About this home

SIGNIFICANT PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Now offered at $799,000, this beautifully maintained mountain retreat combines the ease of one-level living with the flexibility today's buyers are seeking. Set on 1.8 acres in the desirable Walnut Creek community, the home captures breathtaking long-range mountain views, including a distant glimpse of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Designed with gathering in mind, the main level offers comfortable everyday living with the primary suite, laundry, open living spaces, and additional bedrooms all on one floor. Vaulted ceilings, a dramatic wall of windows, hardwood floors, and a stunning stone wood-burning fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the well-appointed kitchen features quartz countertops and a custom island designed for both entertaining and daily life. The primary suite opens directly to the expansive deck and hot tub, where mornings begin with mountain sunrises and evenings end beneath star-filled skies. The spa-inspired bath includes radiant heated floors, a whirlpool tub, and separate shower. The fully finished lower level provides exceptional flexibility with its own entrance, kitchenette, bedroom, bath, and laundry area—ideal for extended family, visiting grandchildren, private guest accommodations, or potential rental opportunities. With limited exceptions, most furnishings are negotiable in a separate bill of sale, offering a rare opportunity to purchase a largely turnkey mountain home featuring quality furnishings from trusted names such as Thomasville and Broyhill. Located approximately 15 minutes from Waynesville, this special property offers the peaceful beauty of mountain living with convenient access to shopping, dining, outdoor recreation, and the many cultural experiences that make Western North Carolina so desirable. Seller's next home is nearing completion, creating an exceptional opportunity for buyers ready to make their move.
