About this home

Nestled in the heart of Jacobs Cottages, this charming home is located within a true storybook setting that captures the beauty and tranquility of mountain living. Begin your mornings with coffee on the deck, where peaceful mountain vistas create the perfect backdrop for the day ahead. Watch the frolicking birds: goldfinches, bluebirds, chickadees and more. Enjoy the ease of a walkable lifestyle—just a short stroll to the Black Mountain YMCA or nearby pickleball courts for recreation, and in the evening, wander over to Cheshire Village to dine in inviting restaurants and explore its specialty grocery store. Magnificent hiking trails are just a short drive away. The home offers thoughtful care and convenience throughout with a low-maintenance yard that is enhanced by beautiful native plantings, while trees were professionally pruned by an arborist in 2026. The exterior was freshly painted in 2026, and the roof was inspected with exhaust boots replaced in 2025. A termite bond is also in place, providing added peace of mind. All window treatments convey.This is a rare opportunity to experience the charm, comfort, and community of Jacobs Cottages—where every day feels a little more inspired. This cottage home has a bonus loft accessible by ladder that includes an additional square footage not included in HLA that is 105.8. That is an additional 105 square feet that makes the GLA 926 square feet. Also, short term rentals are allowed in the community.
