With pastures, springs, woodland trails, and expansive living spaces, this unique mountain retreat offers incredible potential for those seeking privacy, creativity, and room to make a home truly their own. Recently reintroduced to the market at a significant price reduction and priced below appraisal, it presents a rare opportunity in one of Western North Carolina’s most beautiful settings. PLUS IT IS PRICED WELL BELOW RECENT APPRAISAL. Inside, the dramatic great room spans nearly 1,300 square feet beneath soaring 20-foot ceilings, creating an open living space filled with natural light. Eight skylights and expansive windows bring the outdoors in, including some stained-glass accents. The scale of this space invites creativity—perfect for gathering with friends, creating cozy reading corners, filling the home with plants, or hosting unforgettable mountain retreats.

The main level offers a flexible layout with two spacious bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath for guests. The primary suite is privately positioned at the end of the hall and features walk-in closets nearby with an easy opportunity to create a connected ensuite bath and closet configuration if desired. The lower level expands the possibilities even further, offering two oversized bedrooms, a full bath, and an expansive mechanics/storage room with potential for a future kitchen or additional living area. This level could easily serve as a guest suite, multigenerational living space, or rental opportunity. A tandem two-car garage provides additional space for vehicles, workshop use, or hobby storage. Outdoor living is equally special. Expansive decks frame breathtaking mountain sunsets, while koi ponds, springs, and blooming gardens create a peaceful mountain setting. Three open pastures provide space for animals, gardening, or small-scale homesteading—making this property a true mini-farm and pollinator’s paradise. Recent improvements provide peace of mind and a strong foundation for the next owner, including a new elaborate plumbing system, a premium 2024 roof with storm-nailed high-definition shingles and high-flow ventilation, a new well pump with updated wiring, and a new storage building.
