About this home
Just 10 minutes from downtown Blowing Rock, this inviting mountain retreat enjoys a convenient High Country location approximately five miles from the village and only four miles from Trout Lake, the Blue Ridge Parkway and an extensive network of hiking trails.
Situated on approximately 1.99 acres, the residence offers 4197 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with a flexible floor plan ideal for full-time living, a seasonal retreat or hosting family and guests. The home is offered fully furnished, with limited exclusions, providing an exceptional turnkey opportunity.
Designed with comfort and versatility in mind, the home features three bedrooms and three full baths, with bedrooms thoughtfully positioned on both levels to provide privacy and flexibility.
The main level showcases an open-concept living, dining and kitchen area accented by rich Brazilian cherry flooring. Expansive wraparound decking extends the living space outdoors, creating an inviting setting to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. A one-car garage with approximately 300 square feet of additional storage offers abundant space for outdoor equipment and seasonal items.
The lower level is designed for gathering and extended stays, featuring a spacious family room, secondary kitchen, one bedroom, another sleeping/bonus room, a full bath and a dry sauna.
Outside, a level front yard, pull-through driveway and fire pit area enhance the property’s year-round enjoyment, while the gentle topography provides easy access in every season. Ideally located near Blowing Rock’s renowned shopping, dining and recreational amenities, this property presents an outstanding opportunity to enjoy mountain living while adding your own personal vision and update.
