About this home
UP TO $8000 SELLER CREDIT TO BUY-DOWN RATE OR USE FOR CLOSING COSTS! A Private Mountain Retreat Where Every Season Brings Something Beautiful! Tucked into 1.24+/- peaceful acres just minutes from Burnsville, this beautifully refreshed 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage captures the effortless charm of mountain living—lush privacy in summer, captivating mountain views in winter, and inviting spaces to enjoy every season in between. At the heart of the home, a stunning new chef-inspired kitchen pairs style with function, featuring a gas range, stainless steel appliances, beautiful cabinetry, generous workspace, and a welcoming breakfast bar. Just beyond, the light-filled living room invites you to settle in beside the gas fireplace or open the doors to an expansive covered porch that feels like an extension of the home. Imagine lingering over morning coffee as the mountains awaken, hosting relaxed dinners outdoors, or ending the day beneath the covered porch as cool mountain breezes drift through the trees. A lower patio offers another private outdoor retreat surrounded by the serenity of the property. The main level offers a comfortable bedroom with new carpet and two closets, along with an updated full bath. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms provide exceptional storage, while the full basement presents abundant storage and exciting possibilities for future expansion. A bonus room with sliding glass doors to the patio creates an ideal home office, studio, fitness room, or quiet retreat. Including a woodstove to offset heating costs in the winter. Freshly painted and thoughtfully updated with new lighting, easy-care flooring, propane for the gas range, and wiring/propane plumbed for a generator, this is a home where much of the work has already been done. Private without feeling remote. Refined without losing its cottage charm. Close to Burnsville, and only 20 min to Wal-Mart, yet wonderfully removed from the everyday. This is more than a mountain home—it’s a place to exhale, settle in, and savor the seasons.
