About this home

Set upon a private stretch of wooded acreage just across from the storied waters of the Ivy River, this elegantly rustic A-frame retreat offers a rare harmony of architectural character and natural splendor. Here, mornings begin with mist rising from riverbanks and the promise of world-class fly fishing just near your door. A generous side porch welcomes you home, while a classic front porch and expansive rear deck create a seamless dialogue between indoors and out. From the deck, tranquil river views and gentle murmur of flowing water form a captivating backdrop for alfresco dining or quiet reflection beneath a canopy of trees. Inside, wide shiplap walls and warm wooden floors evoke timeless craftsmanship. The soaring vaulted ceiling in the living room amplifies light and volume, while ample windows frame the surrounding woodland like living works of art. At the heart of the home, a striking fieldstone fireplace rises dramatically to the ceiling, an architectural anchor and gathering place that radiates warmth and authenticity. The open kitchen and living area are designed for convivial entertaining and intimate evenings by the fire. An efficient gourmet kitchen features a gas cooktop, farmhouse apron sink and thoughtful appointments that balance rustic charm with modern convenience. The main level offers a serene en-suite bedroom and bath, providing ease and privacy. Upstairs, an additional en-suite bedroom creates a peaceful retreat among the treetops, where vaulted lines and filtered light enhance the sense of escape. The lower level reveals a versatile recreation room, enjoyed as a bunk room, alongside a full bath and utility room, offering flexible space for guests, hobbies or relaxation after a day on the river. Outdoors, a dedicated fire pit area invites evenings beneath the stars, where stories are shared and embers glow against the woodland twilight. A haven of texture, warmth and natural beauty, this A-frame sanctuary captures the essence of refined mountain living, private, poetic and positioned for life along the river. House is being sold furnished.
