About This Home
Perched in the highly desirable Sorrento Skies neighborhood of Blowing Rock, this inviting three-bedroom, 2.5-bath mountain home blends warmth, natural light, and functional living with abundant storage throughout. With coveted southern exposure, the home is filled with sunshine, while expansive windows showcase the peaceful, wooded surroundings. The main living area is highlighted by vaulted ceilings and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and two stories of glass, creating a welcoming focal point in the great room. The layout flows effortlessly into the kitchen and breakfast area, offering an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
