About This Home

Mountain living feels effortless at 253 Farm Loop Road, where mountain views and an inviting sense of community come together in one of Banner Elk’s most sought-after gated neighborhoods, The Farm at Banner Elk. Built approximately four years ago and situated on a beautifully landscaped .58-acre corner lot, this three-plus-bedroom, three full and two half-bath home was thoughtfully designed for comfortable mountain living. A large covered front porch with two seating areas welcomes you home and provides the perfect place to slow down, enjoy the fresh mountain air, and take in the peaceful surroundings in this contemporary-style farmhouse. Inside, natural light fills the open kitchen, dining, and living areas through an abundance of windows, creating a bright and welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. Gather around the dining table and look toward Sugar Mountain, where you see the ski lift at the top of the mountain, a wonderful reminder of just how close you are to everything this area has to offer. The flexible floor plan provides plenty of room for family and guests. Two ensuite guest rooms open from their own foyer; a primary suite with sliding doors to the south-facing back deck invites beautiful views with your morning coffee. A quiet office space with custom cabinetry is perfect for remote work. Upstairs, a bonus room offers even more versatility as a game room, media room, bunk space, or second living area. Just beyond is an impressive 524 square feet of unfinished space, offering an opportunity for future expansion and additional finished square footage. A one-car garage opens directly into a spacious utility and laundry room, making arrival home after a day on the trails or slopes especially convenient. Central air conditioning provides year-round comfort, while a newly installed whole-home generator adds peace of mind. Outside, beautiful landscaping surrounds the property and a fenced backyard creates a wonderful space for children, pets and outdoor enjoyment. The home is being offered partially furnished, making the transition to mountain living even easier. Life at The Farm at Banner Elk extends well beyond your front door. This gated community is known for its beautiful mountain setting and inviting amenities, including three ponds, a community pavilion with a stone fireplace and grill, and an expansive green space where family and friends can gather, play, and enjoy the outdoors. Whether spending a quiet morning on the covered front porch, watching the seasons change across the mountains from the back screened-in deck, gathering with neighbors by the pavilion fireplace, or heading into Banner Elk for dinner, 253 Farm Loop Road offers the opportunity to enjoy the High Country lifestyle from this move-in-ready home in a truly special community. NOTE: Waiting on updated professional measurements. The tax office counts the second-floor space, but it is not included in the tax total on the professional measurements.
