About this home
Tucked away near the charming communities of Spear, Plumtree, Newland, and Spruce Pine, this well-maintained home offers the peaceful mountain lifestyle you’ve been searching for. One of the true highlights is the opportunity to sit on your front porch and listen to the soothing sounds of Henson Creek as it babbles nearby—a simple luxury that makes mountain living feel even more special. The home sits elevated above the creek, providing peace of mind after Hurricane Helene while still allowing you to enjoy the beauty and sounds of the water from your porch. And when it comes to storage, this property delivers! A detached garage with electricity and an attached carport provides plenty of room for vehicles, hobbies, equipment, or projects, while an additional wooden storage shed offers even more space. Convenience is also close at hand, with a nearby coffee shop and country store offering food, hardware, and everyday essentials. You’ll enjoy the quiet of a mountain setting without feeling far from the communities and amenities of the High Country. Well cared for and ready for its next owner, this property is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy creekside mountain living, abundant storage, and a convenient location all in one.
