For Sale

This is a good one. Superb quiet location just minutes to Boone or Blowing Rock. And too, if you are inspired by the wonder and beauty of expansive parks and forests, this location is akin to a beach-front property given that 4,300+ acres of Julian Price Memorial Park is just across the state maintained gravel road! The home feels like new and evidences quality craftmanship, efficiency, and versatility throughout. On main-level find spacious, open living/dining and kitchen area, hardwood (oak) flooring, tongue & groove (spruce) vaulted ceiling, gorgeous granite counters, gas stove & oven, dishwasher, wood stove. Walk out to either covered or open deck areas. Also main-level, primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower; walkout to covered deck. Utility, laundry, pantry, and an additional full bath on this level, too. The finished below grade area has full bath and own heat/ac zone control and separate entrance. This lower living space is routinely used for office work and for billeting family or guests. Workshop area is clean, dry and framed for conversion into garage. Quality construction with eye toward longevity and lowered maintenance: Superior Wall foundation, SmartSide siding, Pella Windows. Back outside: parking for 4+, storage shed with shelving, and from the detached open deck enjoy remarkable view of Grandfather Mountain together with a friend or favorite beverage! Oh...Consider a stroll into the forest wonderland: Hebron Falls, the Boone Fork Trail...or beyond. Beautiful out there. And it is, right there!
