About This Home

As of September 2025

Tucked away on nearly 3 acres with 2 parcels, this mountain-style home offers unmatched privacy and stunning views of Hanging Rock from the secluded back deck. While it feels like a remote retreat surrounded by nature, you're just 15 minutes from downtown Boone in a well-established neighborhood. Outdoor living is exceptional with mature landscaping, multiple decks, shed, a covered gazebo, hot tub, stone patio with firepit, and space to relax or entertain. Inside, the main level features unique brick flooring that not only adds character but also acts as passive solar heat during the winter, thanks to the home's ideal south-facing orientation.
The sun-drenched dining room opens into the updated kitchen with a new (2024) gas stove, while the cozy living area offers a wall of windows and a remote-controlled fireplace, perfect for year-round comfort. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms—one with its own private balcony—sharing a full hallway bath. A separate third bedroom suite includes a large den with vaulted wood ceilings, built-in bookshelves, ample storage, and a spacious bedroom with another private balcony, full bath, and its own slider entrance to the parking area for added convenience. With over 12 years of excellent rental history, this home is not only a peaceful mountain escape but also a proven investment. Recent improvements include full exterior pressure washing, fresh gravel in the parking area, fresh paint, and updated landscaping.
