About This Home
Tucked away at the end of a private lane and surrounded by 2.13 acres of peaceful forest, this beautifully cared-for 1930s mountain cottage is the definition of Western North Carolina charm. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, the home lives far larger than its footprint—thanks in part to its expansive screened-in porch with a gabled ceiling and year-round wooded views. The property itself feels like a small homestead: organic soil, established perennial gardens, herbs and raised beds, room for livestock or creative ventures, and two fresh mountain springs that frame the land. With no HOA and no restrictions, the possibilities here are wide open—gardening, small farming, chickens (coop and fencing already in place), additional structures, or simply spreading out and living quietly in the woods. A true slice of paradise, yet just 8 minutes to downtown Brevard. Inside, the cottage is warm, soulful, and open. Recent updates blend modern comfort with nostalgic character: freshly painted interiors, refinished spaces, updated brass fixtures, custom lighting, new kitchen hardware, and restored windows, flooring, and closets. The home is truly turnkey, with extensive system updates including: fully professional interior/exterior painting, HVAC duct cleaning, generator servicing, septic pumping, propane inspection, new water heater, a 2-year-old well pump, and a fully restored crawlspace with new insulation, vapor barrier, and a high-efficiency dehumidifier—ensuring clean air and peace of mind. Whether you’re searching for a full-time residence, a peaceful mountain getaway, or a short-term rental investment (allowed here with zero restrictions), this property is a rare and magical opportunity. A place that feels like a retreat — a sanctuary for healing, creativity, and transformation — yet still close enough to town to enjoy every convenience. This is more than a home. It’s a storybook cottage in the woods, waiting for its next chapter.
