About this home
Escape to the woods at 898 Morgan Hill Road, a cozy mountain retreat perched on a wooded hillside and surrounded by trees, quiet, and privacy. Here, mornings can start with coffee on the expansive covered porch, and evenings can end around the fire pit or in the hot tub beneath the stars. And getting away from it all doesn't mean giving up convenience, the property is approximately 20 minutes from Black Mountain, 15 minutes from Fairview, and 30 minutes from Asheville. The cabin's warm interior offers an open main living area with plenty of rustic character, complemented by a galley style kitchen and a charming loft tucked above and accessed by ladder. The primary bedroom opens directly to its own deck, creating a private spot to take in the wooded hillside surroundings. A full basement adds an entirely different layer of versatility, with room for storage, hobbies, a workshop, recreation space, or the opportunity to create something more. Outside, the fenced yard and gated driveway provide a defined space around the home, while the expansive covered porch gives you plenty of room to settle in, enjoy the wooded setting, and take in mountain living in every season. Currently enjoyed as a vacation rental, the property has an established rental history and has received regular monthly maintenance and safety checks through its management company. Furnishings and contents are included, offering the next owner the opportunity to make the transition with much of the cabin already in place. Whether envisioned as a full-time home, mountain getaway, or investment property, this cabin offers a place to unplug, unwind, and enjoy a quieter side of Western North Carolina.
