About this home

Great new price and a $15,000 allowance towards buyer's expenses or upgrades. Escape to this beautifully refurbished and fully furnished mountain retreat set on approximately 4 private, unrestricted acres. With nearly 605 feet of road frontage, a road easement along the eastern border, and gently sloping terrain, the property offers exceptional flexibility for future possibilities. Relax and take in the surrounding peaceful forest from your oversized private back deck - recently upgraded with new decking and railings. The home has been freshly painted inside and out, and updates include a new bathroom cabinet and a spacious walk-in pantry with new LVT flooring, among other thoughtful improvements. Originally built as a 1950s mountain getaway, the home retains its authentic character with handcrafted doors, exposed ceiling beams, and wood-paneled walls, creating the timeless charm of a classic mountain lodge. A 2009 addition significantly expanded the home, adding an expansive primary suite with fireplace, a library, and a large bathroom. The lower level features flex space with a secondary kitchen and half bath, ideal for guests, hobbies, or extended stays. One of the home’s most distinctive features is the secret circular staircase hidden through the primary closet back door, leading to the basement. There you’ll find lockable storage rooms concealed behind a bookcase, revealing a steel security door and two secure rooms with shelving and gun racks—perfect for storing valuables. Additional highlights include a Generac gas generator for peace of mind during severe weather. Conveniently located with an easy drive to Brevard, DuPont State Forest, Caesars Head State Park, and the restaurants and shops of Cedar Mountain, this unique mountain property blends privacy, character, and modern comfort in an ideal location. Situated on Cedar Lane, a level gravel road maintained by the state, providing easy year-round access.
