About this home

Less than a mile from Downtown Bryson City and the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, this newer-construction, established short term rental offers a compelling combination of location, accessibility, and guest-focused amenities. A standout feature is its handicap-accessible first floor, including a wheelchair ramp providing step-free access to the front door, wide doorways, and an accessible primary suite that allows guests with mobility needs to enjoy the main living spaces without navigating stairs. The property is offered fully furnished and turnkey, with rental-driving amenities including a private year-round hot tub, built-in fire pit with year-round mountain views, fenced dog run, high-speed internet, classic arcade game, and dedicated workspace. Its location near Downtown Bryson City, the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the area’s outdoor attractions provides multiple drivers of year-round guest demand. For investors, the combination of established rental history, newer construction, accessibility, and a strong existing amenity package creates a differentiated STR offering with additional opportunity for optimization. Beyond its investment potential, the turnkey condition, accessible main-level living, mountain setting, and convenient location also make it an attractive option for a primary residence or second home.
