About this home

Perched at approximately 4,550 feet in elevation, this beautifully updated Beech Mountain chalet combines classic mountain character with an extensive list of recent improvements. Tucked into the peaceful Charter Hills neighborhood, the three-bedroom, two-bath home offers a cozy mountain setting with many of the major systems and finishes already updated—making it an inviting option for a full- time residence, vacation getaway, or investment property. Inside, the home retains the warmth and charm of a classic mountain chalet while benefiting from thoughtful renovations throughout. The striking stone wood-burning fireplace and cathedral ceiling create a welcoming centerpiece for the living area, while new LVP flooring and baseboards, fresh interior paint, new window shades, and new furniture give the home a refreshed and comfortable feel. Both bathrooms have been renovated with new tile, flooring, lighting, and mirrors. The kitchen has also received a fresh update with newly painted cabinetry, new granite countertops, and new refrigerator, stove, and microwave. Beyond the cosmetic improvements, significant work has been completed to the home's major systems, including new plumbing and water heater, extensive new electrical wiring inside and out, new wiring from the utility pole to the home, a new service meter, and updated interior and exterior electrical panels. New baseboard electric heaters have been installed in every room, along with a Mysa remote thermostat system for convenient temperature control. Additional improvements include rebuilding the chimney and chimney cap, repairing cracks in the mortar, and deep cleaning the chimney stone to remove years of soot and staining. The exterior has been freshly painted, the front and rear porches have been newly stained, and exterior lighting has been upgraded. Ring cameras have also been added throughout the property, along with three new TVs. Outside, the deck and porches provide plenty of room to enjoy Beech Mountain's cool temperatures and wooded surroundings, while a seasonal creek along the property adds to the peaceful mountain atmosphere. With extensive improvements already completed, this home offers the character of an established Beech Mountain chalet without a list of needed projects, and the location makes it easy to enjoy everything Beech Mountain has to offer throughout the seasons. Pond Creek Trail is just a short walk away, while skiing and snowboarding at Beech Mountain Resort, hiking and mountain biking on the Emerald Outback trails, fishing, golf, tennis, and the many restaurants and activities around Beech Mountain are all within convenient reach. Beech Mountain Club membership eligibility provides the opportunity for even more recreational amenities.
