Embrace the beauty and tranquility of the North Carolina mountains in this Arts & Crafts-style home, built in 2005 and thoughtfully designed to take full advantage of its stunning natural surroundings. Nestled on an unrestricted 0.56+/- acre lot that fronts bold, year-round Buck Creek, this property offers the rare combination of privacy, convenience, and access to adventure-adjoining 31,071 acres of US Forest Service land. Located at the end of Big Buck Road, with only two homes beyond, this peaceful retreat provides a true sense of seclusion while maintaining easy access off Buck Creek Road. Enjoy mornings and evenings on the open and screened porches overlooking bold Buck Creek, where the soothing sound of rushing water sets the tone for relaxed mountain living. Inside, the great room features warm wood tones, hardwood floors, and a cozy woodstove-perfect for cool evenings or quiet gatherings. The entire lower level is dedicated to the primary suite, creating a private retreat complete with a gas stone fireplace, sitting area, ensuite bathroom with river stone walk-in shower, and tranquil creek views. A loft sitting area on the upper level provides a flexible space for reading, working, or unwinding. Spacious guest suite with an ensuite bathroom on the main level boasts a unique soaking tub and double vanity. Practical updates include a new 3-bedroom septic tank installed in 2024, two gravel parking areas accommodating up to four vehicles, and convenient access. Whether used as a full-time residence or a seasonal getaway, this property captures the essence of mountain living-private yet connected, serene yet close to amenities. Approximately 30 minutes from downtown Highlands for dining and boutique shopping, and 20 minutes from Franklin's "big box" stores for everyday needs, this home offers the best of both worlds-comfort, character, and connection to nature.
