range views, but also the air is thinner and the temperatures are cooler at the higher elevations. It’s not uncommon for mountain–view properties to enjoy unobstructed views extending 50 miles or more, giving owners a much sought after bird’s–eye perspective on the world.
The mountain regions are unique and beautiful, with forests of evergreen trees in the western states and trees giving extraordinary fall colors in the eastern mountain ranges. Waterfalls dot the countryside and wild rivers course through rocky canyons and dense woodlands.
You’ll find a wide array of architectural styles in mountain homes, including charming cottages, mountain cabins and elegant mountain side estates. Common design elements include oversized picture windows, exposed beams, stone fireplaces and natural wood floors, and of course, what would a mountain view be without a raised deck to enjoy it?
