About This Home
As of September 2024Discover this quintessential mountain retreat, a rare gem now available on the market for the first time. Tucked away in the serene woods of Found Forest, this 1974 cottage boasts breathtaking views of Whiteside Mountain and Yellow Mountain, offering unparalleled privacy and tranquility. Designed by the architect who played a key role in developing Found Forest, this two-bedroom, one-bath cottage exudes unique character and charm. The architect, alongside his artist wife, created a haven for their family summers, and their legacy continues in the cottage's distinctive style. With its rough-sawn pine boards and stone fireplace, the home embodies a true mountain aesthetic. The current owners have preserved its “shabby chic” appeal, maintaining the original charm with minimal alterations. The property is well-equipped for modern living with high-speed internet/fiber and paved roads leading directly to the driveway for easy access. Enjoy immediate connection to the neighborhood's trail system, offering hiking adventures right outside your door. Located just a ten-minute drive from the crossroads of Cashiers, you're conveniently close to local hiking trails, National Forest, and scenic waterfalls. Confident in the home's quality, the owners have conducted a pre-inspection report and priced the property to reflect its condition. While some minor repairs are needed, there are no major issues, making this a rare opportunity to own a truly unique mountain cottage. Don't miss your chance to make this charming retreat your own!
