About this home

Remarks: If it is a 3/2 cabin with a spacious deck and main living that overlooks the mountains with lots of privacy is what you desire, then look no further. This home is calling your name. There are so many flexible areas in this home, you almost feel like there are two homes in one. On the main level, sit in your attached sunroom and look out at the mountains through the large picture window. The pass-through garage has been sealed and repainted. It allows you to bring all your landscaping through it for easy access to a great, sunny area for your gardens thanks to the immense landscaping just completed. The lower part of the yard is screaming for a large firepit area or outbuilding. With easy access to Dillsboro, Sylva, Franklin, Cherokee, and Bryson City, and all the fun they offer, this home is perfect for those who like to explore Western North Carolina or want easy access to Western Carolina University. The young or young at heart will enjoy the Savannah Community Park with its playground, walking path, and covered picnic area along the creek. Make this updated home, thanks to the extensive improvements, your own!
