About This Home

As of May 2022

Location, Location, Location! Almost 5 acres of Valle Crucis RIVERFRONT on the Watauga River! This mountain dream is located only 2 miles from the Valle Crucis Park, Mast General Store & Valle Crucis Elementary School. Short drive to upscale dining & 20 minutes to downtown Boone and Banner Elk. Enjoy the winter with a 30-minute drive to the ski slopes. Many upgrades with over 2100 heated square feet & 1000’ unheated (ready to finish with a walkout basement overlooking the river), 4 physical sleeping areas (2 bedroom septic permit filed), 2 bathrooms, open living area, large master walk-in closet, and 700’+ of wood decking wrapping around 2 sides of the house providing amazing views of the mountains & river. Perfect location for a possible Airbnb rental as the home sits on over 332’ of riverfront. Enjoy the barn-style building down by the river to store all your canoes, kayaks, and outdoor gear. Plenty of space for family gatherings and fishing from the large boulders. Perfect location to grow Christmas trees as the land has been cleared. Watauga River Road is a scenic road perfect for cycling, running, and hiking. Wildlife can be seen daily from all over the property. A must-see!
