About this home
Some properties give you a house. 36 Woodrat Drive gives you your own little corner of the mountains. Set against the rolling landscape of Burnsville, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on approximately 1.4 acres, where open lawn, mature trees, mountain scenery, and the gentle flow of a creek come together to create a serene setting. Step inside and you’ll find a home designed for comfortable everyday living. The kitchen makes an immediate impression with rich dark cabinetry, abundant storage, recessed lighting, and a generous center island that creates a natural gathering point. Wood tones continue throughout the space, giving the home an inviting, grounded feel. The primary bath offers more room than you might expect, featuring separate vanities, plentiful counter space, and a large tiled shower that adds another layer of character to the home. Outside is where 36 Woodrat Drive really begins to tell its story. The spacious lawn stretches out beneath a mountain backdrop, offering room for gardens, outdoor entertaining, a fire pit, hobbies, or simply enjoying the changing seasons. Wander toward the edge of the property, and you’ll find the creek winding through the trees, bringing the unmistakable sound and atmosphere of mountain living right into your own backyard. A front deck provides another place to enjoy the surroundings, while multiple outbuildings add useful space for storage, equipment, projects, or whatever comes next. There’s a wonderful balance here: open space and wooded edges, mountain views and Creekside scenery, a comfortable home and land that invites you outside. At 36 Woodrat Drive, you’re not simply getting a place to live. You’re getting room to spread out, slow down, and enjoy a piece of the mountains that feels entirely your own.
