About This Home

As of December 2023

Step inside this enchanting mountain cottage where time slows down and worries disappear. Tucked away amongst native trees and plants, enjoy the sights and sounds of the High Country from the front porch. As you walk up the stairs to the front door, a large picnic table, grill station, and sitting area make this spot ideal for birdwatching, sharing a meal with friends, or simply being content to be in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Inside, you will find that this circular house made excellent use of space and was remodeled from the studs out in 2017! Butcher-block countertops and plenty of cabinet storage in the kitchen, a spacious built-in breakfast bar provide convenient dining without rearranging anything. The living area is warm and inviting. Cuddle around the wood-burning fire during the cool autumn nights and winter snows. The bedroom and bathroom are just around the corner. The spacious bathroom has a walk-in tiled shower, stackable washer, and dryer. Snuggle up in bed and get a good night's rest after an adventurous day of hiking, fishing, or rock climbing. The lower level of the home is ready for someone to complete the vision of an additional 1BR/1BA guest apartment: a separate entrance and extra parking are a few extra perks. The floor plans are in the photos; look at what this space could transform into. A unique feature of this property is an additional flat lot just below the home. Sit around the fire pit to star at the stars, share ghost stories, and roast marshmallows. This property is the spot if you are looking for easy access and plenty of parking. The parking area accommodates four vehicles, and the paved road remains clear all winter. Mill Ridge is a wonderful community that offers amenities like hiking trails, access to fishing on the Watauga river, an outdoor pool in summer months, tennis courts and a clubhouse to host parties and visit with neighbors. Short Term Rentals are permitted and is located between Boone and Banner Elk.
