Details & Amenities
Welcome to your mountain retreat, nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with seasonal views and the perfect blend of comfort, function, and location! This meticulously maintained home offers effortless living both inside and out, just 15 minutes from Boone and Sugar Mountain, and 20 minutes to Blowing Rock or Banner Elk. Enjoy generous outdoor living across multiple freshly stained decks (April 2025), surrounded by easy-care perennial gardens, filled with native plants. Inside, you'll find a bright and open main level with large windows that fill the living, dining, and kitchen areas in natural light. Solid surface countertops and a gas range add a touch of modern convenience to the well-appointed kitchen. The primary suite and laundry on the main floor allow for true one-level living, while a second living space downstairs provides flexibility for an office, guests and hobbies. Designed for everyday ease, the home includes thoughtful features like a whole-house generator, central vacuum, large and extra-deep closets, pull-down attic, an encapsulated crawlspace with a unique “trap door” access, and dedicated workshop/hobby/storage space. Whether hosting a gathering under the handsome, oversized detached carport (which doubles as a covered pavilion) or enjoying a quiet moment with nature, this home invites you to relax in style. Short-term rentals are not permitted, preserving the tranquility of this peaceful community. Discover low-maintenance, high-comfort living in a central High Country location that truly has it all!
